Funding

So why is there no mention of funding? Isn't it worth noting at least they receive money from a company run by George Soros called Open Society foundation(this is not tinfoil hat conspiracy stuff, he does fund them) and that this exact same company funds (or funded) a campaign called "best for Britain" who's goal was to overturn a legal referendum result? I mean isn't that a giant conflict of interest?

If you don't believe me or care, then who funds them should certainly still be of interest. Here in this video, Will Moy, Chief Executive of fullfact states that this is true (around the 2 minute mark) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyCnMmziNnE and I can find at least one press article that states that Google, eBay creator and soros all fund fullfact and I think if you check on these particular people and institutions you will find they have agendas with regards to UK politics — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.4.80.121 (talk) 22:12, 23 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Half of this isn't in the source

@Samwalton9: I'm fine with this removal and feel free to apply as much scrutiny to the or article or myself as you see fit. But to aid you in your application of scrutiny you should note that the material removed in [1] was not added by me but was rather preexisting material that I moved for readability Talpedia 01:05, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Talpedia No problem - I just only noticed it after you moved the paragraph :) Sam Walton (talk) 11:05, 27 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
