IN England and Northern Ireland, we’ve witnessed waves of horrifying scenes. The far-right have mobilised together in order to commit nationalist and anti-Muslim acts of violence on British soil. All founded on the false premise that the perpetrator accused of murdering those innocent children in Southport was a Muslim immigrant. In fact the suspect is as British as those mindless pawns who took to the streets to project their opposition to migrants.

I’ve witnessed the blame being directed on working-class communities. A sentiment I strongly oppose. Sure, like any walk of life these areas do possess some individuals. Those who are unable to process the stinging reality that the character of a person isn’t defined by their race or religion. But the very idea that immigrants somehow pose a risk to British society and its values doesn’t originate from socially deprived housing schemes.

These beliefs were founded in the minds of privately educated multi-millionaires who decided to use their far-reaching platforms to pollute the minds of those susceptible to such ideas. They appeal to audiences who are looking for someone to blame for their lack of social mobility and thus when the establishment offer an easy target. That is when these sheep willingly latch onto them. The rhetoric we witnessed from the Conservative government on immigration lit a fuse where the failings from the lack of employment opportunities to the decline of the NHS was laid at the door of immigration. A ridiculous notion which gives birth to these "protesters" truly believing that an individual from Yemen, someone who has escaped unspeakable horrors and has risked their life to find a new home in the UK deserves no say in the country they now live?

Of course not, that’s ridiculous. Britain’s decline is a result of the mismanagement and greed of the rich and powerful. Hence why they seek to create division by pitting the far-right supporters against those immigrants who simply want a better life for themselves and their families.

The truth is the "elite" know if these thugs were to be injected with a potent dose of truth serum, they would soon admit their position in the world isn’t determined by immigrants. Consequently, they would soon come to realisation that those standing on the podium spouting their venom could be considered the real enemy.

Since the Tory cabinet was disbanded, we’ve bore witness to the right-wing agenda baton being passed onto controversial public figures such as Nigel Farage. A man who always appears on screen as if he’s readying himself for another fox hunt. Yet, according to those blinded by hatred, they seem to feel he represents the interests of the British people. Seriously? Do these individuals really believe Farage mirrors the struggle of the working class?

A guy who thinks he becomes champion of the workers by simply holding a pint? This is a man who would more than likely want to scalp each and every worker if he could get a decent rate on dandruff. A stockbroker who knows nothing about hardship. Unless, of course, M&S are short on smoked salmon.

Then there’s Tommy Robinson. A self-proclaimed journalist who incites hatred at will. He speaks and you just know some defenceless minority will suffer. This is a guy who happily drove these thugs onto the streets to create terror. And then inexplicably found himself on his way to a five-star resort in Cyprus. A true leader of fascism with the roar of a "lion" and the courage of a scared little bunny.

For me, the far-right movement is nothing more than a brand for these apparent mouthpieces to swipe money from the pockets of their supporters, all the while enjoying some airtime and infamy. As they know without sparkling in resentment they have no authority in the UK. I truly believe these fascists will be resoundingly defeated, but not by politicians. Their loss will be at the hands of the working class, who have galvanised and hit the streets this week to illuminate the fact that we have far more in common with immigrants arriving in dinghies than a pupil of Eton rocking up in the latest Porsche.

My latest novel titled Who’s Aldo? an action packed Scottish comedy is really connecting with readers. Aldo is a Scottish Muslim character who will live long in your memory and is available from all good bookshops and Amazon.
