'The Harmony Party' is the personal fiefdom of John Urquhart (TheDryhtscipe) who set it up presumably as an antidote to all that was turning rotten in the Labour Party at that time. There were calls for a new 'people's party' and Urquhart clearly smelled a winner..
John and I mutually followed eachother. All seemed well. Then around a year ago, I stumbled across some tweets of his where he was being abusive towards @Rachael_Swindon and that he and a little coterie of his followers were attempting a pile-on.
I challenged him on this, at first he attempted to convince me what he was saying was true but as soon as I made it clear I didn't believe him he became abusive & I blocked him. It transpired that he had desperately wanted Rachael to join his 'Party' and was angry that she didn't
Around the same time (not sure if before or after but definitely connected) I was invited to join a Twitter DM Group by AwakenUnite. Very soon it became clear this was just another forum for stirring up hatred of Rachael Swindon! A number of clearly new troll accounts joined...
And immediately started bad-mouthing Rachael. I won't go into the details of their accusations as we've seen it all before, but I challenged them and then left the group. When I contacted AwakenUnite, it wasn't long before I discovered he was allied to Urquhart
So then he also became consigned to my very long list of blockees! Now it seems AU is masquerading as a member of @FreeNorthNow whilst his friend Urquhart tries to stir up hatred against NIP accusing them of ableism and undoubtedly racism will be next
These accounts exist to cause trouble and division amongst the left, whether it be over personal 'scores' they feel a need to settle, or more sinister organised trolling efforts on behalf of groups that are anti-left. This is why they target accounts with a lot of followers....
The latest being @LouiseRawAuthor, and having failed miserably to libelled her as part of the antisemism smearing, they are now accusing her of being a racist and/or 'defender of racism'. She most certainly is not. Nor are those comrades defending her and also being accused
So I end with this: You know who your real comrades are. You know who the 'good-guys' are. Please do not let these bogus accusations and bad-faith accounts convince you to turn against those who've had your backs for years. Report and block the trolls #Solidarity
