Speaking to SKY News, Cormac Smith claimed:
“I was told late last night by a government source, there’s another draft law which is going to be pushed through the Duma with great haste, which erm, is the fact that those drafted, because they’re now having to send reinforcements in….
The first to be drafted will be the peace protesters. This just shows you the absolute hatred and murderous spite that is at the heart of this man and the heart of his regime and in particular the hatred and spite that they have towards Ukraine, which unfortunately has been seen with the barbarous and genocidal attacks he has unleashed on Ukraine in the last few days.”
Presenter Jayne Secker didn’t bat an eyelid.
She didn’t say, “Mr. Smith, hang on, that’s an incredible claim, that Putin intends to round up anti-war protesters and send them directly to the front. Where’s the evidence please?”
That’s because Secker, just like her colleagues at SKY and the cretins at the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, is about as useful as tits on a bull.
I bet you a pint of Arthur’s finest, that as the day goes on, radio and TV presenters and their guests will repeat Smith’s ludicrous and totally unsubstantiated claims as though they are facts.
And the beat goes on.
