Yes, well worth a read.
I have heard/read bits about Cambridge Analytica etc targeting specific groups etc. but to get an understanding of the money men behind it makes for uncomfortable reading.

Probably the top 90% can afford to pay their way..... but they don't all do they?
Affordability doesn't come into it, it's the law, work and pay taxes in proportion.

Very interesting. It's actually not that different to what the likes of Murdoch or the Barclay brothers have been doing in the written press for the last 50 years, it's just digital propaganda for a digital age.

More barmy nonsense from JC today...
(Paraphrasing) "My most important job as Prime Minister would be to keep Britain safe. I believe we can learn a lot from recent history about how that is best achieved but a Labour government would also do everything necessary militarily".
The man is plainly a lunatic.

That's not the point though is it. It's finding the right balance between keeping them paying into our coffers, gaining the most possible to fund our services, before reaching the point they find it unpalatable and bugger off somewhere else and take their tax money with them. That's the pragmatic reality. No point having a huge tax on big earners, if there aren't any big earners left in the country to pay it.
Maybe they plan to stop them at the borders and take their money as they leave?

It doesn't actually say that though. Because it isn't true
Low tax = more investment is a globally prevalent right wing myth.

When the Tories decide to grow up and treat the public like adults instead of just childish insults towards any opposition and when they actually tell us what they are going to change for the better of everyone but mostly the JAMS, when they stop their constant lying and twisting facts to suit their agenda, when they admit that education and NHS will be properly funded as everybody knows it isn't and when they say something different than a strong and stable economy when so many are struggling, then I suggest that you and that total goon Hastings Gull keep your idiotic thoughts to yourself.
I have yet to see either one of you do anything else except follow your parties line and just slag off Labour rather than anything good that the Tories have done or will do.
Such a shame that the public believe what the Tories and our pathetic press say.
All I want is some honesty and facts from the Tories before I cast my vote, but I won't vote for a party that thinks it can say and do whatever it likes because they think I am stupid enough to believe them.
Don't bother voting at all then.

Wasting your vote then?
Kindly specify exactly which part of that statement is barmy or nonsensical, with reasons. That'll be difficult for you, I guess, bearing in mind that 'I hate Corbyn' or 'I'm just going on what the Daily Mail says' are not counted as valid reasons.
"Keeping Britain safe" is a top priority for any Prime Minister, wouldn't you agree?
PS. I won't be voting for JC either; that doesn't stop me acknowledging the fact if and when he says something sensible.

I predict the next thing Labour will propose is a national health system free at the point of use.
Foolish, impractical dreamers. You can't run a country that way.
As it is, even a rich country like Germany can't afford to end tuition fees, or nationlise its railways.

How is he "wasting his vote" Should he just vote for an immoral Tory party he doesn't agree with instead because it's the "sensible thing to do?" After all they are the "Strong and Stable" party that will sort out all the UK's problems!
Maybe he should just blindly voye Tory, whilst believing Labour are unelectable because the Billionaire/Zio owned & controlled mainstream media tell him so? God damn! when did the UK population become so dumbed down and as brainwashed as the U.S citizans?
I am fairly sure the core "inner ring" of the Tory party couldn't give a shit if many (if any of you) voting for them lived or died tomorrow. Infact they actualy get off watchign some of the poor suffer! I honestly believe Corbyn lives and dies for his morals and is the real deal.
You classing the poster on here voting Labour as a "wasted vote" just tells me how brainwashed you are! Yes, lets all vote for half human/ half cyborg T-9000 Theresa May and embrace her still undisclosed Tory manifesto/Brexit plan
**** me, what has happened to this country!

By Zio do you mean Jewish?
No.... Many orthodox Jews do not agree or condone the forcefull & capatilist nature of Zionism they are witnessing. In many ways it has mutated into a freemason kind of network where you have to be a paid up member to be in the club. Many of them are not of true Jewish heriitage/bloodlines. The main trick they use is if you are against the goals of Zionism you are an anti-semite. Which is quite frankly ridiculous!

And you think the inner circle of Momentum give a **** if any of their voters lived or died tomorrow, they are a self serving bully boy elite group who will gladly tread on anyone in their way.
