Which Presidential election loser changed the password to the country’s official Twitter account and refused to hand over the new details?

If you use Google to find the answers, Santa will drown a baby elf.

What do we think of the format BTW? I'd really appreciate your suggestions.

    I have no idea what the answer is, just what I want it to be... Italy and Berlusconi. It's the sort of bonkers thing he'd do, if he could stop partying for long enough to know what Twitter is.

    Is it a European country or too early for clues?

    Thanks for doing the quiz again Gen. Christmas wouldn't be the same on this board without it.

    Lateral thinking but I wonder if Mr Murdoch could use his media power to change 'reality' - suppose the Murodch for Primeminister party failed to win the 2020 general election but all the Murdoch media outlets went ahead Mugabe style and declared that their candidate had won, not only via there own media but also by spoofing other sources like the bbc as they control the distribution via satellite broadcast and the internet, how would I know if my bbc news webpage was being altred by sky as it came through their bit of the internet pipes...
    I think....
