Nigel Farage's speech today directly incited violence and abuse towards MPs.
This language was deeply irresponsible, hateful and designed to divide. There is no 'us' and 'them'. When we seek to disunite, we damage only ourselves.

Our thoughts go out to the families of the dead and wounded, the Muslim community in NZ and Muslims around the world.
Hate doesn't have a creed, race or religion. Now, we must continue to fight together against hatred in all its forms and for the values that truly unite us.
When the flames of hatred are fanned, when people are demonised because of their faith, when we play on people's fears rather than addressing them, the consequences are deadly, as we have seen so sadly today.
