Patrick Christys: Too much virtue signalling over Afghanistan

GBNews published this video item, entitled “Patrick Christys: Too much virtue signalling over Afghanistan” – below is their description.

Patrick Christys says:

“They’re now going door-to-door hunting anyone who used to work with the coalition troops, including a chef who worked at the UK embassy, and of course the interpreters, whose safety Dominic Raab thought was less important than him getting a cracking suntan on a beach in Crete.”

“I can see both sides of it. But here’s my take.”

“There is a lot of virtue signalling going on at the moment and unless you’re willing to put your money where your mouth is and take an Afghan refugee into your own home, then stop pretending that you’re a better, more moral person than anyone else.”
