Your rabid hatred of those who wish Britain to stay in Europe or those who would like to see a better life for the poor is palpable, your support for the rightist scvum that now pollutes British streets and your lack of concern that Rees Mogg, who fought to leave Europe and immediate moved his investments to Ireland, has opemly supported the Nazism that our fathers gave their lives to keep out, sums up you and thos who think like you

On a more personal level, my father returned from Spain on the eve of 'The War Against Fascism', having been wounded and held prisoner there. He received no hero's welcome; rather he was met with excommunication from his church for fighting on the wrong side, was awarded a police record as "a premature anti-fascist" and became unemployed because of having being 'blacklisted' from his job. Unable to find work he became one of McAlpine's Fusiliers, the result being that I don't think my sister and I met him more than a dozen times before my tenth birthday,

Bit of a contradiction there laddie. My father was in uniform from 1938 to 1947, and yours was....? Do try to be accurate and do not try to bamboozle us. You are always found out.
