Hi @jo_coborn, can you please ask @GiselaStuart about her relationship with AIQ? She was chair of Vote Leave and has refused to answer qs about criminal offences committed on her watch...
Can you please ask her about @michaelgove & @borisjohnson's involvement in the decision to give BeLeave £625,000 in the biggest overspending scandal in modern British history? Can you please ask her about her relationship with AIQ, the Canadian firm at the centre of this all?
Sorry, got your handle wrong @Jo_Coburn. To continue: we know from @VickerySec's work that @GiselaStuart also employed AIQ on ChangeBritain. This is the firm that has now been banned by ICO from working in UK and has been accused by Canadian parliament of lying.
The £ to BeLeave never went to the campaign. It was funnelled directly to AIQ. @shahmiruk has given evidence about how the overspending scheme was directed by Vote Leave's lawyers. Did she direct them? Did she oversee in her role of chair?
Can you ask her about her fitness to be the newly-appointed chair of FCO-run Wilton Park given the failings in oversight while at Vote Leave? The foreign secretary @BorisJohnson had ultimate say in this decision. Was this a quid pro quo?

Meet Victoria Woodcock. She was Vote Leave's operations director. She was also the admin for a shared drive that clearly showed BeLeave & Vote Leave were illicitly co-ordinating. Cummings' name was deleted from this drive after investigations began.
Here we go. Cold, hard evidence. Deleted by someone featured in this drama. It looks like obstruction of justice. It smells like obstruction of justice. And all those people up on screen have refused to answer questions about it...
"Where are we at, Parky?" First reference to Stephen Parkinson. Political secretary to @theresa_may. Special friend of @ShahmirUK. Used number 10 press office to smear & discredit him. Hasn't answered a single question. Close to certain BBC journalists.

I've seen C4's Brexit: An Uncivil War...& it's a brilliant, compelling drama. James Graham, the writer, captures the campaign's dark toxic heart & Cumberbatch delivers a stand-out performance. But it also whitewashes the deeply serious criminal offences we know were committed..
It's on tonight at 9pm & it's a must-watch. But @ObserverUK & many others (@DamianCollins @chrisinsilico @shahmiruk @AdamRamsay @PeterKGeoghegan @maryftz @JolyonMaugham @EmmaLBriant @Channel4News @brexitsham @tomwatson @peterjukes) are still struggling to try & expose the truth..
.@mrJamesGraham, the writer, hopes it will start a national conversation. I hope so too. Which is why I - & others - will be trying to livetweet the issues it raises, and offences it obscures, in real time...

Nice try, Tony, but that's bollocks
And @MattGarrahan, Tony Hall has now put @ft into an embarrassing position because you accepted his word and repeated it as fact which it's not so you'll need to add a clarification to this.
This is why it matters, Tony Hall. @afneil's casual misogyny opened a door for others. It gave them permission to abuse me & other women and a language to do it in. The BBC by failing to act implicitly endorsed it. And now, with this erroneous statement you've compounded it again

In his blog, Mr Cummings says AIQ "once built some software" for Cambridge Analytica's parent company SCL, in 2014, but suggestions the company shared data with Cambridge Analytica were "ludicrous". bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…
Leave . EU's co-founder Arron Banks said: "Leave . EU did not receive any data or work from Cambridge Analytica. "UKIP did give Cambridge Analytica some of its data and Cambridge Analytica did some analysis of this.
"But it was not used in the Brexit campaign. Cambridge Analytica tried to make me pay for that work but I refused. It had nothing to do with us."

NEW DCMS VIDEO THREAD -
The publication of the @ICOnews latest report on the use of data analytics for political purposes has left confused Brexiteers prematurely excited; they've failed to understand that it's still an ONGOING investigation...1/13
Paul Farrelly explores the possibility that Arron Banks made money selling insurance policies to millions of referendum voters which would have easily paid his ICO fine before Elizabeth Denham delivers some extremely bad news for Arron over the forthcoming LeaveEU audit...2/13
After delivering his public service announcement, an 'on fire' Paul Farrelly questions the ICO over the lack of cooperation from Alexander Nix, SCL, Cambridge Analytica, Emerdata and UKIP before moving on to Mainstream Network who has recently sent MPs targeted ads....3/13

NEW THREAD - Last week, the Canadian Parliament's ETHI committee continued their pursuit of the truth, regarding Aggregate IQ and Brexit, when they interviewed CEO Zack Massingham. It was brutal; because, as you can see from this previous appearance, AIQ had lied to them. 1/14
It's shameful that a group of Canadian politicians are doing the hand tied UK authorities work. From this hors d'oeuvres from Frank Baylis through to the main course by Charlie Angus, their pursuit of Massingham, who would only speak from his lawyers office, is relentless. 2/14
Ruthlessly persistent @frankbayliss continues to set-up Massingham, for questioning by other MPs, by repeatedly asking if the evidence of wrongdoing presented by @BindmansLLP is incorrect....yes or no. 3/14

 A thread to give an idea what is in the documents submitted by @chrisinsilico to @CommonsCMS this week in relation to SCL Elections, Cambridge Analytica, AggregateiQ, Global Science Research (Kogan’s Company), Kanto Ltd (The “Hon” Thomas Borwick & Vote Leave’s Ch Tech Officer
2/. There are also some rather interesting emails referring to the wishes of “Ambassador Bolton”, Trumps new National Security Advisor.

A Condifential advice to Rebekah Mercer, Bannon and Nix and some docs re SCL Social re training U.K. Intelligence Community in PsyOps.
3/. Try and hold off commenting for a short while as I anticipate it will need at least 12 tweets. I shall signal “End”.

So. To start you off a link to the docs released by the DCMS Committee.

THREAD: Cambridge Analytica appears to have used a Canadian company, AggregateIQ #AIQ, to cheat UK election laws to steal the #Brexit vote‼️ 1/

theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/m…
Vote Leave was the *official* #Brexit campaign, run by Boris Johnson and Michael Gove.🤔

Right before the election, Vote Leave donated a total of £675,315 in 4 donations over 8 days to BeLeave, a political org set up by two 21-something yo’s who worked for Vote Leave.🤨 2/
Quick digression on UK campaign finance law before adding to the story.🤓

The SPENDING limit for Vote Leave (official campaign group) was £7m. Separate campaigns (such as BeLeave) could spend up to £700,000 each, but CANNOT coordinate or “work together”.🤨 3/

.@stephen501 is another #leave voter who wishes he had the chance to vote again now the facts of what #brexit means are becoming clear. Good on you for coming forward Stephen, you are one of millions, just need others to show the same humility! #remainernow #finalsay #fbpe
Here is more from Stephen following his visit to Germany. Highlights the ideologues lies that EU will give us a good deal as they need us more than we need them.
Here is another tweet from #remainernow @stephen501 after he regretted his leave vote he wrote to his MP. Hopefully he can also help persuade other leave voters he knows to do the same now #brexitreality is hitting!
