So the Tories have been running a dodgy twitter account under the name of FactcheckUK, peddling lies and misinformation as being fact and people believe that they are fit for government ??

The ruling party are nothing better than political scammers.

Not quite, they changed their twitter handle during the debates from CCHQPress to "FactcheckUK from CCHQ". It was changed back after the debate. Those rascals.

Load of fuss about nothing.

No they were defending the lies that are being peddled by Labour - whether that was the right way of doing it is open to debate. People take social media far too seriously.

The problem is that this is one of several incidents involving the Conservatives and their on line output. They are making Trump proud by using his tactics of constantly pushing the same lies in the hope that it becomes the truth to the electorate.
The way it is going in the USA it may not be Trump they will be negotiating a trade deal with and the democrats are not great supporters of Johnson because of his association Trump.

The Democrats have to come up with a credible candidate yet. The issue they have is Trump is very popular and he will be difficult to dislodge.

Like political parties spending tens of thousands on social media campaigns and adverts? Why do you think they'd want to do that?

Nothing to see, apart from the party of the current Government, resorting to schoolyard tactics for some more cheap publicity.
The same party who pretends that they want to crack down on scammers and on line abuse etc

It's not going to be a life changer but, is this really what we want from those trying to shape our country's future - I dont think so.

Lets all have a chuckle at those pesky Tories
