Remain may have spent more an appropriate and disclosed manner. Leave's spending was extremely shadowy. This article discusses just some of the subversion of the "marketplace of ideas".
'Remain' had an advantage on the amount spent so this question of national interest was never actually treated appropriately. 'Remain' were the only side who managed to get a leaflet through my door.....from the bloody government themselves....warning me of disasters straight away if I voted leave. Remain were and are just as big a load of liars as anyone else. I read the article.....sorry for the delay. It does open up several valid questions about media manipulation that is definitely something to look at. Media giants today are looking....first to restrict expression and opinion....under pressure from governments....and then to place as preference the views and opinions on things that governments...or themselves...ie silcon valley want....or indeed what some paymaster like leave or whoever want....I agree...I don't like manipulation for political purposes. That is something everyone should be concerned about. There should be a fairness.....but were you concerned about the unfairness given to the leave side? The government was biased on this question and didn't allow access to them....taxpayer money was used to fund the 'remain' side and not the 'leave'. Now, the article you linked to is under legal complaint but.....while my vote on Brexit was formed about ten to fifteen years ago it's definitely true.....and this is where we agree....that objectivity on social media is a problem. How we fairly proceed in doing something about that is a different debate.

They do have an agenda. Stop fascism. The fascists agenda, well that needs stopping. Unless you agree with the fascist agenda. So throwing objects and a few punches as fascists really works, right? It's not up to Antifa to police fascists. What sort of society do you want? Gangs attacking people in the street because they don't like what they say or what they look like? If you condone that Nick, you really are a knuckle dragger. And who are the fascists? Antifa shutting down Ann Coulter and Ben Shapiro's talks on campus. They are not fascists. Using violence to shut down opinion is fascism. So Antifa are the fascists, do you not get the irony?!! And if you think political violence is OK, then you agree with far right political violence too. Unbelievable.

If a bunch of kknuckle draggers want to walk through a town, people are more than within their rights to come out and tell them to sling their hook. People who do that are antifa in my book. Any evidence of antifa starting trouble? As for shutting down free speech, Milo himself has admitted he's a troll. In fact it wouldn't surprise me if he was actually Matt Himself. He's just using the platform for attention seeking imho. And it's costing a lot of money. How would you propose to rid the states of white supremacist groups? If they marched down your street would you not be miffed? I don't condone violence for violence sake, but if trouble breaks out...

French Resistance attacking the French State by targetng those who were part of the French (Vichy) Government. Political violence, innit. SAS shooting IRA suspects. More political violence. I have a funny feeling that one or two who have strongly disavowed all forms of political violence might be snookered now. Unless, of course, they are brave enough to condemn the above too. The first were actions in a world war backed by the allies. The Vichy government had no democratic validity and was there to carry out Nazi administration. The second was violence by the state to stop those planning to murder people. As usual Kermit, your comparisons suffer from crowbar noises. Edited by Stirlingsays (18 Oct 2017 8.25pm)

Ok, let's have less crowbar-ing. Oliver Cromwell - traitor or not?

You're just a dim witted political troll with few funny lines.....good for troll stuff but not serious stuff....I learnt that during the Gaza episode. Edited by Stirlingsays (18 Oct 2017 8.52pm)

If they marched down your street would you not be miffed? I don't condone violence for violence sake, but if trouble breaks out... Well how can left wing violence be OK and not right wing violence? Pure hypocrisy! Seeing as you don't know, Berkley, Oregan, Pheonix are some big examples off the top of my head. Google the details. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has denounced Antifa for its violence and threat to the public. She is on the sensible side of left wing politics. Answer my question, is Ann Coulter and Ben Shapiro, for example, fascists? Violence solves nothing in "ridding the states of white supremacist groups". If anything, it breeds more hate, more violence and more destruction. Antifa despise and attack cops too. They attack Trump supporters, capitalists or anyone who doesn't agree with their warped philosophy. Is that fair play also? One of the leading figures of Antifa is a teacher like you! Again, this post shows yourself up as a far left anarchist. Edited by Penge Eagle (18 Oct 2017 9.05pm)

Anyone to do with breitbart is a s*** stirring c*** who tries to appeal to the anti pc crowd. Ann Coulter. Can't say I know much about her but likes Trump a lot so can imagine some of the s*** she'd come out with. This is the same Trump who saw fit to mock the disabled. So yeah. Probably a bit fascist. When you say antifa, do you mean the whole movement ? Antifa is a catch all term for a whole range of left wing groups. Edited by nickgusset (18 Oct 2017 9.14pm)

So the anti-PC crowd and Trump supporters are fascists, according to you. Again, anyone with conservative views is a fascist in your book. What tolerant, diverse guy you are!

Stop putting words in my mouth. I'd hardly call the shock jock style of borderline racism conservative. You've been across the pond too long.
