But Nathan Rogers posted: "She shouldn't have to apologise if the person was indeed a horrible racist."

Pupils at St John's Primary School in Belper have been told to stay at home on Friday while the school is deep cleaned to prevent a sickness bug spreading any further.

Head teacher Roger Averis said: "On Wednesday, 48 children were absent from school, with the majority of parents saying this was due to their child suffering from a sickness bug.

“I took immediate advice from the appropriate agencies and we believe the sickness is viral, which means it can be easily spread from pupil to pupil.

“Following advice from Derbyshire Health and Safety and Public Health England yesterday and today I believe the best course of action to stop the bug spreading is to close the school on Friday and carry out a further deep-clean.

“I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause due to the short notice but we do not want any more children becoming ill and want to ensure we do all we can to stop the bug spreading."

I’ve been with Labour’s EU Referendum battle bus this morning in Sawley, near Long Eaton. One of the passengers seems not to have enjoyed the entire visit.

Labour's shadow Europe minister, Pat Glass, said: “The very first person I come to was a horrible racist. I’m never coming back to wherever this is.”

The voter Mrs Glass had been speaking to denied being racist, but said he was concerned some of his Polish neighbours were "scroungers", who didn't work.

Mrs Glass says immigration has been one of the main issues on the doorstep when she's been campaigning.
