Might have done a bit of a rant at my MP. It's quite a nice feeling actually. Give it a go.

It has been promoted and pushed and egged and funded and nurtured by social media, where the racism, the hate. the disdain for our country's values is open and constant - and which remains unregulated to the cost of us all; and by the British media, also entirely unregulated (I suppose we could crowd fund some dentures for Ofcom but I remain unconvinced that it would know what to do with them), including those parts of it which are most trusted by the British public (link to BBC article below, where the thugs are referred to as if they are ordinary protesters, and a life-threatening criminal act in the channel aqainst RNLI staff is relegated to a brief mention in paragraph 15).

We used to hear "both sides" from the news. and even then, that was an absurd position, where only one side ever provided facts, and the other only ever provided feelings. We don't hear that any more. Now we only hear one side. it is the racist. hateful side. and it is framed, always, as "legitimate concerns".

They are not legitimate. We saw no village-wide protest from Piddington, when they had 2,600 mostly white young men in those barracks, and endured crimes, including rape, associated with those men. But 1200 brown men? Suddenly that's "legitimate concerns". It isn't. It's racism.

We cannot predicate the human rights of a person upon the strong feelings of a group that hates them.

That is not how human rights work ir this country, or it didn't used to be. We have done precisely this to trans people in this country - handed their harmless lives directly to the tiny, well- connected, well-funded group that hates them most. We are now normalising racism in precisely the same way. This is going to destroy our society.

What we need from the government urgently is:-
• Press regulation, sharp-eared enough to identify a dogwhistle and bold enough to call it what it is: with the good of our inclusive society at it's core and meaningful punishments
• Social media regulation: frankly X should be shut down. and the embarrassing fact that we don't want to annoy the chief nazi because he owns Starlink needs to be faced, because X's continued influence or our society must end. Facebook isn't much better: regulate them or end them.

• We need clear, unequivocal statements from our PM. and from our MPs, about the fact that this is racism and terrorism. It is not "legitimate concerns".
• We need these Blackshirts and their leaders proscribed as terrorists, and sentenced accordingly
• And we need a concerted public information campaign to offset the colossal, constant untruths the press and social media have propagated: our society has hardly any crime. Refugees aren't disproportionately criminal. And tell people what benefits refugees get because it's shockingly low and people believe utter nonsense they read on Facebook. Educate people! We used to have incredibly effective public information films on prime time TV - I'm old enough to remember when drink driving went from "a bit of a laugh, ho ho ho evervone does it," to "nobody does that now" virtually overniqht, because of such a campaign.

I realise government is hard, and that our current qovernment is tasked with undoing 20 years of utter incompetence. But that must start from the basis of British values. "Respect and dignity" isn't an idea. It's an action, taken every day, it's the courage to stand up against hate, every day, and to call it what it is and to say the uncomfortable thing and sometimes, yes, the unpopular thing.

I hope that our government has this courage. I have not seen it yet,
Yours faithfully,
