        .
        A source close to Skripal has said he was investigating the collusion
        between the Internet Research Agency, AIQ, Cambridge Analytica
        and its parent company, SCL.
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Gosh, it sounds to me as though you've misunderstood something.

            I recommend you reread those two articles by Carol Codswallop, slowly, and consider how the retraction might impact the argument she wove.

            Hint: it wasn't tangential.

              I recommend you read the "retraction" again, slowly, and consider how it might impact the allegations against Cambridge Analytica.

              Hint: it doesn't.


              The "retraction" was issued on 29th March. Since then we've also seen published:

              https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...idge-analytica

              Gove 'used Vote Leave data firm in secret bid to be PM' | Daily Mail Online

              https://www.upguard.com/breaches/agg...art-two-brexit


              I don't particularly think that anything will come of it, our government's too spineless, but it is an interesting exercise in seeing how dedicated Brexiters are to the idea of democracy....

                I'm starting to wonder whether you read any of the links you post. It is absolutely central to her conspiracy theory about the coordination between AIQ and CA, as noted by many other impartial commentators (Jim Pickard, Andrew Neil to mention a couple). Again, re-read the two stories slowly and comprehend them as they relate to the retraction posted, notably:

                [...] or otherwise been involved in any of the alleged wrongdoing made against Cambridge Analytica
                Seems to me that you and Carol Codswallop both, so very badly, want this to be true. I'm sure there's very little in between the verisimilitude of her story and your being wholesale "cheated" over the referendum result - one small step for remain...
