Scrutable

Writing on an internet forum back in 2013 under the alias Razgriz, Houghton said there is “no credible evidence to suggest the Holocaust did not happen” but that “I do find some of the events fabricated, and exegarated [sic] in some cases.”

He added: “As history is written by the victors there is always going to be a bit of re-writing.”

In other posts he suggests creating a debating society on the forum with some of the suggested topics including “Britain would of [sic] been better staying out of world war two” and that “the events of WW2 mainly the holocaust have been exaggerated by the victors.”

He also suggested that homosexuality was not “good” for the human race, and that the “core teaching” of Islam is the “eventual domination” of the world.

At the time he had been a Tory general election candidate for the Aberdeen North constituency.

I wonder if they are unaware that the core teaching of the Christian churches is also the domination of the world. What do they think missionaries were for?
