Anyone familiar with the career of Lee Anderson may not have been surprised at the way he expressed his feelings yesterday — he told migrants who didn’t like the idea of staying on a barge (a prison hulk-like vessel criticised by charities as unsuitable for human accommodation) that they could “f*** off back to France”.
This is after all the MP who has challenged Brexit protesters to fist fights, claimed that foodbank users “can’t cook”, and supports the death penalty, on the grounds that “nobody has ever committed a crime after being executed”.
