Dear @DavidDavisMP,

We heard your answers at @LordsEUCom today and we thought you deserved your own thread.

1️⃣ You’ve apparently only just become aware of the importance of #freemovement for @BritishInEurope. Better late than never, we suppose...

goo.gl/d9k3D5
2️⃣ But we do wonder if this is a little bit like how @AmberRuddHR wasn’t aware of deportation targets in @ukhomeoffice

3️⃣ Indeed, we’ve tried to tell you ourselves in person on many an occasion

4️⃣ The trouble is, unlike @MichelBarnier or @guyverhofstadt, you’ve always refused to meet @BritishInEurope and @The3Million

britishineurope.org/meetings-with-…
5️⃣ Undeterred, we’ve tried writing too ...

6️⃣ ... but, @DavidDavisMP, when it comes to #citizensrights, it seems that you ain’t even bovvered.
7️⃣ We’d love to help you understand our needs a bit better. For example, you might like to hear more of the real stories of UK citizens living across the continent

8️⃣ We‘d love to also explain there are many more unresolved #citizensrights issues than just onward free movement and voting rights (important as these both are)

britishineurope.org/where-does-the…
9️⃣ So, come on @DavidDavisMP, prove us wrong. Meet with us and @The3Million and show us you do actually care about our rights and our lives.

How about it?

Yours sincerely,

@BritsinGermany and the rest of @BritishInEurope

Yesterday's indictment is a major signal that we're nearing the end of the #TrumpRussia prologue.

I interviewed @Mimirocah1 about the story which she said indicates that "prosecutors are putting the pieces together."

I agree.

Here's my $0.02.

Why is Natalia Veselnitskaya's link to the Kremlin so important?

1 - SDNY provides Mueller with apolitical evidence sent from the target that predates all investigations.
2 - Proves Don Jr. met a Kremlin Agent
3 - Burns the Russian prosecution against @Billbrowder

2/
Natalia Veselnitskaya had been working on the Prevezon case for years, but in 2014 she involved herself drafting of the official response to the DoJ's invocation of a treaty for legal assistance.

She sent the evidence that she worked with the Kremlin to SDNY prosecutors.

The BBC is running a 'fake news week'. To mark the occasion, I thought I'd do a thread. 'Fake news' is a very unhelpful term, which describes at least three different problems, which have three different solutions. #Thread
There is monetised fabrication. People knowingly pumping out rubbish ('The Pope supports Trump') because it's a way of making money through Facebook / Google's ad-revenue model. My colleague @carljackmiller covered it brilliantly here for @BBCClick bbc.co.uk/news/technolog…
This is driven in part by programmatic advertising: ad-tech follow USERS around, and advertise on sites they visit, irrespective of how truthful it is. This is where tech solutions CAN work - ie de-rank / de-monetise etc. Some evidence that's working too. engadget.com/2018/09/14/fac…

Thread: I am hearing a lot of talk about a second referendum and going back to the question of reforming #freemovement, including this report from @sundersays on @nick_clegg's conversations around #Europe. I think this is a dangerous route to go. Here is why.
First, I am sure that governments across the EU have concerns about abuse of free movement. But this abuse, while serious, is marginal and receives very little attention from media and public opinion on the Continent.
Second, while some minor reforms to #freemovement are not only possible but also necessary, as @COdendahl and myself explain here - cer.eu/publications/a…, they won't happen any time soon and will surely be less likely to happen if a perceived 'blackmailing' comes from UK again

(THREAD) As many of you have become aware, many within the GOP are talking about a "memo" written by Rep. @DevinNunes. In fact, the hashtag #ReleaseTheMemo was trending on Twitter a few days ago. This thread will attempt to debunk that memo and show that Nunes is corrupt. (1)
On Wednesday, the @NYTimes reported that the memo questions a FISA warrant issued against Former Trump campaign advisor Carter Page. Page has been under watch of U.S. Intel since 2014, and the FISA warrant was issued in the fall of 2016. (2)
The Memo, written by Devin Nunes, alleges that the FBI/DOJ acted improperly in obtaining the warrant because they used information provided by British MI6 agent Christopher Steele who is famous for writing the Dossier. (3)
