      During Bojo’s intemperate rant to the Russians he accused them of Internet interference with the UK political scene. He obviously does not even bother to read the FT he is handed each day, as the FT categorically states that analysis shows that Russia did NOT interfere. Bojo obviously cannot break his fake news habit!

        He gets on very well with The Trumper, we are told.

        Has anyone seen them both together, I wonder ……

          I’ve never seen them in the same room as an off white cat, either. Or have I? Are they both bald?

          Arch Linux, on a Ryzen 7 1800X, 32 GB, 5 (yes -5) HDs inc 5 SSDs, 4 RPi 3Bs + 1 RPi 4B - one as an NFS server with two more drives, PiHole (shut yours), Plex server, cloud server, and other random Pi stuff. Nice CoolerMaster case, 2 x NV GTX 1070 8GB, and a whopping 32" AOC 1440P monitor.

              The FT seem to have pay-walled my link, so here is a link to the original research. link

              A summary of findings is towards the end.

              “… in our investigations of Twitter conversations associated with highly automated accounts we found little evidence of links to Russian sources. On examining a sample of YouTube links tweeted by Twitter users during the referendum we again found little evidence of Russian content . . .!

              There were however a very large number of other (presumably non-Russian) automated accounts ) that generated a lot of Twitter traffic, Maybe the Trumper was involved, as the Republicans make no secret of their dislike of the EU !!!
              .

                ” Maybe the Trumper was involved, as the Republicans make no secret of their dislike of the EU !!! ”

                That’s right Ed, and Obama tried unsuccessfully to dissuade the UK from voting Leave whilst in Office. my view is that I am against any foreign leaders trying to interfere in a UK public vote. They can express dislike of what they see happening as much as they like, but not interfere in our democratic processes.

                Obama lost some of my respect with that one.
