The murder of Charlie Kirk was wrong – like all murders; but the mindless bollox spouted by Trump and Farage is also wrong – possibly worse. Trump and fellow fanatics have been calling for revenge, farage in the Daily Fucking Mail has responsibility for the murder at the doors of the left. They cannot be so stupid to see that it is their own rhetoric of hate that spawns this violence. The demonstrations against the genocide in Gaza have been generally peaceful whilst those on the right outside Asylum hotels have been tinged with the threat of violence. In these situations we need our political leaders to be calm and dispel the hatred, not trying to whip up more disharmony in our already fractured society. farage is also wrong – the evidence so far (and he does not care about evidence) appears to lay the focus on Kirks anti-trans rhetoric. Whilst his views were appalling and nasty – the individual is entitled to heinious views – the blame also lies with media coverage of extremists comments. people like him should be shunned in the pub and certainly not allowed to spout crap on TV, Press and other media outlets.
So I regret his death but will not mourn the C***!
