More absolute shit-stirring culture war bollocks from increasingly unhinged crank Charles Moore - does the once proud Spectator print anything else nowadays?

They've been accusing the National Trust of being 'woke' & 'anti-British' for SEVEN YEARS now - it's just utter bullshit.
On & on they go, like malfunctioning robotic populist nationalist chimps, puking out diatribe after diatribe against one of Britain's best loved & most profoundly BRITISH institutions. 🤪

It's just part of their sad little backward-looking culture war, supported by Andrew Neil.
And all because the National Trust rightly wanted to provide context & mention some important details about the history of some of their buildings.

Imagine the National Trust providing relevant contextualising information!

IT'S WOKE ANTI-BRITISH POLITICAL CORRECTNESS GONE MAD!
Just *4%* of people have a negative opinion of the National Trust.

The culture war cranks are upset because until recently they've managed to keep a lid on not revealing too much to British people about Britain's grim colonial past, & its historic ripples, still felt today.
The pathetic attacks on the @nationaltrust are examples of the "cancel culture" & "curtailing of free speech" that these culture war cranks pretend to be against.

It's obviously made up bullshit, the 'source' is anonymous, & the Spectator should not be taken seriously by anyone.
The culture war cranks at the Spectator - like those at GB News & in Government - are doing their level best to turn Britain into a polarised, hateful, small-minded, backward-looking, populist nationalist free-market hellhole. If only there was something linking them...
And ANOTHER shit-stirring Thatcherite culture war crank puking out divisive bullshit.

When he's not blowing smoke up Brextremist crank Daniel Hannan’s arse, or teacher bashing, Hilton writes for Conservative Home, founded by Cultural Marxism conspiracy theorist Tim Montgomerie.

Missing context for *that* photo - instigated it seems by @AskNationwide - not Downing St - as part of their 'respect in footbal' campaign.

So why on earth would Downing St release the cropped photo on the right?

Or if they didn't, why would @PoliticsForAlI say they did? ImageImage
So it looks like @10DowningStreet released several photos from the photoshoot with @AskNationwide, but @PoliticsForAlI chose to release the one they did without supplying any context.

Was this lazy, deliberate, or something else?

Well Mr Adam Shit-Stirrer Hilton, in 2004 (17 years ago) Charles Moore was Telegraph editor when stories about George Galloway were published, which led to a successful libel action.

The newspaper had falsely written that Galloway received payments from Saddam Hussein's regime. ImageImage
Moore was Chair of free-market think tank Policy Exchange, & in 2007 (14 years ago) he entered the debate over 'The Hijacking of British Islam', a misleading & widely condemned Policy Exchange report which the @BBC had found relied on fabricated evidence.

Moore hates the @BBC, which he claims is biased against climate change deniers. 🤪

He views the threat of climate change as alarmism & in 2019 (2 years ago) claimed it's designed to produce “unprecedented government control & the relative impoverishment of western societies”. 🤪 ImageImage

Our #NHS is in danger.

#THREAD

On the 19th June, 2015, ex-Deutsche Bank MD Sajid Javid was the keynote speaker at the opaquely funded free-market think tank IEA’s 60th Anniversary.

He spoke about how "free markets" & sound economics help "everyone".

iea.org.uk/multimedia/vid…
The IEA subscribes to a neoliberal worldview & advocates positions based on this ideology, including climate change denial, & total privatisation - in effect abolition - of OUR #NHS.

The dodgy IEA is secretly funded by Big tobacco, & IEA officers have offered "Cash for Access".
Let's have a look at what Javid said to the bankers, hedge-funders & free-market fundamentalists gathered at the IEA, a think tank funded by Libertarian billionaires & disaster capitalists keen to exploit Britain's last remaining publicly funded institutions, especially OUR #NHS.
