Interesting! We have a name. The fake protestors being hired for the fake anti-Qatar rally outside Downing Street...were being hired by Nepture PR, according to casting agency.
If you're coming to the story new, see the original thread here:
...& read @jimwaterson's account in @guardian here. Fake Twitter trending hashtags turned into fake protestors bussed into fake rallies today. What's next?
theguardian.com/world/2018/jul…
Important update! @pr_neptune has set up a Twitter account & is saying it's not true. They've tweeted & also messaged me that they didn't contract @extrapeopleltd to hire the fake protestors. So. @extrapeopleltd, back over to you...

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

Far Right 'Yellow Vest' protesters setting off smoke bombs outside Downing Street. Arrests starting to happen. Things are getting serious.
James Goddard and Far Right 'Yellow Vest' mates have no plans for protest lodged with police, so no idea their plans for the rest of the day.
Tommy Robinson's offsider, Danny Thommo', is at the protests having visited France to speak to Yellow Vest protesters there.

Leaflet being handed out at Palestine Solidarity Campaign rally opposite Downing Street claiming the infamous antisemitic mural Corbyn defended was not in fact antisemitic.
Text reads "Clearly the mural is a condemnation of the entire capitalist establishment. If Zionists are offended it is because they emphasise with that establishment"
Other side of leaflet, produced by socialist fight, calls for Marc Wadsworth and Tony Greenstein to be reinstated to the Labour Party (Marc at least was suspended for alleged antisemitism)

It's fun times in Brexit land once again - David Davis in front of Lords EU committee parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/5f…
DD says outstanding areas are N.Ireland, some remaining separation issues and governance of the agreement (ie is the ECJ involved).
On N.Ireland: We stand by joint report but don't agree with their interpretation of that - "a division of the kingdom". This is a nonsense and disingenuous analysis of their position but whatever.

And we're off. Contain your joy. May thanks "everyone in our country going the extra mile" to help people in the snow.
She says she has "listened carefully to all" the views on how to do Brexit. Must have missed the meeting.
She is now reading out seemingly all of the speech she made outside Downing Street when she became PM.
