Please ask when BBC is going to properly cover @CommonsDCMS Reports on #FakeNews & DISINFORMATION including Cambridge Analytica & Vote Leave's AIQ!
@Channel4News exposé on #FacebookDanger2Democracy & #DeterringDemocracy again NOT reported by @BBCNews!
Apology to @carolecadwalla?

"Lord Sedwill is effectively dismissed as the Cabinet Sec does that not make the replacement much more of a COURTIER?
Jonathan Slater is dismissed as the SoS for DfE & replaced by the head of the Court Service does that not make her more of a COURTIER for the govt?
Tom Scholar is dismissed by a govt & replaced by James Bowler does that not make him more of a COURTIER?
Are you not worried about that?
GS: "these things happen in industry" & gives eg but says at 'that level' proper HR processes function
@LordCFalconer HR process absolutely NOT
Chair: Not with Tom Scholar
@LordCFalconer Not with ANY of them!

'The #PublicOrderBill..now been passed by Parliament in the UK, is deeply troubling legislation that is incompatible with the UK’s international human rights obligations regarding people’s rights to FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION, PEACEFUL ASSEMBY and ASSOCIATION.. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
It is especially worrying that the law expands the powers of the police to stop & search individuals, including WITHOUT SUSPICION; defines some of the new criminal offences in a vague & overly broad manner; & imposes UNNECESSARY & DISPROPORTIONATE criminal sanctions on people...

#ToryCorruption is endemic? @EndCorruptionUK @GreenJennyJones @PublicStandards @JolyonMaugham

@MarkFenhalls I'm sorry if you think I am going on about it. All I'm doing is saying that there was a democratic process, which we were party to for several decades: we were members of the EU, & we followed the lawful processes. We now have this body of law, which Parliament owns
and we are all looking for an opportunity for Parliament to say, “Let’s now take advantage of our departure from the European Union, put aside the conflict of the past and work out a better way.” We are all delighted by that. None of us is hostile to change...
