From hate speech and misinformation starting on the shores of social media on the internet across the globe, this has generated a movement of fascists and racists smashing like an unwelcome windswept violent storm onto the streets of cities across the UK.

With the stoning of mosques, places of worship and prayer or the attempt to set fire to hotels where immigrants sleep or await their applications of immigration to be processed or the setting fire to police vehicles on the streets to taunting, fighting and beating of emergency services on the streets. This is the ugly side of the political right and racism in the UK.

Where misinformation and hate speech and expression has resulted in an explosion of hate and wanton destruction from those in the right that think the rule of law does not apply to them and that a murderous intent to kill those that are not the same colour or creed as them is normal and to be encouraged.

It’s sickening and they are a minority of people but intend to do the maximum amount of damage and violence. It’s repulsive, it’s wrong and they deserve the full force of the law to be thrown at them and where ever this type of sickness and poison rises up it must be confronted and repelled. The Nazis burnt books in Hitler’s Germany and in Merseyside the fascists burned down a library this weekend and also tried to burn down hotels with refuge applicants in them.

I know a member of my family and a person I went to school with that would follow and support and continue to promote hate speech and misinformation on the internet to promote the far right and perpetuate hate speech to others.

It’s a sad state of affairs to say there really is no stopping what those individuals have said or will say and type. They constantly slide between a fine line of spouting hate speech, lies and misinformation and then boast about going to Facebook jail temporarily being banned from posting lies, hate and misinformation on social media posts. The very few people that I know on social media that would be excited or feel empowered by the last 6 days of hate and violence have either been relatively quite or not spoken out recently in social media posts that I have read or for all I know are already celebrating the fact their serving time in Facebook jail. There have now been over 400 arrests in the UK linked to the last 6 days of violence and protest with no signs of stopping just yet. Those that express hate as a form of patriotism are not patriots and any excuses to say that they are reacting to the murder of 3 young girls while at a dance studio last week in Southport which was an initial justification for the outpouring of lies and hate speech leading to egged on actions of violence and hate. Violence with a murderous intent is not grief. I have decided not to show any photos of the rioting in the UK as I do not wish to promote the mindless violence in any way that has been taking place.
