Vile antisemitism in The Sunday Times article by Kevin Myers. UK's largest national newspaper

"I note that two of the best-paid women presenters in the BBC -- Claudia Winkelman and Vanessa Feltz, with whose, no doubt, sterling work I am tragically unacquainted -- are Jewish. Good for them. Jews are not generally noted for their insistence on selling their talent for the lowest possible price, which is the most useful measure there is of inveterate, lost-with-all-hands stupidity. I wonder who are their agents? If they're the same ones that negotiated the pay for women on the lower scales, then maybe the latter have found their true value in the marketplace."

The "journalist" is also a Holocaust denier. How can he be employable? grossproffit Jul 2017 #1
FWIW, he's Irish, and this appears in the Irish edition of the Sunday Times muriel_volestrangler Jul 2017 #2

No wonder antisemitism is so rampant in the UK. The masses are fed a consistent diet of vile Jewish hatred.

"In 2008, he published a column titled “Africa Is Giving Nothing To Anyone ― Apart From AIDS.” A year later, he publicly denied the Holocaust occurred."
