with me is the british mp damian collins, conservative chairman of the uk's digital, culture, media and sportas been at a special conference in washington this week organised by the atlantic council to discuss russia's inteference in elections. thank you for coming in. what did you make of the summit in helsinki? i thought what president trump said was extraordinary about russian interference in elections, he had the advice of the intelligence community in washington telling him that has happened and the tech companies themselves have said it has happened. he preferred to take the word of resin putin over those of his own advisers and i think that was extraordinary and looking at the helsinki summit as a whole and his week in europe beforehand it looks like his mission was to get close to the russians and offend his allies. you spend a lot of your time working on russian interference on how to guard against it. when the president says i have no reason to doubt president putin when he says he did not interfere, does that make your job harder? it does because the danger is for people in europe

the digital, culture, media and sport select committee has made the proposal after an inquiry into fake cambridge analytica data scandal. it also looked into russian involvement in influencing voters during the eu referendum. the committee's chairman, damian collins, says that the government should introduce tougher regulation. ina in a world where people increasingly get their news via social media platforms like facebook, where the volume of this information being spread on sites like this is starting to crowd out legitimate sources of news and information, when it's being done in such a sophisticated way that people struggle to tell the difference between the real and the fake news, and that bad actors are deliberately gaming the system to try and make sure their messages read more than, quickly than anyone else's, that is creating mess and confusion were during election periods it makes it ha rd during election periods it makes it hard for people to wake up issues and get the true facts before they cast their vote. storms and flooding disrupted road travel and caused flights to be c
