鈥� I have these epiphanies all the time, especially if I had anchovies on my pizza..鈥� Could the White Helmets be involved in staging chemical attacks?

When James Le Mesurier fell to his death in Turkey in 2019 he left behind a tangle of truths and lies. Mayday tells the extraordinary real story of the man who organised the White Helmets 鈥� rescuers who film themselves pulling survivors from bombed out buildings in rebel-held areas of Syria 鈥� and investigates claims that, far from being heroes, they are part of a very elaborate hoax. James Le Mesurier 鈥� his detractors say 鈥� was a British secret agent, pulling the strings. So when his body was found by worshippers on their way to morning prayers, there were a lot questions.
