Farage criticized for using murder victim's death to appeal to racist supporters

Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
The article is a strongly opinionated piece criticizing Nigel Farage for exploiting a personal tragedy (the murder of a man's son) for political gain. It describes Farage's shift from holding press conferences to making online "addresses to the nation" from home, portraying this as a sign of weakness and fear of scrutiny. The piece accuses Farage of using the opportunity to appeal to racist elements and spread division, despite the victim's father explicitly asking that his son's death not be used for such purposes.
