The Odious Daily Mail Pursues...

[Khandro]

...the Robinsons, even on their holiday but gets outclassed by a long way. Watch the hapless biter get bitten;

[david small]

Appalling rag. Printed to incite and provoke. Shame such a travesty of a so called newspaper is allowed to lie and mislead public opinions. History will expose the foul journalistic propaganda spewing out daily from this disgusting paper. Stool of the state?

[naomi24]

Odious, yes .. but it isn't just the Mail. The whole of our rotten establishment is guilty.

[ichkeria]

Isn’t the Daily Mail getting a pro-Remain editor?
Truly nothing is sacred. We’re doomed I tell ye!
I’ll be needing new boots for the swamp - anyway Brexit will rescue us from the fire :-)
That’s if Tommy and his army of thugs haven’t saved us first ...

[bainbrig]

Trouble is David, they DO keep getting away with it, from their attacks on the Jewish immigrants of the early 20th century, through their support for fascism in the 30s, to their current rabble-rousing rubbish.

Wouldn’t use it to wipe my donkey.

ichkeria, why is this acceptable?

[ichkeria]

Why is what acceptable? If you’re on about the stuff at the link I have no idea. Last time I tried watching Me Weston I felt slightly ill. It probably isn’t but as old bainers says that’s the Mail for you. We never like it when the sack of manure is tossed in our direction for a change

[naomi24]

So you haven't watched it. Right ....

[scooping]

Yes, 80 years ago the Mail's proprietor was to blame for the "Hurrah for the Blackshirts" headline. That was, of course, when the world did not understand the nature of the Nazi regime. But the Daily Mirror constantly undermined the national government when we were at war with Germany. In my view, that was worse.

[ichkeria]

I certainly haven’t watched it: I was commenting on the rather OTT reaction.
I reserve the right to contest the endless stream of far right pap khandro posts without wasting even more of my time being leered at by Nazi bloggers

[naomi24]

Ichkeria, //I was commenting on the rather OTT reaction. //

You can't know whether the reaction was OTT or not.

[ichkeria]

I’d agree that being ‘outclassed’ by the Robinsons is not something you’d want on your CV.
Maybe that’s something for the new editor to address :-)

[ichkeria]

I know that ‘the whole of our rotten establishment is guilty’ is a pile of nonsense without having to sit through a video by PW :-)

[naomi24]

Ichkeria, //I know that ‘the whole of our rotten establishment is guilty’ is a pile of nonsense //

You do? Perhaps the whole rotten establishment is doing what you do too - failing to watch and therefore making ill-informed guesses rather than informed judgements.

Does James King work for the mail?

[Garaman]

I don't mind watching Tommy Robinson videos, but I can't sit through a minute of Paul Weston talking.

[Khandro]

naomi; You are wasting your time; the prejudiced have no problems in forming their opinions as they feel no need to consider the facts.

For those of you who (quite reasonably) cannot be bothered to watch this 8 minute and its 14-minute follow up:

Paul Weston (a far-right vlogger of rather dubious credibility) talks at the camera for a bit describing footage taken by Tommy Robinson of his interaction with a greasy Mail journalist in Spain. Weston says it is "the video of the year if not the decade", and rather confusingly refers to the Mail as an example of "progressive liberalism" running up against "centrist facts and truths". He then provides a heavily-edited (you can see where it has been cut) 3-minute clip of TR having an argument with this person in which they have an aggressive argument about someone who was banned from the UK (I can't make out the name). They then both argue rather incoherently about what Islamophobia is, and whether or not the Koran should be banned. TR then goes on a rant about how he was allegedly treated in prison and asks the journalist whether he investigated it - he says no. TR asks why he is far right and the journalist (who is eager to leave) gives some spurious reasons and becomes flustered. TR then follows him out and gets very angry and asks him more questions. We're then back to Weston who hails the clip as 'astonishing' and craps on about some other obscure people the Mail has covered unfairly (I have never heard any of them, but I'm sure his audience will know each case in obsessive detail). He then whinges about the Mail censoring comments on their website (which is nothing new) and pulling articles (which is also nothing new). Weston then meanders around all his favourite talking points for a bit and repeats all his previous rubbish about TR being "tortured" in prison. He says he is "quite literally lost for words" and then blathers on and on for about another 2 minutes about "typical metropolitan lefty contempt" and concludes that TR is the true journalist and encourages everyone to watch TR's video (which is 14 minutes long and just as tedious) in order to defeat the "Quisling leftist media" (which the Daily Mail represents apparently). Finishes with the usual vlogger begging for subscriptions.

There you go. I'm not sure why this has got Khandro so excited but each to their own.

[Garaman]

Khandro calling others prejudiced! Pack in now you won't see a better post today.

[naomi24]

//He then provides a heavily-edited (you can see where it has been cut) 3-minute clip //

He says it's a clip and it's made clear that the uncut film is available on a link beneath the video Khandro posted.

[Kromovaracun]

I don't know whether PW made the cuts or if TR did, though. He might have just lifted that 3 minutes directly from the latter's video. From what I saw of TR's video (sorry I couldn't sit through all of it) I couldn't make that out.
