Which is the website. It was not good at all. Visually appealing maybe, but it didn't give nearly enough information about the EU, and as a tool for recruiting activists it was utterly useless. People effectively couldn't volunteer to take part in the campaign via the website and I myself had to resort to badgering regional campaign directors on social media to get involved.

I raised concerns on this matter numerous times to people higher up the food chain both in person and via e-mail.
