EU to set up euro-election 'troll patrol' to tackle Eurosceptic surge - Telegraph
The Daily Telegraph has seen confidential spending proposals and internal documents planning an unprecedented propaganda blitz ahead of and during European elections in June 2014.
Key to a new strategy will be "public opinion monitoring tools" to "identify at an early stage whether debates of political nature among followers in social media and blogs have the potential to attract media and citizens' interest".
Spending on "qualitative media analysis" is to be increased by £1.7 million and while most of the money is to be found in existing budgets an additional £787,000 will be need to be raised next year despite calls for EU spending to reflect national austerity.
"Particular attention needs to be paid to the countries that have experienced a surge in Euroscepticism," said a confidential document agreed last year.Comment

Originally posted by xoggoth View PostOn the EU, if they had just gone more slowly and gradually relaxed migration rules as the economies in the East began to match our own, made sure that migrants integrated better, far more would be in favour of it.
It would have been very different if the government had decided to wait maybe 4-5 years, but instead the damage was done. So it wasn't the EU dictat but a sovereign choice, backed up by popular vote (9.5M votes for Labour in 2005).<Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!Comment
