Channel 4 have obviously put a lot of time any effort into investigating this. They're not going to let it go without a fight. If the evidence is and damming as it looks, I can't see how there aren't going to be serious repercussions.

What like a couple of advisers get the sack and take the fall with promises that this wont happen again?

It's not really news unless or until plod confirms an investigation.

Use the fact the BBC aren't splashing this everywhere the next time a right-wing frother tries to claim it's left of Marx
 
The BBC don't like broadcasting other UK media outlets news. There are loads of examples politics and non politics of stories going under reported because the Beeb doesn't like covering its UK competitors. Also if they haven't got there own voice, image or video they generally under report.

* beaten to it, doh'
 
To be fair, the Conservatives didn't win any of the seats mentioned so it appears it was all for nothing.

If they had won these seats & losing them could change the majority then I could see it having wider consequences.

Really whoever authorised it at the top (assuming they are breaking the law) should go down, but I can't see anything more than a fall guy being selection from the lower ranks.

Clwyd West was one of the 10 seats C4 know was targeted. Con Hold, majority down to 3,437.

It's also quite possible that the action influenced the very close result in Ceredigion.
 
Oh dear, the guy running the call centre is going to be the sacrifice and the issue will be swept under the carpet.

Data protection is serious business yet just about everything is farming user data and soon the snoopers charter also.

Apart from Twitter. They fall over themselves to report what's going on there.
 
Lucky that same government doesn't have the aggregate internet usage data/meta data of the entire country available, with virtually no judicial oversight...
 
Corbyn has today promised all 16 and 17 yr olds a minimum£10 an hour wage which is a 150% rise for some so once again he's cynically manipulating the young, the bloke is a dangerous individual who now seems to have gone nuclear.

Continued exploitation of the young is clearly the better path...

Or you know companies could just pay people better?

Or you know society should just accept that UBI/benefit schemes keeps people from burning your cities to the ground, just saying.
 
If he hadn't bribed students during the recent election May would have had her majority easily, the tricks the leftist establishment and media are pulling to try to prevent Brexit is quite eye opening. Trump and May seems to be the last stand against the globalist agenda.

Is it right that those younger then 25 have a lower minimum wage? The minimum should be reserved for unskilled labour and unskilled labour only. This will be fulfilled just as effectively for those who are 16 or 30.
 
indeed - I don't see why the minimum wage should differ for different age groups - it is supposed to be for the most basic of work that they could potentially find plenty of people to do

Agreed. All it does in encourage bad employers to keep employing under 25s and rolling through staff and repeat.

The majority of the media were running a smear campaign against Corbyn right from the off and Labour were going to go through with Brexit regardless, if anything you just said held any water then they would have been supporting the Lib Dems!

150% increase? All that says to me is some people are being paid as little as £4 per hour for doing just as much work as someone else purely due to their age. Would you work for £4 an hour?
