Some people do not seem to have heard of the Cold War. The use of the word globalist is clearly totally misunderstood, but probably something that sounds good, so we may as well shove it in at every hopefully appropriate opportunity, in the hope it impresses

Mair - has it ever occurred to you that when JFK was president, the world was a very different place and America had a very different view of its "responsibilities" to prevent Russia/Communism over running the world.

Just watching a select committee and they are talking about the far right and their methods of wrinkling their way into our society, and the hate crime rise.
