People aren't naturally like this. Well, some are. But they're cunts. In general, folk are decent. They might have questionable views and baser instincts, but they keep them in check. Until the far right gives them permission to behave like this...

Reform UK Party Ltd spent £700,000 on a 2-page spread — one page being just an image of Farage and the other a letter, meaning he spent £350,000 on pictures of himself. The average UK house price is £272,000. Also, the ‘full English’ is badly photoshopped on — it's tiny!
