Obscure pro-Brexit group spends tens of thousands on Facebook ads. The new rules do not force an advertiser to declare the ultimate source of the money for any political campaigns, meaning it is simple to place adverts with minimal transparency.

You can use many variations but here's how easy it is to get around these facile security measures........
And don't forget, because of Facebook's intransigence, over transparency of information only they hold, nobody knows if this scenario occurred in 2016, the Electoral Commission are unable to investigate Goddard Gunster, AIQ and others.

Andrew Bridgen peddling the false premise (lie) that leaving with no deal means, under WTO rules, we can have '10 years of tariff and quota free trade with the EU' whilst we negotiate a FTA.....this is rubbish @SkyNews @adamboultonSKY

NOT TO BE MISSED - The greatest scam in British political history.
A referendum result that would embarrass a third world banana republic isn't the will of the people and the EU and the WHOLE WORLD knows it.

In a bid to have this video retracted, Banks instructed his lawyers to send a letter over this, Verhofstadt ignored it; soon after the lawyers distanced themselves from the quite unbelievable Banks......

And you, Mr Paterson, are behaving as if the greatest electoral fraud in British history had never happened, a fraud designed to cheat and defraud the electorate of a true result, perpetrated by Vote Leave and its past and present Tory cabinet members.

Far too busy, along with David Davis and Shanker Singham of the IEA, lifting your skirts for The Heritage Foundation, a member of the Atlas Network along with the IEA, and Trump's government, in a bid to secure a US FTA at any cost to UK standards and jobs.
Whilst Owen Paterson and his ilk - and their counterparts on the left - continue to gaslight the nation, thankfully there are public servants who see through the extremist's Brexit bullshit:

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."

1/ If you don’t follow Brexit every day, here’s some advice. Let go of any illusions that this drama is about trade protocols, residency rights or the status of the Irish border. Brexit is the story of a proud former imperial power undergoing a mid-life crisis
2/ The rest of the world is left listening to Britain’s therapy session as they drone on about their ex-spouse, unable to see, admit or address their own flaws.
3/ The promise of Brexit was that it would make Britain feel big again. “Britain is special,” the Brexiteers assured British voters, who cast their ballots accordingly. But Brexit has proven that for the first time in modern history, Britain is small.

A quick summary of today’s team effort on Russia:

1. Two women close to #BorisJohnson worked for the Westminster Russia Forum. One, Saunders was schooled in former USSR, studied Russian & lived in Moscow.
Both work for Tories now, at least one, Symonds was bedded by BJ whilst he was Foreign secretary in his official residence.
Having a woman in the bed of FoSec & possible PM
would be a massive Putin coup if they are agents.

2. Dimitry Firtash is a Putin stooge, distributing Gazprom money into various political campaigns. His UK stooge is Robert Shetler-Jones who has given money to ex Party chairman Robert Halfon, ex former head of the Joint

Really sorry of you aren’t interested in Brexit but, well me, my friends and family have to live it and things are getting pretty fluid right now, so I wanted to pull some facts together about Facebook and the referendum that are worth bearing in mind. Thread! 👇
People like @Anna_Soubry and @ChukaUmunna have been making a good case for @peoplesvote_uk based on the idea that in the original ref people didn’t know what kind of Brexit they were voting for. This makes sense because some people voted leave expecting to stay in SM etc 1/
The problem is the counter argument is also good. The mandate granted to the ref was to decide whether we stayed or left and everyone involved was clear about that at the time. To those with a sense of proportion this isn’t convincing but Brexiteers are people of principle 2/

Once again the @frontlineclub is packed with journalists, @Byline_Media folk, and TV cameras for the latest revelations in the Cambridge Analytica / Trump / Brexit saga from two whistleblowers.

Follow this thread for live-tweeting coverage, and forgive my typos...
... first thing to note is that security has been increased a level or two since last week’s gathering. Two checkpoints against the guest list, and a minder scanning the room.

We’re about to kick off...
... the focus of attention tonight is Shahmir Sanni, joined again by @chrisinsilico who was the focus last week. @carolecadwalla will be joining later when she’s filed at the @guardian
Chris is carrying a large ring binder of documents...

50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica. Psych prof/developer Aleksandr Kogan accessed 270k FB users' data w his app, then collected their friends' data…& sold it all to Trump's data firm which used it to target ads in 2016 election theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
FB 2018: "We learned a psychology professor at the University of Cambridge named Dr. Aleksandr Kogan lied to us…by passing data from an app…using Facebook Login to SCL/Cambridge Analytica, a firm that does political, government… military work around the globe." FB knew in 2015
"purpose of Kogan’s work was to develop an algorithm for the 'national profiling capacity of American citizens' as part of SCL’s work on U.S. elections, according to an internal document signed by an SCL employee describing the research"– 3/2017 report theintercept.com/2017/03/30/fac…
