Re: Edward Leigh MP and the Liverpool News.
“Some years ago Leigh wrote an anti-CND article for the Sunday Telegraph. The Liverpool News, an obscure pro-National Front rag wrote to him to ask him if they could reprint it. He automatically said yes, having no idea whatsoever of the nature of the periodical, believing it merely to be some local Conservative newsletter.
I know Leigh and when I first read this story in Searchlight I was amazed. There is no way Leigh has any sympathies with fascism, national socialism, racialism or anti-semitism. (Incidentally, his close friend and co-founder of the Coalition For Peace Through Security, Julian Lewis, is Jewish.)”

“Re: Shooting the Pope. I have fired thousands of rounds through all sorts of hand guns. A 9mm Browning Hi-power (used by Agca) is not fired with any intent of hitting a moving target (moving on multiple planes simultaneously) when held over one’s head and fired blind.
It is quite as silly as Lee Harvey Oswald’s having been the lone assassin with a piece of pre WW2 bolt action junk, with a cheap 1 inch diameter 4 power scope.
Technical ignorance allows a lot of bullshit to float by. Hinkley’s ‘explosive bullets’ are another example. I happen to know that had he been using what the FBI claimed, no one would have even gone to the hospital. Maximum penetration would have been less than a half inch of flesh.”
