Ambassador of controversy (Part one)

In the first of a series on the top ten political bloggers in the UK, Alex Salmond interviews Craig Murray, a former British ambassador in Tashkent and now radical blogger, Scottish nationalist, and fierce critic of Whitehall Foreign policy. Once the youngest ambassador in the UK Foreign Office, Murray paid a high personal price for his determination to expose human rights abuses and extraordinary rendition in Uzbekistan. He has now found a new career as the author of one of the most controversial political blogs in the country.

Ambassador of controversy (Part one)
Former First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond hosts a new political chat program, ‘The Alex Salmond Show’, on RT, where he vows to battle the mainstream media narrative and take the news “out of the Westminster nexus.” ‘The Alex Salmond Show’ will take viewers inside the Welsh, Irish and Scottish parliaments, also looking at the government of Northern Ireland, not forgetting Westminster.
