'Why Does the UK Support Ukrainian Shelling?' - Ukraine / UK 25-year event in Westminster
"What really drove Phillips of the British Parliament. British journalist and war correspondent Graham Phillips was expelled from the event dedicated to the 25th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the UK and Ukraine. The meeting was held in the British Parliament building. Expulsion uncomfortable journalist - a manifestation of the so-called political orthodoxy, which is struggling with the "Russian propaganda", said political analyst Kirill Benedict.
According to the journalist, who, incidentally, has published a video recorded on a meeting in your account on the video hosting Youtube, the reason for his expulsion have become very uncomfortable questions regarding the Donbass.
Mr. Phillips asked Gerald Howarth speaking Parliament member, will tell the audience about the shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine the territory of Donbass and killings of civilians. At this point, the event guests attacked the journalist, shouting, "Get out!" "Liar!" And demanded that he "get out immediately."
When the degree of tension has reached a critical level, the approaching guards escorted Graham Phillips to the exit. It is noteworthy that a short video with the removal of the journalist from the British Parliament hall on his Twitter microblogging published Ukrainian Embassy in the UK.
"Awkward questions - these are the issues that, for whatever reasons, are not discussed. For a long time the Western media exist in a very rigid framework, which is just the Financial Times at the time quite successfully called political orthodoxy. It is expected that all media should adhere to the same course, the same line. In the Soviet Union it would be called the party line, but because it is not a party, namely, a common line, the more correct to call it a political orthodoxy. All that stands out beyond the line, either ignored or stigmatized as a screen and a Russian or pro-Russian propaganda. That is why there is a struggle with such news agencies as RT, and so on. They are just so and called Russia's propaganda tools, "- says political consultant.
According to Cyril Benediktova, now you can see how all the Western media are relentless media war not only with the "Russian propaganda", but even with the new US president Donald Trump.
"He gets only because it allows itself to go beyond this political orthodoxy. Here, even we can not say that this is all coming from a certain center, the so-called Washington Regional Committee, we are talking about the fact that over the decades evolved certain ideological scheme, which, as blinders, closing eyes and reporters and analysts, and politicians. These blinders do not allow them to see what is happening in reality ", - continued political analyst.
Expert FAN sure of the circumstances, is possible and necessary to fight and journalists such as Graham Phillips, are fighters ideological front, who are trying to ruin the situation.
"Sooner or later, of course, work. But do not expect that everything will change in the near future. Just here is the fight against RT or "Sputnik" conducted including because in recent years, the number of citizens of Western countries, including Britain, that they are listened to and get some kind of alternative information, is constantly growing. You could say that this political disillusionment with orthodox and mainstream media, more and more increasing. Accordingly, there is a request to alternative information channels, and, of course, that such statements, like Phillips, will find their responses. And the more they will be, the better for truth and objectivity ", - concluded the Benedictine".
