More evidence that political social media ads need better regulation. The tories get caught spinning a negative news story as implied support for their education spending.

Pretty awkward for the BBC. One of the few times they explicitly publish stories openly critical of the Government and they get it twisted. If I were the head of the BBC I'd be livid.

"A spokesperson for the BBC said: 'We are looking into this matter.'"

Stinks of the information gathering and profiling by the Organization-Cummings used for targeting disinformation and rumours during his infokrieg in 2016.

I really hope the other parties "get it" and realise the remainers who didn't bother to  and those others who are persuadable vote in 2016 are the people they need to win

Even in the era of infokrieg the old American Civil War military doctrine of getting there "the Fastest with the mostest" applies as it did in 2016 (Nathan Bedford Forrest)
