Cambridge Analytica misled MPs over work for Leave.EU, says ex-director | News | The Guardian

my notes ( ? )

Cambridge Analytica conducted data research for one of the leading Brexit campaign groups and then misled the public and MPs over the work ... the work with Leave.EU involved analysis of data provided by Ukip... Nix has repeatedly denied there was any involvement... "We have not undertaken any paid or unpaid work for them, OK?”...
Leave.EU did not pay for the work... she visited the offices of Leave.EU and Ukip. She said both organisations offered to share proprietary data with Cambridge Analytica’s lead scientist... she briefed senior Leave.EU officials [who] unexpectedly backed out of a contract... the data modelling work done by Cambridge Analytica for Leave.EU and Ukip in the run-up to the referendum was worth around £40,000.
