Facebook denies pro-Brexit bias

If you were 'in favour of leaving the EU', Facebook wanted you to tell people. Remaining, not so much

Facebook has denied bias in the forthcoming EU referendum, after users noticed that the social network offered the ability to mark yourself as "in favour of leaving the EU", but not in favour of remaining.

The feature was highlighted by Jon Worth, a writer and strategist based in Berlin. When writing a status update on Facebook, if he tapped to add a "feeling/activity" tag to the update, then tapped on "more", only a pro-Leave option was included in the list of available activities.
