Summary: Bristows LLP is at it again and it's getting pathetic, not just dishonest as usual

THE DELUDED-but-dangerous bunch we call (collectively) "Team UPC" keeps pumping Kool-Aid, sometimes into the corporate media. It's dangerous to their surroundings, not dangerous to themselves. They need to be rebutted, not ignored. They're like anti-vaccine and anti-climate science advocates. Ignoring them is a risk as that might give the impression that no refutation exists.

Recently we published "Prime Minister Boris Johnson Has Turned Into a Complete Joke the Cabinet Entrusted to Deal With UPC Limbo" and also said (a little later): "There’s also no mention of Boris Johnson’s corruption and nepotism which can further harm the UPC." This has been mentioned for about a month now, but the liars from Bristows LLP now pick some rather old news about Jo Johnson and spread lies about UPC prospects. "Mr Johnson’s reappointment bodes well for continued government support for the UK’s place in the UPC," they said on Tuesday afternoon (this time it's Edward Nodder's turn, nodding to the 'boss').

"These people lobby by lying, by fabricating, by corrupting."Johnson giving a job to another Johnson will harm the Ministry and also stain UKIPO's reputation. Before the constitutional complaint and many other barriers Johnson personally met a criminal, Benoît Battistelli, and then said some foolish things. Now Bristows quotes something which was said years ago: "It was during his tenure as IP Minister, in the immediate aftermath of the Brexit referendum decision in June 2016, that the UK (to the surprise of many) declared its intention to continue participation in the UPC project."

It's not possible. António Campinos knows it. The rest of the European Patent Office (EPO) knows it. Bristows LLP does want to 'know it'; it's intoxicated and it's 'medicating' itself with more of these Kool-Aid-type lies, which ought not spread to the media given Bristows LLP's track record of endless errors and never-ending false predictions. These people lobby by lying, by fabricating, by corrupting. ⬆
