The rage that Neve seems to inspire in so many older white males
I am always genuinely taken aback when I hear or read the malice some seem to have towards the Prime Minister’s infant child, and Neve appearing at Ratana this year seems to have triggered some of our more snowflake older white males into fits of foaming anger.
