Nazi Smear
The shocking murder of the Labour MP Jo Cox prompted calls for political arguments and debate to be conducted in a less hateful atmosphere.
But this seems to be lost of one of the Leave campaign's key figures in Michael Gove who smeared his opponents on air by comparing them to Nazis.
Gove has since apologised for his appealing remarks yet, as ever, the damage was already done, which was the intention of course.
To add insult to injury, in a separate incident, a Vote Leave banner was flown over a memorial service for Jo Cox in Trafalgar Square while her bereaved husband Brendan was making a speech.
If you ask me, it doesn't take a Einstein to work out that these Leave campaigners are a completely shameless parcel of rogues

Clumsy: Michael Gove says sorry for comparing experts warning about Brexit to Nazis who smeared Einstein
By MICHAEL SETTLE - The Herald
MICHAEL Gove, the leading Brexiter, has publicly apologised for comparing economic experts warning about Brexit with the Nazis who smeared Albert Einstein in the 1930s.
The embarrassing eve-of-poll move came after David Cameron, in his strongest attack yet on his friend and cabinet colleague, claimed the Scot had "lost it" and had made a "massive mistake" in drawing the comparison.
Apologising for the comments, which he made on LBC radio on Tuesday, Mr Gove said: "Yesterday, I was asked a question by Iain Dale about the predictions of doom for the economy. I answered, as I often do, with a historical analogy. It was clumsy and inappropriate.
