It's Fantasy Time folks..........................

Let me give you the key to enter a world of political make-believe, the English Passport blog, owned by Diamond & Associates Ltd.  The company has two directors, both with the surname 'Uncles'.

A recent post:

The idea that the Prime Minister has reacted to a letter from the English Democrats in the way suggested is the stuff of fantasy.

But we should not be surprised.  The English Democrat blog published fictitious quotes attributed to John Redwood MP which give the impression that the MP supports the English Democrats.

Note this sentence from the above:

Scottish nationalism is becoming more popular in England, as more English think they could be better off without the UK, due to the campaigning since 2002 of the English Democrats, the only credible English Nationalist party.

A visit to John Redwood's blog elicited the following:

No sign of the sentence quoted in italics above.

I wonder if John Redwood knows he is being portrayed as commending the English Democrats?

No I have not. As it puts entirely false words into what I did say in order to promote another party I will naturally ask them to remove it and apologise.
