A radical right-wing social media loudmouth once branded a “repulsive racist” by Piers Morgan prompted a Twitter storm following comments on mask wearing in public.

Paul Joseph Watson, who described himself as a “younger, more handsome and more intelligent” version of Morgan during a heated exchange earlier this year, hit out at men for wearing face coverings, saying it is an admission they are into ‘pegging’.

The comments have provoked widespread backlash with former health minister Edwina Currie even getting involved.

Idiot. Try it, you might enjoy it. https://t.co/sjjnAuYivN

Others pointed out that the tweet might have said more about Watson than anybody else, particularly given how many attempts it took for him to get it up.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
