"Leave the word 'patriotism' for your efforts to make this country a kinder, more egalitarian place, and one that is less dangerous to the rest of the world." - Barbara Ehrenreich  View this email in your browser Yesterday, white supremacist Thomas Mair was found guilty of killing the Labour MP Jo Cox. Now with the trial over, our first piece today suggests it's time to realise that pushing a politics of fear and resentment against immigrants has real and sometimes fatal consequences. It argues that true patriotism involves an honest assessment of what is both great and what is ugly about our culture. Elsewhere, we have a piece which suggests that the government's new porn bill could have serious implications for individual privacy.
