    It all comes down to how you then choose to use that advice from the scientists or even ignore it totally. What changed from 6.59pm last Sunday to suddenly tell people to go back to work on monday.....erm...erm...I meant wednesday. There are loads of examples of similar scenarios. You know that mate

    Well, it was you who mentioned 'knickers in a twist over nothing' referring to my post about social media then you mention Stramer and how the 'Tories stoop low'? That's a contradiction mate. I think both are wrong.

    The economy and the forecasts of flatlining. That's the last thing anyone would want.

    Well firstly it's from the Metro and that paper is only good for making those paper bricks for fires. Secondly, it says paid adverts. Labour use their activists very well and do all the work for nothing. I know this because I worked with one of them who spent half his life promoting Jezza. The activists flooded Facebook and other social media with their anti-tory posts. I mentioned it on here at the time. I don't care to be honest as the result was fair and Labour took the biggest beating in a generation. That wasn't social media that caused that, it was jezza.

    Right let's deconstruct this. The Metro thing is irrelevant, it's an independent report and as I stated was reported in a large number of publications. Yes paid adverts, by the conservative campaign, 88% of them that were misleading and or lies, Labours adverts were not to be misleading or to have lied, not one. I'm not calling you a liar but there has been no evidence or cases against Corbyn's campaign where they were found to have had activists working on behalf of Labour spreading misinformation and the hearsay of one person is irrelevant , plus there was a **** load of Tory supporters and that Russian report that still hasn't been released over Russian interference on behalf of the Conservative party, why not release it if there is nothing to worry about?

    Here's the big one, really you don't care that the Tory campaign was based on putting out misinformation and lying to the public, ****ing hell democracy is dead in that case. Lastly I think you underestimate the sway that social media has otherwise why such a large rise in funding to get adverts out there? What an awful lot of what the public think about Corbyn is absolutely bullshit, I think it was @bobmid who tried to get you to show one proven comment from Corbyn showing he was antisemitic and I believe he is still waiting, yet people still believe that.

    Your comment is very damming and does not reflect very well on you at all, you have made it apparent you don't care if the Tory's mislead and lie to the public to get a result, obviously they thought it was important to do so and would influence otherwise why do it at all.
