Full on roaming EDL gangs. Pretty insane stuff. This article doesn't do it justice. Most of the footage I've seen has been on Instagram.
The craziest part is they started in response to a misogynist terror attack in Southport. The suspect of the terror attack was Welsh born, with parents from Rwanda, and is most likely Christian. So naturally they started lynching Muslims.
EDIT: This next part is dubious.
Apparently before it all kicked off there was a russian clickfarm that posted a fake article calling the suspect 'Ali Muhammad' or some sort of very stereotypical islamic name, before all the real information had come out.
I mean, not that you can really blame it all on that. It was just a fuse waiting to be lit.

In Poland they call this "genetic patriotism" (to preemptively exclude not only PoC but also every Pole they don't like) to be observed for at least 4 generations back, but of course the guy who coined and proudly used this term didn't even had that genetic patriotism reaching to himself because his mother was a German and the language used in his his home was also German, they just rapidly changed political and national identity in a time strangely coinciding with utter defeat of Germany in WW2.
And it works the same, polish-american chud not speaking word in Polish but voting for PiS is more Polish than even a normal liberal.
