'The dangers of misinformation' - Your Letters: January 30

PM's REMARKS ARE DANGEROUS

After the riots following the Southport killings, Keir Starmer made much of the spreading of misinformation and the danger this poses. Those responsible for such activity were dealt with swiftly and given hefty sentences and Mr Starmer appeared on our screens to trumpet his government’s emphatic response.

I wonder if Mr Starmer isn’t guilty of the same offence when he decided to demonise those he refers to as, ‘loners’ and ‘misfits’. He wants us to think of such people as potential terrorists. 

This is nothing new of course. History shows many examples of people, perceived as ‘outsiders’ ‘loners’ and ‘misfits’ being burned as witches, attacked and generally terrorised for being ‘different’.

How many vigilantes, self righteous prigs, and downright trouble makers will be galvanised into riotous and criminal action following Mr Starmer’s crass and inflammatory remarks?
