Just like how the Drumpf campaign is emboldening the racists and xenophobes in the US, there seems to be a massive uptick in racial incidents in the UK, following the Brexit vote. One Facebook post that’s been all over my timeline is by user Sara Childs, documenting almost 200 stories of people being told to leave the country, being attacked, and, just plain hate speech.
They’ve also now started a group called Worrying Signs, where they are collecting even more stories. Some screenshots below the fold, far more in the first FB link, and even more in the group. I fear that we are on the verge of returning to some very dark times in the not so distant past.
