Facebook: Brexit dominates the popular social network

Facebook is also involved in the referendum on Brexit, which will see the UK go to the polls next June 23 to decide whether to remain in the European Union. The popular social network has decided to side openly with an alert sent to citizens under 45 years, statistically mostly against Brexit, to register before the deadline of this evening to participate in the referendum of 23 June. Collecting approximately 100 thousand favorable responses from users who have immediately followed the advice.

In one day there were 155 thousand people: 52 thousand between 18 and 24 years, 68 thousand from 25 to 34 and 35 thousand from 35 to 44. It is more than three times what they had done in previous days: according to The Times, three fifths were convinced by Facebook.
