**clears throat**
Good evening guys! So over the last three months, I and my team @CivicMonitor_ have been working on a tool that I'm pretty excited to share with everyone today. It's called KYC (Know-Your-Candidates) - kyc.civicmonitor.com

**Thread
Everyone knows how important the #NigeriaDecides2019 elections next month are. Possibly most important since 99. However a lot of us cannot say what the candidates stand for on issues we care about - from health, security, power, education, corruption, job creation, among others
That's where KYC comes in. The tool uses technology to present information on the #NigeriaDecides2019 presidential candidates - profiles, promises and issue positions all in one place, to enable voters make more thoughtful and informed choices.
I think the most exciting thing about KYC is that it allows you to compare candidates side-by-side on any issue. Let's say you want to compare Buhari and Ezekwesili on Jobs, OR Atiku and Moghalu on Education. The results will bring their positions side by side for easy comparison
There's even a button underneath saying GO DEEPER. If you click on that, it goes beyond the summary to more substantive details on their positions. The @CivicMonitor_ KYC data is a comprehensive resource on the candidates. And it's all in their own words - no spin.
Excited about what KYC seeks to achieve for Nigerian voters. Pls 🙏let's all visit KYC.civicmonitor.com, use, follow,share. We'll be posting other data (infographics, teasers etc) on social media as well

Families are still being separated at the border, months after “zero tolerance” was reversed

Immigration lawyers say border agents are again removing children from their parents.
texastribune.org/2018/11/27/fam…
"The Trump administration has quietly resumed separating immigrant families at the border, in some cases using vague or unsubstantiated allegations of wrongdoing or minor violations against the parents, including charges of illegally re-entering the country, as justification."
They're stealing children and hiding it again.

"Over the last three months, lawyers at Catholic Charities...have discovered at least 16 new separation cases. They say they have come across such instances by chance and via their own sleuthing"

Beware: rather long thread, sorry!

Last Saturday, I marched alongside 700 000 people for a #PeoplesVote with a Final Say and an option to remain. It was such an incredible experience that I was still smiling the next day. And now I joined the @LibDems /1
Coming from a working class family, I'd always been Labour, whether in Germany or here in the UK didn't matter. Until I realised that @jeremycorbyn had done exactly what I'd been raging about concerning the prominent Brexit campaigners. /2
.@jeremycorbyn had been lying and @UKLabour did and still does nothing. There are still a lot of Labour MPs I consider decent, not to mention the over 80% of Labour members who also want a #PeoplesVote. I say decent on purpose because #Brexit is a deeply indecent concept. /3

Back-to-school #jobsreport shows a continue shortfall in public education jobs
epi.org/press/back-to-…
@EconomicPolicy (1/n)
This morning’s #jobsreport showed that the economy added 134,000 jobs in September, down from 270,000 jobs created in August.

Note: large revisions increased the August number from their initial report. (2/n)
This below trend topline number is partially due to Hurricane Florence, which made landfall during the reference period for this survey. Over the last three months the labor market has added 190,000 job per month on average, which is likely closer to the underlying trend. 3/n

Trump gives the first press conference question to One America News, the station that makes Fox look tough on him.
One America's question to Trump is what he would tell the American people about "the possibility of war in Syria," citing the Russian plane being shot down. "There's concerns by many Americans, most Americans, that we might be involved in a war in Syria soon." ???
The U.S is already involved in the war in Syria. Trump says "we have done a tremendous job" there and are "very close to being finished" "eradicating ISIS." (ISIS has lost almost all its territorial holdings, but hasn't been eradicated as an insurgent/terrorist force.)

The case of @lucyfrown and Tommy Robinson is officially a matter of public interest.

Sadly.

I saw this in my feed a bit earlier. I've been mulling over exactly what to say about it.

All I know is something needs to be said because this spat is ridiculous and unnecessary.
I want to preface this by making it absolutely clear. I have no "horse" in this race. I have been on good terms with the folks on both sides of this issue.

Please understand that it's difficult for me to do this sort of a thread because I know these people.
For people unaware. This feud between @lucyfrown and Tommy Robinson (i say that because by extension referring to his fanbase) stems from the decision to invite Ali Dawah to the May 6th Day for Freedom rally.
