I think Bylines should do a piece on how Boris Johnson was able to rip up a report that the UK was a racist country and the narrative that’s swirling around about the boat people and other minorities and how people who seemed to be protected like Nigel Farage who loves spreading disinformation to get people all riled up!

There is a reason we must fight for Missouri and Louisiana.
