but…
1/ I want to say a few things about how over-hyped I think Cambridge Analytica is.
1. They were working for Cruz and Trump beat him with almost no organises digital campaign.
2. By far, the best funded and most experienced digital team was Hilary’s, not Trumps’

"DO NOT CONGRATULATE," national security advisers wrote in Trump's written briefing ahead of call with Vladimir Putin. Trump congratulated. The notes said to condemn the attack of an ex-Russian spy in London with a nerve agent. He did not. https://t.co/HjCkbdkbb4

To congratulate Putin after his staged election and not to refer to his violation of US sovereignty and interference in our democracy is strategically lacking and a moral outrage. Whatever the President's motivation, something is seriously amiss here. https://t.co/5UwNIQ70zN

Fishism: condition affecting Leave voters since the Brexit vote.
Symptoms include:
● Irrational belief that our fishing industry – currently 0.03% of GDP – will replace our services industry – currently 80% of GDP.
● Talking jingoistic, xenophobic, anti-EU bullshit. pic.twitter.com/rsO33CKqMn— Damon Evans (@damocrat) March 20, 2018
Nice bloke at Heathrow currency exchange desk asks whether Brexit will be good for my industry. When I said no, disastrous, he said he asks everyone the same question: and Every. Single. Person gives the same answer. But a bunch of Old Etonian conmen think they know better.
