The only ones who wanted to give him a roughing up in Olney were the Muslim prisoners there. No one needs to 'stop the Muslims'. We have a problem with neo Nazis and radical Islamists, and a pox on both of them

A bare assertion with no evidence

Granted, but that's only one axis of the political graph

That genie's been out of the bottle about half a century since we legalised abortion and changed the definition of marriage by legalising divorce. Not new news at all

I don't think May gives two hoots about Yaxley-Lennon and his dodgy acolytes: she has far more pressing worries on her hands with Brexit and controlling her own party and her own government; I very much doubt that Yaxley-Lennon is one of the things keeping her awake at night. Even if he was...
