Portillo was interviewed, reverently, on RNZ National in 2018. Archived Message Posted by Morrissey on May 18, 2020, 9:31 am, in reply to ""Portillo's Empire Journey". 9pm Ch5 Fridays. " Michael Portaloo is superior to Nigel Farage? How so? June 16, 2018 Dear Kim, You asked one of Margaret Thatcher's henchmen, in apparent seriousness, whether he felt "squeamish" about working with the likes of Nigel Farage. That question is predicated on an assumption that Michael Portillo is somehow morally superior to Nigel Farage. In fact, Michael Portillo was part of a cabinet that, just to give a few examples, diplomatically and militarily supported Saddam Hussein through most of the 1980s, supported the infamous Suharto regime in Indonesia, and waged a brutal war against the working people and the poor in Great Britain. What right does Michael Portillo have to feel superior to, or "squeamish" about anyone?
