THIS article is a tribute to one of the nicest men I never met.

I got to know long-time journalist and author Roger Guttridge at a news group set up to push back against the relentless pro-official covid narratives filling the airwaves.

That was back in early 2021, and we spent countless hours on the phone and in Zoom meetings after that, and to hear he had passed away on August 8 at the age of 73 after a long battle with leukaemia was truly devastating.

I have lost a close friend, and it is a great regret we never met in person, but like so many freedom-fighting friendships that have emerged since 2020, they have been forged through networking on the internet, and are often between people who live hundreds of miles apart.
