SALMOND TOLD TO QUIT RT

-

ALEX Salmond is facing mounting pressure to scrap his weekly show on the controvers­ial Russia Today television station – regarded as a Putin propaganda arm.

The former First Minister was silent last night on how he would deal with the attack on his show.

Stephen Gethins MP, SNP Internatio­nal Affairs spokespers­on, said: “Russia Today continues to be a licensed broadcaste­r so any questions about its future are for Ofcom.

“However, I do not think it is right for MPs to go on Russia Today and take a payment.”
