'Double standard': A hard right American political conference (CPAC) spreads its wings in Sydney

Foreign guests include Jeanine Pirro, a prominent Fox News supporter of both Donald Trump and the National Rifle Association; the Brexit champion Nigel Farage and his former chief adviser, Raheem Kassam, who is known for extreme views against Islam, immigration and feminism. He has attracted criticism for calling the Koran “fundamentally evil” and Islam as a “fascistic ideology”.


I can't believe that the guy who's organizing this is not only someone I know, but was a classmate of mine 35 years ago!
