This thread. If we actually had strong leadership within the WM government who spoke about our responsibility in helping refugees (humanising them) and spoke about the need the UK has for migrants, maybe the racists, extremists wouldn't be so emboldened.
There are, in my view, 25 things everyone needs to understand in light of recent events:
1) Those out in our communities last night were not protestors, but organised far right extremists.
2) Their actions align with fascist ideologies.
3) So yes: these are fascist practices on our streets.
