The principles of an open democratic campaign totally subverted .. I know that members on this forum who believe in Democracy would wholeheartedly condemn this. |
Nonsense. Support for Brexit was there LONG before the idea of a referendum was put forward(eg 2010). Why shouldn't anybody and everybody be allowed to highlight a particular issue? How many people see, never mind pay attention to, ads on Facebook or anywhere else for that matter?
