Guardian journalist, expelled from Russia, "MI6 mouthpiece"  Foreign correspondent Dates unknown Employer Guardian

Luke Harding is a British journalist who is a foreign correspondent for The Guardian. He was expelled from Russia in 2011. 'Blackcatte' referred to him as "the Guardian's #1 Russia-Hater", Craig Murray as an "MI6 mouthpiece" and Kit Klarenberg (for Sputnik) as "MI6 tool".

Expulsion from Russia

Harding and was based in Russia from 2007 until, returning from a stay in the UK on 5 February 2011, he was refused re-entry to Russia and deported back the same day. The Guardian said his expulsion was linked to critical articles he wrote on Russia, a claim denied by the Russian government. After the reversal of the decision on 9 February 2011 and the granting of a short-term visa, Harding chose not to seek a further visa extension. His 2011 book "Mafia State" discusses his experience in Russia and the political system under Vladimir Putin.

Disinterest in Katherine Horton's case

When Katherine Horton reported her case to Luke Harding, he asked her "What nationality are you?" and did not show further interest in it.
