Very sensible article today by former Remain supporter @GregHands, who says he is “concerned at the continued attempts to refight the referendum and put the Leave campaigns in the dock” & says “we should all unite around getting the best deal for Britain” telegraph.co.uk/politics/2018/… This is a welcome contrast to the DCMS ctte’s report which says “the precise nature of the co-ordination between the different organisations and campaigns should be investigated further". This selectively ignores FB’s and ICO’s evidence (unless they wish to investigate Remain)

Story re Vote Leave/BeLeave ads is wrong. The ads were never requested by VL/BL & never ran. That's why they're in the 0-999 impressions box. Actual number was zero. Both Facebook (link, p3) and AIQ (attached) said this to the DCMS select committee in May
parliament.uk/documents/comm… Incidentally, I've been told that the DCMS select committee refused to publish AIQ's letter, so it's yet another example of a group of people conducting an "impartial investigation" but only listening to one side of the story... #DueProcess
