I’ve more time, just, for Nigel Farage than I have for Zack Polanski, but the latter was quite right not to apologize for sharing the post. There is far, far too much apologizing by politicians for things for which they are not the slightest bit responsible, or feel the smallest remorse. The reason is presumably that they wish to distract attention from things for which they are abundantly to blame.

Farage makes a tactical mistake by reporting it to the police, however, one he wouldn’t have made if at the top of his game. The message on the T-shirt, which was quite witty, was incitement to judicial execution if it was incitement to anything. You ought to be able to incite that, and Nigel makes himself look thin-skinned and foolish by complaining about it.
