The Labour leader produced 451 pages of previously-redacted notes which he said proved Boris Johnson was lying when he claimed the health service was not " up for sale ". The document provided details of six meetings over a two-year period between UK and American officials.  Mr Corbyn said it " pulls back the curtain " on Conservative plans to give American corporations access to the NHS once the UK leaves the EU.

On November, 23, Wikileaks published an e-mail, sent by a member of an OPCW fact-finding mission to Syria to his superiors, in which he expresses his gravest concern over intentional bias introduced to a redacted version of the report he co-authored. The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons sent a team of experts to investigate allegations that a chemical attack took place in the Syrian city of Douma on the 7th of April 2018. The author of the e-mail was a member of that team and claims the redacted preliminary version of the report, misrepresents the facts he and his colleagues discovered on the ground. The e-mail is dated 22nd of June. It is addressed to Robert Fairweather, Chief of Cabinet, and forwarded to his deputy Aamir Shouket and members of the fact-finding mission to Douma. He says this misrepresentation was achieved by selective omission, introducing a bias which undermines the credibility of the report. Further it is claimed that crucial facts, that

More than 60 doctors have written an open letter saying they fear Julian Assange’s health is so bad that the WikiLeaks founder could die inside a top-security British jail. The 48-year-old Australian is still fighting a US bid to extradite him from Britain on charges filed under the Espionage Act that could see him given a sentence of up to 175 years in a US prison. In the letter to the British home secretary, Priti Patel, the doctors called for Assange to be moved from Belmarsh prison in southeast London to a university teaching hospital. They based their assessment on “ harrowing eyewitness accounts ” of his 21 October court appearance in London and a 1 November report by Nils Melzer, the United Nations special rapporteur on torture. The independent UN rights expert said Assange’s “ continued exposure to arbitrariness and abuse may soon end up costing his life ”.

Calling Corbyn “ mendacious ” and warning that the election result would serve as a measure of Britain’s “ moral compass ”, he urged the public to “ vote with their conscience ”.  His intervention followed

She referred to Maduro’s elected government as a “ regime ” and called for “ supporting regional efforts to negotiate a political transition. ” Echoing the rhetoric of neoconservatives in Washington, Warren called for “ contain[ing
