And those rumours have been flying around for some time about the groups of individuals arguing against these schemes.There is a crowdfunder running that has received donations from 36 people, half of whom are anonymous.
That doesn't mean they aren't also receiving support elsewhere - there are lots of rumours that they are receiving other support from certain companies, trade bodies or rich individuals but nothing that confirms it.
I know one of the groups well, and they have had those rumours thrown at them. I don't know any of the other groups well enough to speak about, but as far as the group i know... the rumours are malicious and baseless, designed to smear people and damage any argument that they make.
It's hardly an original tactic, but it does seem to work.
