How do you hold power to account? How? Because that's what journalism is supposed to do. But no-one is being held to account. These politicians lied. They lied and lied and lied. About immigrants. As one of their own was murdered. By a man who hated immigrants. 
How do you hold power to account? How? Because that's what MPs are supposed to do. But the man who created this campaign isn't being held to account. In report published today @CommonsCMS describes his "contemptuous" behaviour as "unprecedented"
Nobody has taken responsibility for any of it: blatant lies, blatant law-breaking. Remember: no-one will take responsibility for Brexit either. No-one will ever be held to account.
