It's heartening to see at least one news outlet report asylum stories that are actually about the lives of the people affected - asylum seekers themselves. Such a contrast with the way so much of the media breathlessly hypes every utterance of the far right.

The UK does not have a "migrant crisis" or a "small boat crisis". It has a racism crisis, and it has been deliberately created.

Created by grifters like farridge and jenrick. Sadly, there are enough shaven headed morons around to give the maniacs traction.

Actually no. The protest have been _incredibly_ small. This is 100% a media confection, and they will not stop until someone spills blood. In the main, the UK public, who do have poor attitudes to migrant, I agree, have not risen to the bait. Not for the lack of trying by the press though!
