The nauseating Daily Mail is at it again. Today's headline which I will not even bother to reproduce here, screams out in disgusting and repulsive bias without any acknowledgement to the factual basis of their "story". Spewing out their usual smears and embellished distortions about Hamas, the IRA, Hezbollah and the rest, the Mail condemns itself with ample justification, for the closure of a "newspaper," which again abuses 10 fold, the privilege of "freedom of the press" and the right to free speech. Not for the first time, and probably not the last unless they are stopped, the Mail provides a rationale for those who argue that when the media, abuse their powers and position within society, they forfeit the rights associated with a free press. There is a vast difference between reporting, even brutally, that which is true and reporting no more than distortion, lies and embellished innuendo, to promote a political bias. What the Mail glaringly omits from its narrative of course, is the fact that a number of other politicians have also refused the invitation to attend the invitation the State Banquet for Trump in June. The invitation has been declined not as a "snub" to the Queen but as a direct statement to Trump, the racist, hypocrite and misogynist, who has lied and deceived his way around the world from Korea to Israel and Mexico to Venezuela. This view of Trump is clearly shared by many who have already declined the invitation and thousands who have not been invited. Trump is a dangerous two faced liar. It should not come as any surprise that the Daily Mail should endorse him and his visit. Trump is not welcome in this country. The Mail is not welcome as a newspaper on the shelves of our newsagents, or on the internet.
A "newspaper" which abuses Freedom of the Press.
