It's been a rough month for Britain, a country that is sailing into a vast mist of uncertainty with no captain at the helm and barely a breeze in its sails.
Its two presumptive leaders in Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage have been forced to walk the plank or jump
ship and the possibility of a mass mutiny still threatens to scupper the whole vessel.
After the referendum the UK saw a wave of hate crimes, a polish community centre in West London was defaced with hate speech and there have been numerous reports of racist incidents and attacks.
This week, in a more altruistic turn, one anonymous east Londoner left out a pot of flowers in Hackney with a note on it saying: "If you are a migrant to the UK, please take a flower and know you are welcome here."
