This man is first & foremost a misogynist with violent impulses. He adopted a cause which seemed to give him a free outlet for that dangerous hatred. This might well have been subconscious but it was undoubtedly what drew Mullen & so many others like him to this ‘activism’

@conorgriffin11 @wesstreeting @EHRC That Labour isn't exhibiting disproportionate levels of anti-Semitism? Also, responding with "Tpries have a bigger Islamaphobia problem" is not helpful - it's a distraction tactic and, as such, a failure to grasp issue. Absolutely right that EHRC should investigate BOTH parties.
