Comments by "Awesome Avenger" (@awesomeavenger2810) on "Vote Leave fined and referred to police over referendum spending" video.
Channel 4 news, Shahmir Sanni (who seems to be enjoying the drama and limelight a bit too much), and many other interested parties are being economical with the truth here. Because finding ingenious ways to remain within campaign spending limits is very common. In both local and general elections. Check out BBC Newsnight's 'Michael Crick on election expenses 1997 - Newsnight Archives' report on youtube. You will see that altho this is not 'fake news', it is only telling half the story. Which is dishonest. Because a google search will bring up plenty of instances of all parties breaking campaign spending rules and being fined for it. But not one single instance of a general election result having been declared invalid because of it.
