Cambridge Analytica

There was a woman going to another woman's house and showing her exactly what facebook held on her.

'Fraid not, dj. I'm not a TV watcher. I'll look at their website

Are you watching Channel4 news now, Maizie?

Cambridge Analytica knows nothing about me. I've done the test on newsthump!

Thanks for that MaizieD

Have also deleted his youtube history. I think I need to keep this for his dad to look at and check his computer at his house.

Yes, I saw that, Maizie.
In fact in the Guardian today is a pullout to tell you how to check what google has on you.
I do not use google if I can help it, but my grandson does on my computer.
Fortunately it's mainly maps and youtube. I have checked and they don't have much on my computer. Have deleted google maps history.

Follow this, Maizie.

Jacob Rees-Mogg said he'd become a Trappist monk if the result had been different.
Best reason yet for another vote on Brexit.

Well, I can barely believe what I'm reading here.

Our esteemed PM's response at PMQs to the allegations of cheating in the Referendum campaign

If anyone is suggesting these claims call into question the referendum, I say to them that the referendum was held, the vote was taken and we will be delivering on it.”

What a fine example to set the country...

Wylie on Newsnight.Once you've seen him you will not forget who he is or what he looks like.

Zuckerberg has agreed to appear before Congress, but not our parliament.

Zuckerberg is a coward. Good about advertisers refusing to advertise on facebook now.

Wow, whitewave.
I hope more comes from that.

Look at everything through the prism of the upcoming elections. Normal service with be restarted after May elections. Tories are scared to death. Look at the Evening Standards headlines. Wandsworth is under threat from Labour.

All power to the young energy of momentum

Very convincing speeches by Tom Brake, who proposed this debate, Ed Davey, Ben Bradshaw and others, but you could hardly call it a debate.

All the speakers were from the opposition except for Chloe Smith, the Minister who was obliged to respond and did so with an anodyne speech, almost certainly pre-prepared, showing no regard for the very serious issues which were raised.

Where are the Tory Remainers? Have Anna Soubry and her colleagues finally been frightened off ?

OK baggs I will give a brief resume

Chloe Smith speaking now and has just said she will not add anything to the debate that the prime minister said yesterday. So why is she bothering to speak?

people like me who have gaps...

More info attached to twimg stuff would also, perhaps, jog the memories of people like me to have gaps between their sallies onto threads like this.

Something I was taught when doing teacher training, ww, is "never assume", "nothing is obvious" (or self-evident).

I think that if you wanted to give sources you could. It's possible, for instance, to write one's GN post in a digital notepad (on iPad or whatever you're using) before posting it. Then you have time to find out and to quote sources properly. I often do that, as a matter of fact.

I did read that. Then I forgot names. I do other stuff as well as chat on gransnet.
