@Paulatics@mstdn.ca For Brexit, there was 1 official NO and 1 official YES, but they allowed unofficial groups to campaign on either side. There were strict limits on the official parties but not for inofficial ones. The SCL/Cambridge Analytica investigations showed that the official YES group used SCL. SCL used budget to pay other companies (such as Victoria's AIQ) to do ads for the unofficoal groups and shared data with them, thus breaking the firewall meant between official and unofficial groups.
