KINSELLA: Conservative MPs wrong to meet with German extremist (Toronto Sun)

Three Conservative MPs met with Christine Anderson, a member of the European Parliament from the Alternative for Germany party (AfD).

The three MPs then rushed out a tweet, claiming they didn’t know about the extremism views of Anderson or her party. There, too, they would have found Israel’s ambassador to Germany adamantly refusing to meet with Anderson’s party because they are “highly insulting for Jews, for Israel and for the entire issue of the Holocaust.” They have referred to Jews as “Satanic elements in the financial oligopoly” who have “political control over Germany.” They have said of Auschwitz and refugees: “Both are wrong.” And so on. Formed in 2013, the AfD has already established itself as a force in Germany’s parliament, the Bundestag, and the European Parliament.

Does it matter? Last year, when leadership contender Lewis likened vaccination to — as another Conservative leadership contestant put it, “being tortured in a Nazi concentration camp” — she was condemned widely. Big deal, some might say, and have. The three Ontario Conservative MPs, Leslyn Lewis, Dean Allison and Colin Carrie, are seen smiling as they stand alongside Anderson, who is on a cross-Canada tour. So, a trio of Canadian kooks met with a European kook. Article content

Anderson is a member of a “radical right-wing party with xenophobic, Islamophobic and extremely nationalistic positions.” “I am proud to have defended the rights of immigrants, including refugees from LGBTQ+ community, who faced significant persecution and have fled to Canada from all over the world,” she said. Lewis, who has previously worked as a lawyer, said in a statement that she has been a staunch defender of human rights.

Niagara MP facing criticism for meeting with far-right German politician (Niagarathisweek.com)

Niagara West MP Dean Allison is facing criticisms online after a series of photos surfaced of a luncheon he attended with a German politician.

“There's a tie in between white supremacist ideology and some of the other extreme right-wing campaigns, for example, about against mask and vaccine mandates,” Waziruddin pointed out. “Residents should be alarmed about the open promotion of white supremacy and its ideas and the associated campaigns against vaccination and mask mandates. “Unfortunately, this is not the first time that elected officials in Niagara have openly associated with white supremacy or promoted white supremacist ideas,” he said. We were not aware of the views or associations of her and her political party. We do not share or endorse her views and strongly condemn any views that are racist or hateful.” The party is also against same-sex marriage, doesn’t believe humans affect climate change, and has been called antisemitic for its support of a ban on kosher meat.
