Why the selective quote, Stanron? Why not give us the next line

They said there were "spikes in hate crime following certain events such as the EU Referendum and the terrorist attacks in 2017."

Why not tell us how many leave supporters have been murdered for their views?

Or how many times you have been told to "fuck off back to Poland where you belong"

Or been called a traitor who should be taken out and shot?

Or how many remain posters showed hoards of dodgy dark skinned characters waiting to come and take your jobs?

Maybe then you can tell us that brexit has nothing to do with the increase in hate crime.
