Britain awakening to foreign companies interfering in their democracy thru Canada? US government and media still needs to notice that the prosecution of SCL by ICO for US citizens in UK signifies something distressing about democracy in America.
Kinda crazy that a US based show has not yet (to my knowledge) picked out the moments in the Canadian AggregateIQ hearings that apply to US elections in the way that LBC does for Brexit, above. There are many moments to choose from! And get Vickery on the the line. I mean really.
Just a taste of crazy clips to choose from

Criminal prosecution of Cambridge Analytica (SCL Elections Ltd) begins in UK tomorrow. It’s a crime to defy an order from the Information Commissioner’s Office. They refuse to disclose a complete US voter file despite a legal order from their regulator. ico.org.uk/media/action-w…
Meanwhile in the USA, our closest counterpart is the FTC and it is shutdown. Its Facebook Cambridge Analytica investigation is delayed. The FTC vs D-Link trial is now also delayed to the summer. #ShutdownStories
For the record, I won’t be attending the trial tomorrow, but I will share news as it comes in. I’m not the plaintiff/complainant here. This is the ICO vs SCL, the UK regulator simply upholding the Data Protection Act of 1998. Not sure if we’ll see Nix or Wheatland cross-examined.

Brexit movie premiering on UK TV now (HBO in the US later this month). Apparently, it’s a fictionalization first and foremost. #UncivilWar
Imagine casting Robert Mercer
HBO audiences in America would need an understanding of the British campaign finance law scandal that taints Brexit to spot it in this Easter Egg.

First President to engage in memetic warfare while holding a million federal employees and contractors hostage.
Trolling is Trump doctrine, leveraging Kremlin and DARPA methods.
The GoT wall meme is an intricately layered “in-group” cultural signifier. At the core it’s Trumpists vs everyone else, Us vs Them anti-immigration, those who get Game of Thrones reference vs those who don’t, those who spread meme to endorse it vs those who spread meme in dissent

I want to talk a minute about how #Brexit is viewed by most of the #Dutch here in the #Netherlands.

1/
The #Dutch are mostly bewildered by #Brexit and why anyone would want to leave.

We do have a small EU critical faction in parliament (PVV+FvD=32 seats out of 150), but 4/5ths of the electorate are either uncaring or moderately to rabidly pro EU.

2/
Our #economy stands to take quite a hit from Brexit. Up to a few percent, even.

economics.rabobank.com/publications/2… …

This is seen as a betrayal by most #Dutch, who take the
health of our economy very seriously, especially after supporting Britain's liberal ideas in the #EU
