It is part of this "narrative of deflection" that I previously mentioned Jim. Right-wing c#### like Patel, Trump, Johnson, Gove, Farage etc thrive in addressing some form of violence, looting, negativity attached to protests and use the technique of tarring everyone ("look at ALL these terrorists" or similar slurs) when they are actually referring, in this case, to a very small minority of the BLM movement/protesters!! That is how these morons operate and they should be challenged in the way that the bbc's Emily Maitliss did it last week to a Trump propagandist (a disingenuous black guy btw!) with a cutting interjection, "Wait a minute, you are not getting away with that untrue statement"! The guy tried to rhetorically insinuate that all US protesters were looters!! She rightly "put him down" on that score.
