A step-by-step guide to why saying 'I want my country back' is inherently racist, sexist and homophobic.

1. Logically, 'back' means there was an earlier time when the country was 'ours'

2. The same people wanted it 'back' from the EU in 2016 too, and won. Well done you!

Five healthcare giants - Bridgepoint, Bupa, Centene, Spire, UnitedHealth Group - have won a share of the NHS contracts worth £70 bn.

74. Migration news, and it was found the Bibby Stockholm is now storing 6 migrants in rooms designed for one person
