This morning I’m thinking of the grieving families of Bebe, Elsie & Alice. We will not let acts of hatred tarnish their memory. The mob in Southport may have gone home, but the threat of the far right remains. This is a wake-up call for those who have emboldened them by parroting their rhetoric and pandering to their ideas. The only antidote to hatred is hope. The vast majority of people in Southport, and across the country, respond to horror the only way they know how: with compassion, unity and solidarity. They should inspire us that, if we come together, we can bring about a kinder and safer society for all.
