The BBC's extraordinary wall to wall coverage today of the career move of this obviously globally and epochally important senior statesman (err, yep that's conman yobbo Tommy by the way) announcing on all media outlets that he's tearfully leaving the cosmically HUGE membership ( that's 35,000 "supporters" , oh yeeees it is - calculated for the BBC by some media analysts - by squaring the hypotenuse by the triangular momentum of the volume of social media input by rightwing nutters over a week in August - give or take a mean deviation of x- 155% ---- --- ALL clear ?) of the EDL for the best of all , caring, principled, humanitarian, motives - obviously another giant step forward etc, etc, for ....errr - for Tommy's desire for media coverage of course ; has certainly been a gobsmacker !
A charitable explanation for the BBC's idiocy is that Quillam, for self promotional purposes, assured them this was a story of "national importance", and the nepotistic inbreds who compose the BBC News staff are so out of touch with the real world that they just bought the whole pile of hogwash as gospel truth , coming from the SIS's tame anti Islamic Extremism "thinktank" creature.
I assume that when Prof Callinicos finally decides to retire to his ancestral country estate away from the "extremist" limelight , he too will be given this political superstar treatment by the BEEB ? At least the 7pm Channel 4 piece on Tommy was a lot more cynical and analytical.
Not much family resemblance to uncle Julius though.
