A second whistleblower comes forward In 2013, 23-year old CHRIS WYLIE, a Canadian data scientist who had worked on the Obama campaign, was recruited as head of research for SCL Ltd, a contractor developing military 'information operations' for the US and UK. Within months he met Steve Bannon and Robert Mercer to set up Cambridge Analytica - a 'propaganda machine' designed to win the 2016 US Presidential elections, using Brexit as its 'petri dish'. Now Shahmir Sanni, a young volunteer who worked with the Vote Leave campaign comes forward to allege that the Brexit vote was fixed and - by secretly overspending with a Cambridge Analytica company - the vote was rigged.
