The frighteningly large 110,000 London crowd who turned up for career criminal Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, aka Tommy Robinson's, disunite the kingdom hate-fest illustrated the dangerous divisions in our country.

And the Prime Minister was spot-on that we must "never surrender" our flags to the boots, fists and bottles of far-right racist bullies assaulting whoever gets in their way.

But Starmer playing grovelling host to Trump, an authoritarian nationalist and attempted coup leader - who inspires our far-right extremists as well as those in America - is stomach-churning.
