The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

If the last week has taught me anything it's that Vladimir Putin's millions spent on Russia Today and Sputnik was certainly well invested.

An awful lot of awfully gullible people have bought his disinformation crook, lies and stinker.

Seen this meme a few times now and I’m like “that’s not what happened any other time though? Every other time they were people saying ‘fascism is great, let’s have some fascism, this is definitely going to be fascism and we like it’, when was this time with the no overreacting and the fascism?”

As Gaie's MP I tried everything I could to challenge this decision to send her back to prison - including writing to the prisons minister Lord Timpson and the probation service. But they would not budge a millimetre.

Melanie Phillips is quoted extensively in Anders Breivik's 2011 Manifesto. She "took exception" to suggestions she influenced him.

Would a black/Muslim/Palestinian journalist quoted extensively in Hamas's 7/10 statements still be regular panelist on BBC programmes?
