Who is British Graham W. Phillips, journalist taunting Kosovars and stealing a corpse

In recent days the controversial figure of Graham William Phillips, a British journalist living in London, has been currentized.

Phillips, writes Periscope, has been highly unconventional, always confrontational, becoming too unsympathic among his colleagues.

Months ago he had permanently erased his account from the social Twitter network.

An independent British journalist and director, Jake Hanrahan, who also worked for the BBC has accused Phillips of stealing a dead body of a Ukrainian soldier. ”

Another known colleague, Eliot Higgins, was happy with the news of Philiply's Twitter account. Meanwhile, some of Phillips' supporters have applied for his account to be restored, naming it a “attack on freedom of expression”.

Blogger became known during the conflict in eastern Ukraine, where he was often accused of supporting the prorus separatists.

Phillips willingly took pictures of Russian mercenaries, received Russian medals, and the stories he published had openly a Russian perspective on specific issues from which his idea on the Kosovo issue might be said to come.

He has made some coverage in Kosovo, where he found the new state to be the result of ethnic cleansing of Serbs. He mocked Kosovo pro-Americanism and viewed the KLA as a terror organisation. /Periscopi
