Sorry to see @NewYorker in generally good article let Banks pretend that Cambridge Analytica went to HIM with the suggestion to fund campaign using illegal foreign funds, emails in my evidence show HIM asking CA for this. Here he was allowed to spin it. google.com/amp/s/www.newy…
Here’s the evidence to @CommonsCMS including the email from Banks to Cambridge Analytica and Bannon data.parliament.uk/writtenevidenc…
Here is @JaneMayerNYer reporting on the same based on my parliamentary evidence and her own research in @newyorker newyorker.com/news/news-desk…
And here’s @carolecadwalla excellent reporting on the same!!! theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/n…
Banks suggests funds from US, not CA in those early emails
We are still waiting for investigators to conclude on where Banks got his money- whether he DID obtain foreign funds. But he should not be allowed to spread the narrative that he didn’t ask, that CA suggested it not him, with all evidence suggesting otherwise!!!

IMPORTANT -> The Final Report of @CommonsCMS Fake News Inquiry is out!!! Among other things. Great to see it highlights my proposals for how to tackle conflicts of interest in the influence industry - will we now see action on this? #fakenews #disinformation #CambridgeAnalytica
@CommonsCMS The report recommends acting on these proposals - it argues that: 'Currently the strategic communications industry is largely self-regulated. The UK
Government should consider new regulations that curb bad behaviour in this industry' Read full report here: publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201719/cm…
@CommonsCMS It emphasizes: 'There needs to be transparency in these strategic communications companies,
with a public record of all campaigns that they work on, both at home and abroad.'

Great news!!!
I could not be more proud that my research helped expose this. Being the first to give evidence to the ICO and other investigations and inquiries on a far right campaign was more terrifying than you can even imagine ico.org.uk/about-the-ico/…
It’s been a difficult year but this makes the security issues, attempts to intimidate, death threats easier to bear. It took a while but I’m certain there will be more comeuppance for LEAVEEU execs #badboysneverwin

NEW: Cambridge Analytica employee who worked on Brexit is subpoeaned by Robert Mueller. This is BIG. Brittany Kaiser - who sat next to @arron_banks at LeaveEU launch - becomes subject of Mueller inquiry into Trump-Russia collusion 💣🔥🎆
theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/f…
This is Kaiser at the launch of LeaveEU talking about Cambridge Analytica’s work for the campaign. She gave evidence to parliament in which she said Banks had lied about the company’s involvement
This now the SECOND Cambridge Analytica employee to have been subpoenaed by Mueller. Sam Patten - whose business partner Mueller identified as linked to Russian intelligence - has already entered into a plea deal. Kaiser is first figure, however, linked directly to Brexit.

Cambridge Analytica’s Real Role in Trump’s Dark Facebook Campaign thedailybeast.com/cambridge-anal… via @thedailybeast
Now new data has opened a small window into Trump’s social media machinery, and in particular the role played by the now-defunct Cambridge Analytica.
Public statements and insider accounts have painted a muddled and contradictory picture on whether Trump’s Fb campaign targeted voters using Cambridge’s vast store of dubiously acquired data, once described by the company as containing 400 data points on 230 million Americans.

They are doing it again.

If you don’t understand the Paris & Brussels “protests” are manufactured & manipulated using the same methods & nudges of radicalization as in US, Brexit, Kenya & other countries then you have been sleeping.

Wakie. Wakie.

2/ Cambridge Analytica/SCL did this literally all over the globe.

Nix: "We just ghosted in."

And then manipulated the shit out of people using the same tactics we learned in fighting counter-terrorism and radicalization.

[NOTE: These pics are taken from actual SCL documents]
3/ Ex:KENYA but it's everywhere.

Exploiting tribal fractures.

"Those elements included social media videos that played to the fears of the electorate, warning that a victory by opposition leader Raila Odinga would lead to disease, famine and terrorism."

Cambridge Analytica had the Clinton emails more than a month before they were published by Wikileaks. So, let’s take a look back at our reporting at narativ.org with @ZevShalev 1)
CA-NIX-BANNON
In 2016, Cambridge Analytica, under the leadership of CEO Alexander Nix and vice-president Stephen Bannon helped manipulate the British electorate to vote for Brexit. 2)
Donald Trump paid Cambridge Analytica $6 million for work on his 2016 campaign. The company’s data scientists were able to figure out Trump voters who were “very low in neuroticism, quite low in openness and slightly conscientious.” 3)
