Fantastic spot over at Harry’s Place. Not only is Mehdi a hypocrite and an arse-licker, he’s also dishonest. Here is Mehdi Hasan writing in the New Statesman:

“You might assume that my own anti-abortion views are a product of my Muslim beliefs. They aren’t.”

Here is Mehdi Hasan, in a begging letter to the editor of the Daily Mail:

“I’d like to write a piece for the Mail making the left-wing case against abortion, or a piece on why marriage should be a Labour value, and not just a Conservative one. My own unabashed social conservatism on such issues derives from my Islamic faith.”

Which is it?
