That list of EV charger FoIAs

A skim shows that far too many councils aren't keen to volunteer much :-)

Some even have the sheer bluidy neck to refuse to answer as they deem the question "not in the spirit of the legislation".

No usage stats that I could find - although a number volunteer "information not collated"

I've asked my local council ....

that voting thing.... I had several Tweets from the "left" in the run up to the election - including one from the Dear Leader Corbyn's official / personal account.

*None* came from accounts I follow and I didn't bother to screen shot them. Twitter must be able to infer quite a bit about me by various means likely age, location, political interests and rough income bracket. I also received several Tweets that were "promoted" as in paid for from the Labour Party.

One in four UK Facebook users had viewed a Momentum video in the final week of the campaign (according to The Guardian) - a number that I personally find astonishing.... I can't imagine they actually sought the video out - so it must have been foisted on them - and not in a random way either.

The temptation to mold social media (and search Hello Google) to the traditional MSM model and deploy as a "tailored broadcast" model is obviously irresistible .... and perhaps more to the point - deniability is built in, as almost any wrongdoing if planned properly can be vanished by a computer script at a preordained moment.

I hope The Electoral Commission doesn't need prodding to look into double dipping at polling stations - somebody with appropriate administrative credentials (and mebbe some SQL skill) on the database should be able to scope out the quantity of cheating in a couple of minutes..... I will not hold my breath for a result - since a single request for a criminal record for a visa application took 5 weeks.... which would mean that it'd take ca. 4 million years to check all voters (according to Sir Humphrey Appleby)
