Abstract / Description of output
We investigate methods for collecting data to form an archive on the debate within Twitter surrounding the UK's inclusion in the EU. We use three strategies, gathering data using hashtags, extracting data from the random stream and collecting from users known to be discussing the debate. We explore the various bias in the resulting datasets.
