The statue wars

Monuments it’s claimed have racist associations are being toppled all over the planet as part of the Black Lives Matter resurgence in the wake of the killing of George Floyd. The Alex Salmond Show examines the “war of the statues” that’s now raging internationally with Scotland’s leading historian, Professor Sir Tom Devine, while Professor Emeritus John Robertson casts a skeptical eye over the mainstream media’s reporting of the issue.

The statue wars
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.
