Peter Oborne: ‘Downing Street putting out Fake News’ ...

Here's Peter Oborne's full piece on the sickening collusion between senior media players and the Johnson administration. Oborne catalogues a series of examples where 'Downing Street sources' have used the likes of Peston, Kuenssberg, Robinson and Shipman to peddle lies and smears.
A remarkable article from one of the country's most ethical, though sometimes misguided, political commentators.
We are well down a very dangerous road where the Fourth Estate no longer speak truth to power. We need more commentators like Oborne shining a light on these issues.

Often overlooked (also in the video), is that British PM Tony Blair also repeatedly accused Iraq for having weapons of mass destruction BEFORE George W. Bush and Rumsfeld. For example in September 2002:
