Utter horseshit, it’s thugs like this radicalising the goons who follow him and his ilk by stoking the hatred of foreigners with the language of violence that has resulted in the huge spike in racism already linked to by borderer. I can’t believe people are yet again allowing themselves to be conned by this grifter if the current polls are to be believed.
