Keir Starmer is not blameless when it comes to Brexit, but he is moving in the right direction. Even the Tories attacking him know that, says Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins
Do you agree that Brexit has been “a pointless waste of time, money and effort”?
I forgot how easy it is to rile up people for a cause they’re ignorant on by simply lying to their faces.
Not just lying, remember these are military psychological operations tactics being applied to the general populace. These messages, channels, and everything about it were gamed specifically to attack those who were most vulnerable to them.
Aaron Banks (now currently a Reform politican, thankfully he didn’t win a seat) and Cambridge Analytica wrangled the vote with illegal campaign spending and manipulation through targeted Facebook advertising (you can tell whatever lies you like if you only tell them to people who don’t question) in 2016. Then they assisted Trump in his 2016 election. Then Cambridge Analytica was disbanded, but the same people were in the background in the 2019 UK election, and again in the 2024 US election. It’s all the same backers, employing the same tactics both sides of the pond - like how they accused Jeremy Corbyn of antisemitism, then shortly afterwards tried to pull the same stunt on Bernie Sanders.
