- JD Vance's team denied any knowledge of police efforts to collect residents' social media information, stating they were unaware.
- Thames Valley Police denied instructing officers to ask for social media details, clarifying that conversations were voluntary and for facilitating movement during temporary road restrictions.
- Residents described significant security measures, including roadblocks and police door knocks, which disrupted the usual calm of the Cotswolds village.
