THE REAL OBAMA TURNED UP
Photo and video messages that disappear after a few seconds have been popularized by Snapchat, the mobile messaging app that reportedly spurned multibillion takeover offers from Facebook and Google last year.

Smith, who has previously made what he calls the "progressive case against freedom of movement," said the EU referendum result proved the public want tougher controls on immigration.
