C'mon, this is the Daily Mail, we're talking about, here. The Mail is a latter day supporter of all things fascist (when owned by Lord Rothermere - a "friend" of Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler and Oswald Mosley) and still about as right wing as the British press gets. Never a paper to let the facts get in the way of a good story, I wouldn't believe them if they told me that the sky is blue when the sun shines.
