And Virtue

Of course the Far Right, which really is an enormous security risk, thinks that anyone is a security risk who speaks for the 12,877,869 people who voted for Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party. 

In having been refused Police clearance to attend the Labour Party Conference, Michael Segalov ought to feel honoured. He should ask them about Hillsborough and Orgreave. He should ask them about the Saudi connections of right-wing hacks who are doubtless being waved through by the Police. He should ask them about their own, the Armed Forces', MI5's, MI6's and GCHQ's connections to National Action, which pretty much seems to have taken over an Army with rather more at its disposal than was deployed at Parson's Green, and to Britain First.

He should ask them about the fact that the present Government is in office only on the 10 votes, at one hundred million pounds apiece, of the Ulster Resistance, which has never disbanded, never disarmed, and never even so much as called a ceasefire. And he should ask them about the numerous ties of present and recent Cabinet Ministers (and, again, of MI5, MI6, GCHQ and the military top brass) to the Monday Club and Swinton Circle world of the only person to have murdered a sitting member of the House of Commons in the present century.

Of course, he would have to ask these questions in Vice. Other than perhaps Giles Fraser, there is no one writing regularly for any sold-in-shops, Parliamentary Press Gallery newspaper other than the Morning Star who is as far to the Left as 30 or more people writing regularly for such newspapers are to the Right, with all that that then entails for the composition of every panel that is ever put together by any broadcaster other than RT.

For whom are they speaking? For whom are they not speaking? For whom is no one speaking? For a start, no one is speaking for the 12,877,869 people who voted for the Labour Party that was led by Jeremy Corbyn.
