There is a town near me that attracts a lot of far right protestors due to a major child sex abuse scandal. They are overwhelmingly from outside the area and just looking for an excuse for a scrap. The Police tend to kettle them up on an industrial estate for the duration.

It's not unreasonable to think that the sort of neo-nazi terrorism affecting America could easily happen here. There's certainly not a shortage of irrationally angry white men who blame minority groups for absolutely everything in this country.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
