Which is exactly what I said earlier; we have hate preachers on both sides and the root cause of both needs to be addressed. Meanwhile, for every far right nutjob who carries out some kind of revenge attack, ISIS notch up another win.

Yup, there are a MINORITY of fanatics on both sides, this will only get worse I am afraid.

Ill-thought out knee jerk reactions will make things worse. From Blair/Bush & the war on terror to Grenfell people need to get an informed picture of events before an understandable extreme reaction.

Tommy - have you seen some of the evil stuff in the Bible?

Sometimes it can work well in fairness. I remember the time Nick Griffin was invited onto Question Time and everyone was going absolutely mental saying he shouldn't be given a platform. But he was, a much higher audience than usual watched, he made himself look an absolute clown and that was the end of the BNP. Unfortunately people like Tommy Robinson and Katie Hopkins aren't quite as thick as Nick Griffin though.
From what I saw Robinson was not allowed to speak and rent-a-gob Morgan just shouted him down. That did not allow Robinson to either come across as nasty or thick - that was what Morgan looked.
