Optimistic as ever

I stand four-square behind you on this matter.

I think its an interesting issue. A lot of people who voted Brexit, were always voting Brexit - and had been against the EU for a long time (rightly or wrongly). The question really is how effective was such a ploy in affecting people who were less decided.

I've no idea, I have zero interest in Twitter. But if it is reasonable to assume someone or group will go to the effort and expense to utilise social media for political ends, and we've seen it used successfully, I think its dangerous to just dismiss evidence of foreign political involvement in creating political interference.

The Chinese and Russians have long been ahead of the curve in terms of utilising electronic based espionage - and a part of espionage is creating instability and manipulating other states (allied or otherwise).
