@patrickhadfield Thanks for sharing this. A very interesting read. But I think Hinsliff's partial sympathy for Truss is misplaced. She doesn't deserve any.
@snigdha I remember when Theresa May was PM being worried that the incessant attacks bordered bullying and misogyny. But then she was acting to take away my rights and European identity. Fair game!
@patrickhadfield Theresa May, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss and Rishi Sunak have stoked up anti-migrant feeling, to the point that we ended up having racist riots for a whole weekend, leaving migrants and people of colour in the UK scared for their own safety. They all can get in the bin. Sorry if that's harsh.
Good point, It was for more than a week though rather than a whole weekend. But I get your point.
We need to deal with the issues that led to the riots, starting misinformation about who killed the 3 girls.
