SCL, 'Strategic Communication Laboratories', Oxford Street, London, England: and actual 'Troll Factory' and global leader in 'election-influencing operations'
SCL, Parent Company of Cambridge Analytica, is Military-Intelligence Front For British Establishment [original title: 'SCL: A Very British Coup']The Guardian and some other outlets continue harping on about Cambridge Analytica and how it was the vehicle for a conspiracy between the pro-Brexit faction of the British elite, one of Trump's backers (Robert Mercer), and 'the Russians'.
Just spelling it out reveals how implausible that scenario is.
The real conspiracy is staring everyone in the face, but 'none dare speak its name': a network of British and American financiers, spooks, and civil servants who comprise 'The Swamp', aka the Deep State.
We would make just one small clarification to O'Hare's otherwise superb report: despite intense scrutiny, there is as yet zero evidence of Russian interference in others' elections/referenda. This suggestion - which is all it is - is itself part of a Western military-intelligence 'StratCom' campaign that actually began before Trump had even secured the Republican nomination, and was probably hatched in a 'strategic communications laboratory' in Washington or London just like SCL...

Taking things as a whole, it was quite clear at the time that Box 500/The Circus/etc did not want the GBP voting for Brexit. Likewise, Christopher Steele shenanigans etc, suggest they were none too happy with the idea of a Trump presidency either.
It's clear The Guardian is little more than an SIS mouthpiece. With a Brit media so chock full o' spooks, there's nothing that tells me Liam O'Hare isn't one.
Trendy spook vernacular. Apparently GCHQ is referred to as 'The Doughnut'.
Hell, I'm no expert on these things, I'm just a casual observer, but it was the spook-rich Guardian that 'uncovered' The Cambridge Analytica thing, and they've used it ever since as a tool to try and put forward this idea that Brexit-must-be-stopped-the-voice-of-the-mob-cannot-be-trusted, or so it seems to me.
