One resident described a time when Mr. Osborne had shouted at his family and thrown things around his garden.<br />Numerous residents here said that Mr. Osborne was often agitated, even disturbed,<br />but few described him as frightening and none said he had expressed political sentiments, much less anti-Muslim or far-right ones — until last weekend, when he was kicked out of a local pub, the Hollybush, after a drunken tirade.
