Morgan McSweeney has plans to fuck up Ukraine next

Morgan McSweeney is the man who manoeuvred Keir Starmer into power. At one time, this was something McSweeney could brag about; now it’s like admitting to being the guy who shat in the pool.

Not satisfied with bringing his own party to the point of electoral oblivion, McSweeney is now rumoured to have his sights set on Ukraine:

Haven’t the people of Ukraine suffered enough?

The above post finishes:

He is understood to be compelled by the question of how AI will affect the next election in Ukraine, which he believes will be one of the most consequential in recent European history

Friends believe he is interested in helping Zelensky in any future contest

Oh, we’re sure McSweeney is interested in how AI will affect the Ukrainian election. And by that, we mean we’re sure the wretched, little weasel will be the one using AI to affect the Ukrainian election.

As the Times have reported:

McSweeney, 48, is particularly interested in the role AI could play in elections in Ukraine. According to the International Panel on the Information Environment, an independent group of Swiss-based scientists, AI was used in more than 80 per cent of elections in 2024, when a record number of countries held contests.

It’s difficult to understand what this means, because there are multiple technologies we now refer to as ‘AI’. The reality is it’s probably closer to 100%, because Western politicians are inherently lazy and feckless people, which means many of them are using ChatGPT to write emails and respond to constituents.

The Times added:

Russia, along with China and Iran, has a well-documented history of using the technology to disrupt elections, particularly using “deepfake” videos and bogus images, which the average voter may find difficult to identify.

Russia, China, and Iran, is it?

Is there another country which has famously leaned into AI?

The Trump regime have also used AI to present a false impression of its political enemies:

AI is definitely a problem, but let’s be real; that problem isn’t limited to the countries that the newspaper people tell us to be scared of.

Morgan McSweeney’s History

The Times added:

In 2024 a Russian operation used AI and other tools to mount a disinformation campaign in Romania, leading a court to nullify the results of the first round. A Russian campaign also created fake videos in last year’s presidential elections in Poland that suggested Ukrainian refugees were planning to disrupt voting.

Give McSweeney’s record, do you think he’ll be countering disinformation, or do you think he’ll be generating his own?

If you’re unfamiliar with said record, here’s what Paul Holden wrote in The Fraud:

McSweeney joined Labour in the mid-1990s as a receptionist and then a member of the party’s media operations. During the 2001 election he was given the task of feeding data into Peter Mandelson’s famed Excalibur computer that stored information to be used by the party’s rebuttal unit.

He was storing information to use against political enemies, in other words — using cutting edge technology to enact Mandelson’s ‘dark arts‘.

Is this the guy we want to be experimenting with how to use AI in elections?

Holden also wrote:

McSweeney is a long-time protégé of Peter Mandelson, the architect of New Labour who, in February 2017, publicly bragged that he was “working every day” to bring down Corbyn’s elected leadership. That doesn’t sound very unifying. Mandelson has been quoted saying of McSweeney:

“I don’t know who and how and when he was invented, but whoever it was . . . they will find their place in heaven.”

If Peter Mandelson or Morgan McSweeney make it to heaven, we’re pretty sure that means all known religions are wrong, because clearly righteousness was never the point.

Holden additionally noted:

McSweeney explained that the Labour Together Project had two missions: first, it had to prepare for when Corbyn eventually stepped down, identifying and developing a candidate who could swoop in to take Corbyn’s place. This role would eventually be played by Keir Starmer. …

Second, Labour Together had to “ensure” that Corbyn “lost badly”, according to Maguire and Pogrund. Only Corbyn’s resounding defeat in a general election would remove him from the scene and trigger a new leadership contest.

That’s correct; Labour bigwig McSweeney sought to ensure Labour lost a general election.

How could anyone could trust this rat to help them fight an election campaign?
