@andyburnham appears to be playing a dangerous game. I am not saying that Putin didn't think about interfering in the Brexit referendum, and he may have fiddled at the edges of the debate, but if the insinuation is that Russians succeeded in swinging more than a million votes to actually fix the referendum, then this is garbage. I have seen no evidence at all. I strongly suspect because there is none. Burnham seems to be implying: the Russians interfered therefore the result can be overturned or at least ignored. There IS a much stronger case that Russian planned to, and did, interfere in the 2016 US election by hacking into the US Democrat Party servers to trash Hillary Clinton - which they did. I can believe that election was swung given the very tight margins. Evidence of some activity in the Brexit vote? Believable. Evidence of swinging the vote. None. But whilst he is at it, can he talk about the interference in the Brexit referendum from Barak Obama or EU leaders? Or China's influence now? Or human rights lawyers lobby's influence over the Chagos debacle? Trouble is, Burnham's interview will feed, IMHO, EU obsessives like Alistair Campbell - a man who arguably did more to damage British politics than other single individual. The agenda here is clear. Smear the Brexit referendum as illegitimate, and then take Britain back in, without a second referendum but after a General Election. I refused to believe that there was anyone worse than @Keir_Starmer. But Burnham's dishonesty and self-delusion are dangerous. Likewise our ugly and arrogant leftwing elites who believe their moral virtue and belief in socialism gives them the right to do what they want. Like I said, a dangerous game. #Brexit @haynesdeborah
