Such a sad story, my heart goes out to Noah's family. But the public response is an accurate picture of the real Britain. It didn't matter who Noah was or what colour he was, he was someone's little boy and people came to help to try and find him ❤️ RIP Noah www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Just had a Reform doorstep encounter where, as soon as I said that there is no such thing as 'illegal immigration', they disengaged. When I stated that Farage was racist and fascist they got very shouty and aggressive. They target low IQ voters. Disagree and they adopt Farage's 'BORING' approach.
