Incredible! @DominicRaab was on the campaign committee of Vote Leave. He is actually implicated in the breaking of multiple laws. Yet he has audacity to suggest these offences are being ‘used’ to discredit the result of the referendum. No, Dominic. Breaking the law discredits you
OH. MY. GOD. @DominicRaab is a lawyer! So lawyer involved in breaking law says it’s okay to break law because the law has now been broken...did I get that right, Dominic?
So confused by @DominicRaab’s incisive legal mind here. So these laws (which you & fellow ministers broke), these laws don’t matter? What matters is British laws for British people. Except for these ones. Is that it?

Ugh. So here we go again. Major £££ Facebook campaign targeting dozens of Labour MPs. When is Britain going to wake up to what's going on. What went on. And how our democracy has been utterly corrupted & debased by Facebook
Constituents of target Labour MPs being sent these ads by right-wing group. Here's @YvetteCooperMP but there's dozens more. When will Labour wake up & see the issues we've uncovered aren't to do with party politics, they're to do with democracy
Loads more here...

NEW: Cambridge Analytica said US voter @profcarroll had no more right to know what data the company held on him than "a Taliban sitting in a cave". Today, it pleads guilty in case brought by Britain's ICO. This is a big deal. US citizens! You have..drum roll..rights to your data!
This has been a long haul for @profcarroll. We first wrote about his battle to get this data here. Today, Cambridge Analytica finally concede that he had a right to this data. Next question: will he actually get it?
theguardian.com/technology/201…
This all happening in the glamorous environs of Hendon magistrate's court. About as incongruous a location as you can imagine for qs about what data Cambridge Analytica had on 230 million US voters. Why was CA so determined not to hand it over? No answers to that today...

Instead of shitting on other journalists, Buzzfeed, why not *do* journalism? Your biggest investor sits on Facebook's board & is a close friend of Zuck's. He's refused to answer my qs about his sale of Facebook stock - right before Cambridge Analytica story first broke. Why?
You were the main publication shitting on the Cambridge Analytica story two years ago. "Snake oil"! "Conspiracy theory"! And you've been shitting on me ever since I published Wylie's story back in March.

It's all been just a bit odd

Liam Fox
Iain Duncan Smith
Dominic Raab
Michael Gove
Boris Johnson
Steve Baker
Chris Grayling
Priti Patel
Lord Lawson
and they randomly added Syria and Iraq to the map to make the prospect look even more unpalatable
turns out fake maps are easy to create

.@DominicRaab was on the Campaign Committee at Vote Leave. I assume he will be asked questions by the police due to the role he played. Why is he still in office? #Marr perpetuating doubt in democratic institutions by asking “Do you trust the EC?”. That shouldn’t be up for debate
But the fact that it has to be asked is so revolting. And his answers are ever more reflective of how far these people are willing to go to undermine our institutions. This ISNT a debate. This is the law vs. Politicians and people who broke the law or were complicit
Dominic Raab is basically arguing that it doesn’t matter if people break the law during an election. If you win, you win. Even if you cheated to get there. THESE are the people you want your children to look up to? To have as their leaders?

The Electoral Commission has asked the government for the ability to issue much more onerous fines...let’s see if they get it....
sorry meant to say “anti-establishment”
