The targeted outrage when white women and girls are raped and assaulted, but only if it’s done by an immigrant, is by far the most insidious, dishonest, wicked and craven type of fake virtue signalling.

Why do so many UK rioters, who claim they want to defend women against attack from immigrants, keep attacking the women in their own lives?

Henry Nowak was failed in the last moments of his life – and then again by Britain’s disgraceful political class, by Jason Okundaye

“There are vital lessons to be learned from Nowak’s death. Instead, it has been used to refuel a pervasive lie about ethnic minorities and ‘two-tier’ policing...

Rage did indeed come, in the form of riots in Southampton, complete with Nazi salutes and neo-fascists present. This is all despite the explicit wishes of Nowak’s family that “we do not want [Henry’s] death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We want his story to make our streets safer for everyone.”

But, weakened by scandals, outflanked on the right by Restore Britain and anxious about its chances in the upcoming Makerfield byelection, Reform is clearly desperate for any kind of culture-war flashpoint to stir up anger in service of its populist project. Do these men know no shame?

It feels perverse that such a tragedy being recast in racial terms makes it necessary to restate the facts of policing in this country.

And yet this is necessary because the right has been allowed to seize the narrative around Nowak’s death to construct an inverted reality.

Inequality in policing plainly does exist, and it has been borne out over decades by collected data.

Black people in Britain are seven times more likely than white people to die after police restraint.

Black children in England and Wales are almost eight times more likely to be strip-searched and are also overrepresented in the use of force through tasers and handcuffs.

The disparity in these issues have been campaigned against for decades. And yet, as in the case of UFFC and other campaigns, campaigners have always recognised how bad policing makes all of us unsafe.

Nowak’s case could be pulled into this long history of policing failures; instead it has been spun as a nativist tale that represents the threat that immigrant and minority communities present to white British people.

Where is the government to steer us through all of this? The policing minister, Sarah Jones, has come out to criticise anti-discrimination guidance, stating that a framework that suggests treating black and white suspects differently “gives the wrong impression”. Perhaps there is a need to review such guidance. But none of this has to do with the circumstances of Nowak’s death, or the fact that bad policing allowed him to suffer such indignity. That Digwa disgracefully lied about racial abuse has provided a convenient narrative, but his lies should not undermine the necessity of anti-racist practices among the police forces.

Our leaders have been worse than useless. The home secretary, Shabana Mahmood, says that: “The police in this country have a sacred duty: to police without fear or favour. Everyone is equal before the law.” Starmer says that there are serious questions for the police on “how accusations of racism inform decision-making in this case”.

Can none of our political leaders bring themselves to say that two-tier policing is a myth, and inequality and racism is still present in the institution?

Can none of them say that the life of any person in police custody should be preserved in any circumstance?

Like the family of Lee Rigby, who rejected the exploitation of his murder for political purposes, the cowardice and opportunism of our politicians has likely condemned the Nowaks to seeing their son reduced to a pawn in this country’s increasingly violent culture wars.

Nowak died not being believed by those who were meant to protect him. The least we could do is refuse to allow others to exploit his death to write more fiction.”

Sick & tired of people being unable comprehend that you can totally decry Farage for inciting violence and rage AND ALSO believe that the murder of Henry Nowak was utterly horrendous and that the police got it very wrong.
These things are NOT mutually exclusive!
