Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 19-6-2017

What on Earth is going on in the UK?

I’ve woken up to news that, just after midnight, last night?

A van has been driven into a crowd of worshippers at Finsbury Park Mosque, injuring 10 and potentially killing one.

I know who I’m blaming.

The idiots that carried out the Westminster and London Bridge Attacks.

Apparently?   The driver of the van involved, was a white man reported to be saying he wanted to ‘kill all muslims.’

To me?

That sounds like an extreme right-wing … 

I’m tempted to say ‘nutter,’ there.

Instead I’ll call him an an extreme right-wing terrorist.

Personally?

I’m hoping we don’t get open war on the streets.

But I’m not surprised there’s been a backlash.

Britain’s got several fine old traditions.

But also got a nasty streak of racism that’s contributed to this.
