‘The Guardian has admitted that a rogue reporter fabricated interviews in articles for the newspaper and falsely claimed to have been present at events he wrote about.
Joseph Mayton, a freelance who has been writing for the Guardian since 2009, has been accused of making up quotes in some of his stories, even filing interviews with people who later said they had never spoken to him.’
The Guardian is always jam packed with fake news, remember the one about Milly Dowler that got 200 people sacked when the Guardian’s lies forced the closure of the News of the World? Or how about the recent ‘traingate’ where the Guardian published a story fabricated by Labour HQ? Or how about that er ‘rogue reporter’ who made up interviews? Or how about this….is it real or fake? Reading it and you might think straight away that it is a spoof, the language is very right-wing, to the point and not very subtle….
Alt-right’ online poison nearly turned me into a racist
I told myself outright: “You’re becoming a racist. What you’re doing is turning you into a terrible, hateful person.” Until that moment I hadn’t even realised that “alt-right” was what I was becoming; I just thought I was a more open-minded person for tolerating these views.
It hit me like a ton of bricks. Online radicalisation of young white men. It’s here, it’s serious, and I was lucky to be able to snap out of it when I did. And if it can get somebody like me to swallow it – a lifelong liberal – I can’t imagine the damage it is doing overall.
It seemed so subtle – at no point did I think my casual and growing Islamophobia was genuine racism. The good news for me is that my journey toward the alt-right was mercifully brief: I never wanted to harm or abuse anybody verbally, it was all very low level – a creeping fear and bigotry that I won’t let infest me again. But I suspect you could, if you don’t catch it quickly, be guided into a much more overt and sinister hatred.
I haven’t yet told my wife that this happened, and I honestly don’t know how to. I need to apologise for what I said and tell her that I certainly don’t believe it. It is going to be a tough conversation and I’m not looking forward to it. I didn’t think this could happen to me. But it did and it will haunt me for a long time to come.
You’d have to think the Guardian realised this was a spoof, it’s ‘anonymous’, and double-bluffed and published anyway….it may read like an simplistic mock lefty piece of angst, all too obviously fake, but maybe they thought all anti-Right-wing rhetoric is good rhetoric even if satirical…somebody might believe it and another recruit to the left’s anti-Right drive is another recruit to the cause.
Guido tells us someone has claimed to be the author and it is a send up…the Guardian of course denies it.
A notorious Internet troll reportedly convinced The Guardian to publish a fake news story Monday on his journey to becoming a racist member of the “alt-right.”
Godfrey Elfwich, who jokingly describes Xirself (preferred gender pronoun) as a “Genderqueer Muslim atheist,” has gained a large Twitter following for trolling the far-left. In 2015, Elfwich famously made his way onto a BBC radio show and convinced the host that Star Wars was racist because Darth Vader was black.
In what could be the most trollish act yet, Elfwich appears to have had an article anonymously published on The Guardian entitled, “‘Alt-right’ online poison nearly turned me into a racist.”
Castro is dead, long live President Castro.
So yes, I believe that Castro is still alive, and he is still the President of Cuba. It was his nasty brother who died.

Well I believe Castro died a couple of years ago and like other things in Cuba they’ve only just got around to doing something about it.

All is well. For balance…
Deep joy.

Don’t forget Godfrey’s excellent #WrongSkin hoax, that The Mirror picked up on.

The BBC and the Guardian and a few others have a clear agenda to publish stories that promote their biased activism. They select and publish stories in line with their agenda, they ignore stories not in line with their agenda. With important stories that have to be published they will aim to present it according to their left wing ideology.
For example, recent BBC stories on Islamic terrorists, the Somalian student refugee in the US and the son of the Trojan Horse Islamist who got himself blown up in ISIS Syria – bombard the viewer with smiling, happy, nice images of the terrorists, in an attempt to humanise them and lay the blame on the West & rogue elements for radicalising them. Pictures of their victims and horrific details of their crimes are either ignored or marginalised.

What a heart rending story.
This poor little boy has gone out to murder, behead, and crucify Infidels. But no matter, we must bear in mind that he suffered in England.
There is no hope for Britain as a nation unless we separate from Islam and Muslims.

The Mighty Support Our Lefty(under another guise)has been on Guardian sites to comment.
I myself have done the same-but got involved in rows.
But I have now seen for myself haw to do it the SOL way.
Just go extremer than they do…you`ll hardly EVER be spotted, and you yourself will soon be a CiF milksop or counter revolutionary to the REAL nutters on that blogroll.
I wanted the Richmond by-election to be turned into a representative “double or quits” New Second Referendum..binding on Heathrows Government…I dragged my gabbling into an incoherent contradictory mad hole of crap( no change there of course).
But was taken seriously, plenty likes-just an occasional beard was stroked( but they all seemed happy anyway).
You cant go mad enough with the Left-extreme or doolally enough.
Godfrey and our own SOL proved it, prove it-and you ought to go and have a laugh over there too, before the rag folds…
