Mysterious ‘chuck Chequers’ group spent £257,000 on advertising
A secretive campaign has spent more than £250,000 urging voters to back a hard Brexit, according to an analysis published by a parliamentary committee.
Damian Collins, chairman of the Commons Digital, Culture, Media and Sport select committee, said the secrecy surrounding the activities of the Mainstream Network underlined the need for Facebook, which runs the group’s advertising, to improve its transparency.
“The only people who know who is paying for these adverts is Facebook,” Mr Collins said.
The committee’s revelations are the latest to raise concerns about the role of online lobbying groups in influencing political opinion in the UK. The Mainstream Network case came to light as part of its wider inquiry into “fake news”.

Certainly, the website gives nothing away about who's behind it. http://mainstreamnetwork.co.uk/
