Dear @RachelRileyRR Jacob Rees-Mogg repeats antisemitic tropes about George Soros. Boris Johnson does cosy deals with antisemites in Hungary. The Tory Party is run by and colluding with antisemites. Is that OK with you or is it only left-wing semitism you don't like? Regards, Tom

Dear Brexiters,@UKIP told you an EU deal could be "sorted in an afternoon".@LeaveEUOfficial told you EU would "beg us for a deal".@BorisJohnson told you we'd leave or he'd die in a ditch.@Nigel_Farage told you he'd never back Johnson's deal. Seeing a pattern yet? Regards, Tom

GOOD NEWS for the hundreds of @brexitparty_uk candidates who paid money to Farage and are now out of pocket after being stood down. Just discovered that under EU Directive PSD2/2366/EU they can claim back their money. Please retweet so they all get the message. Thanks!

RT @Femi_Sorry: @ThomasPride Hi Tom! Thanks for calling me a liar😊 The conference policy explicitly supports the government's deal being "put to back to the public". Logically that = passing the deal through parliament subject to public ratification. Happy to read out any more of your own policies for you👍🏿 https://t.co/yC6kTpF7YE

#Vicargate: Eccentric pro-Brexit panelist sparks BBC conspiracy theory
BBC producers have been forced to defend a Brexit-supporting pastor in the face of the emergent #vicargate conspiracy theory, which asserts the broadcaster planted a paid actor into its panel debate to voice support for Prime Minister Theresa May’s European Union withdrawal deal.
The person at the center of the controversy, Lynn Hayter, first raised viewers’ suspicions on Wednesday for her eccentricity when she appeared alongside other members of the public on the BBC’s flagship Newsnight show wearing a clerical collar and passionately defend May’s deal.
"The reason they are sitting there is that they know far more about what's going on then we do. I've been a Conservative all my life and I back Prime Minister May."
Lynn is sold on the government's Brexit plan#newsnight | @maitlis | @nadhimzahawi pic.twitter.com/cP2gMearTv
— BBC Newsnight (@BBCNewsnight) November 26, 2018
May’s Brexit deal, which was approved by the E.U. last week, faces its biggest hurdle in a British parliamentary vote in December. Lawmakers and the public are divided on the deal. It’s very uncertain how the vote will go and May is trying to promote her plan.
Hayter described herself as a lifelong conservative. While arguing with other panelists over Britain’s looming exit from the European Union, she implored viewers to “have faith in the government.”
Curious viewers, however, quickly discovered that she was the pro-Trump internet-ordained pastor of Seeds for Wealth Ministries, a fringe evangelical religious group promising “financial freedom in Christ.”
Hayter, it also turns out, regularly picks up work as an extra using her middle name Marina and has taken up minor roles on the BBC’s Eastenders soap opera and was even in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens.
The news exploded on Twitter and allegations of a BBC conspiracy emerged, dubbed #vicargate, in particular among those on the left, that the state-owned organization had hired Hayter to push May’s deal to the public.
Lies lies lies. She is a paid actor. It is her job. She is not an ordained pastor – she is a right-wing, Trump supporting fantasist who calls herself a pastor. Using an actor posing as a member of the public to support the government is a RESIGNING matter.https://t.co/y0gS2PkTQB https://t.co/cpbB30IM62

The fact that a fake vicar was extolling the benefits of Brexit on Newsnight really sums the whole thing up. It is a fraud, from start to finish…
— Mr Ethical (@nw_nicholas) November 29, 2018
Wow. This newsnight fake vicar thing is pretty bad.
I mean? What on earth?
Is ANYTHING on the pro-Brexit side of the argument not a lie?
Interesting to see if newsnight claim they were duped…. seems dodgy given actress worked for BBC on many occasions…. very strange.

Oh this takes the biscuit. First 'fake' news, now a 'fake' Vicar? One very fake Vicar supporting another very fake Vicars daughter. Remember the Newsnight “Vicar” who supported Theresa May’s Brexit deal? She’s a BBC ACTOR. https://t.co/Qz6QE0ku8R via @EvolvePolitics

“Reverend Lynn” is in fact Marina Hayter. She has played numerous roles including Peasant Woman, quizzical librarian and shocked neighbour but no vicars until her starring role as Brexit deal fan girl on #Newsnight. #BBC #BrexitAgreement pic.twitter.com/vqMT1Ams3B

The conspiracy theory was even pushed by Andrew Adonis, a politician from the opposition Labour Party.
The scandal at Newsnight – Brexiter pretending to be a vicar, defended by @maitlis – is dragging BBC News even further down
Brexit has put all our national institutions on trial. The BBC is faring worse than any except the Conservative party and the Cabinet
— Andrew Adonis (@Andrew_Adonis) November 29, 2018
In a statement published online on Thursday evening, the broadcaster denied the claims outright.
Claims that Lynn appeared on #newsnight as a paid actor are false. Lynn is a pastor and was a genuine participant of our Brexit debate. She carries out work as an extra using her middle name but this is not relevant to the capacity in which she appeared. #VicarGate
— BBC Newsnight (@BBCNewsnight) November 29, 2018
In a comment made to reporters, the BBC insisted that Hayter was provided by an agency which selects representative focus groups. Despite this, the conspiracy theory continued to spread online into Friday.

The 'lovable English eccentric' element in the Brexit vote is a little mentioned factor in explaining the massive old/young divide on Brexit and why so many (much) older people voted Leave and took these people seriously. Younger people just think they're idiots. pic.twitter.com/P26FayLLWJ

Dear James, Jeremy Corbyn did not say this. He said Labour would try to negotiate a better deal with the EU before March 29th, but if that failed it would be up to party members to decide what to do. Please don't believe everything you read in the newspapers. Regards, Tom https://t.co/X0aW6NX1dp
