I am afraid and for those very reasons. Thank you for putting into words. Here in the UK, many of us are still in shock that 52% voted for Brexit. The campaign to leave the EU was driven by a racist agenda, and since the referendum vote, hate crimes including race crimes have risen according to the police, and a Polish man murdered. Demagogues such as Donald Trump and Nigel Farage scapegoat vulnerable people for the failures of banking and government systems, all the while posing as “anti-establishment” figures. It is a horrific con trick, and it legitimises hate.
