Brexit, Trump, Russia

Carole Cadwalladr and Peter Jukes present a bi-weekly podcast on Why Britain Needs a Mueller Inquiry

[Brexit, Trump, Russia @UntoldAnalytica]

Things are moving so fast, and democracy is in crisis, so rather than a series just on #CambridgeAnalytica the Untold producers have teamed up with @carolecadwalla to launch bi-weekly updates on the #Brexit #Trump #Russia scandal. Launching next week

I'm like a broken record but the difference between foot and mouth in 2000 is so marked. Despite all the government rhetoric, everyone in their daily lives is experiencing things like this that are completely at odds with it.

Just landed in London from Milan. Zero checks. No info. How can it be possible? #COVID2019

This is terrible. Google is taking advantage of Brexit to deprive us of our rights.

‘I have been refused citizenship in the only country I’ve ever lived in for 55 years’.

Anna Amato, an EU citizen in the UK since 1964, wrote a touching poem to her lost identity.

Brexit has affected many people much deeper than you would imagine.

They’re all realizing that live-tweeting from inside SCIF is a huge security breach and now they’re trying to tweet their way out of it.

Meanwhile there are still a few tickets left for a #Brexit #Trump #Russia event with @Billbrowder @DamianCollins @tom_watson and others in two weeks time https://t.co/eceMIZbHTk

[Peter Jukes @peterjukes]

One way to gerrymander a referendum: vast overspends on dark ads on social media combined with stolen targeting data, combined an illicit common plan with two Leave campaigns, boosted by US hedge fund billionaires and Russian troll farms,

That might work.

It's all in evidence

#BREAKING: Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort pleads guilty to one count of conspiracy against the United States, one count of conspiracy to obstruct justice, per @Reuters.

[Caroline Orr Bueno, Ph.D @RVAwonk]

Paul Manafort was not a coffee boy.
He was not a low-level aide.
He was not some hanger-on.
He was the CHAIRMAN OF TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN.
... and he just pleaded guilty to conspiracy against the United States.

Take a moment to consider how profound and unprecedented this is.

[Carole Cadwalladr @carolecadwalla]

Breaking news from #BylineFest. Deputy Labour leader @tom_watson calls for a public inquiry on Russian interference in EU referendum. This is significant.

[Christopher Wylie 🏳️‍🌈 @chrisinsilico]

The real "betrayal of democracy" is moving forward with a Brexit that was won by cheating, data crimes, Russian collusion, money laundering and the largest breach of campaign finance laws in British history. https://t.co/deHYbykY8d
