Did Russia influence the Brexit campaign on Twitter? (Fact or Fake)

.








.
Several studies published in the UK have recently shed light on the role played by fake Twitter accounts created from Russia during the Brexit campaign.

These revelations have led Theresa May, the British Prime Minister, to send a warning to Russia, accusing Moscow of planting fake stories in the media to influence election outcomes.

These accusations are very serious indeed. But they also need to be put in a wider perspective.

First, the majority of those fake Twitter accounts were created after the Brexit referendum. Their role in shaping the outcome of this election is therefore still unproven.

Second, the influence of Twitter and social media should not hide the considerable influence played by the tabloid press, which has considerable authority in Britain and has campaigned against the European Union for many years.

Most importantly, social media are probably only the tip of the iceberg. More serious suspicions relate to the funding of the pro-Brexit campaign.

According to an investigation by Open Democracy, mysterious donors based in Russia have helped finance UKIP, the leading party behind the Leave campaign.

If those accusations are confirmed, they could simply put in question the result of the referendum and potentially overturn Brexit.
