Victoria Derbyshire, "Keir Starmer telling Nigel Farage he has exploited the Henry Nowak case, is he right?"

Telegraphs' Annabel Denham, "Err, no, I don't think the PM is right"

Labour's Tom Hayes, "I'm just shocked by that, you've got a grieving family going through some of the worst experience anyone can ever know, and they've called on Nigel Farage not to exploit the death of their boy; and he literally did that in the House of Commons"

"Nigel Farage was given the opportunity to condemn the violence, which he himself incited, by calling for protests. He could have condemned the violence"

Annabel Denham, "Do you truly believe that the people in Southampton would have not taken to the streets in response to that sickening footage?"

Tom Hayes, "I spoke to the Southampton MP, the vast majority of people in their city protesting, came from outside Southampton"

"On top of that, Nigel Farage said this evening that there will be more to come"

[OldishBird @oldishbird1]

@PutBritain_1st The killer has been given a life sentence, the mother convicted of tampering with evidence, the father and brother charged with weapons offences and the police being investigated. That’s where justice comes from, not inciting violent thugs to riot against police.

We've seen this before.

Farage stokes racial tensions, implicitly incites riots, people get hurt.

Pretty grim stuff

[Candice Holmes @hol40900]

.@Nigel_Farage "Pure cold rage" you asked for it. You got it.
A 72-year-old Sikh pensioner had his head stamped on. Cheekbone shattered. Six teenagers arrested.

Your words have consequences. Your silence is complicity.

Happy now? 👑

[LBC @LBC]

Nigel Farage urged his supporters to react to Henry Nowak's murder with 'pure, cold rage'.

Eleven police officers were injured during unrest in Southampton last night.

James O'Brien asks: 'Is that cold enough for you'?

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

I’m not going to amplify Reform’s ad by sharing it, but the wilful misrepresentation of Kemi Badenoch - selectively quoting what she said about ‘white lives matter’ - is disgraceful and dangerous.

It needs to be challenged, including by those of us who are not Conservatives.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 WATCH: Nigel Farage is repeatedly heckled by MPs as he calls on Keir Starmer to end "two-tier policing"

Starmer: "His response has been to appeal for rage. That’s his response to a father who lost his son & asked for this not to happen... it shows exactly who he is"

[Harry Eccles @Heccles94]

The family asked for peace and privacy.

Nigel Farage gave them riots.

[Shabana Mahmood MP @ShabanaMahmood]

The scenes this evening in Portswood are completely unacceptable.

The Nowak family made a powerful call to us all yesterday to not let Henry’s death be used to create further division, hatred or tension.

There can be no justification for hijacking this tragedy to stir up violence and disorder. Those responsible can expect to face the full force of the law.

I thank the police who have tonight shown great bravery and calm in the face of disgraceful violence directed at them.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

@simon4124 The father of Henry Nowak begging people not to use his son's murder to create division.

But you don't care.

[LBC @LBC]

'How dare he pour flames on that, and bring all of this back?!'

Liz Webster, the mother of Henry Webster who was attacked in 2007, brands Nigel Farage 'the most irresponsible politician in Britain right now', after his comments on the murder of Henry Nowak.

[(((Dan Hodges))) @DPJHodges]

Number of people asking me to comment on the Henry Nowak case. His father said "We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension". If you can't respect his wishes, you're scum. That's what I think.

[Simon Harris @SimonHarrisMBD]

Henry Nowak’s father said the following earlier:

“We want to use Henry’s heartbreaking story to make change for the better. We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred or tension. We want his story to help make our streets safer for everyone.“

These are his family’s wishes. They should be respected by all.

@janepotter1 @TinyWriterLaura @Waffles2026 He is my husband, but to other people he is a stranger, hanging around. I am used to sharing general space - tubes, queues, etc with random men - often with no more than inches between us so I am not worried about changing rooms.

“One child told inspectors he had watched through his window as another child was stabbed and had “found that scary”.”

Prison is a toxic place for children, and spending even a few days in that environment can be terrifying and profoundly damaging. https://t.co/ziot6pNLd3

[UK Prime Minister @10DowningStreet]

NEW: Landlords and courts will get new powers to evict domestic abuse perpetrators from social homes, without the victim having to leave first.

Under legislation introduced by this government, perpetrators will no longer be able to use social housing as a weapon of control.

That's alongside building more homes and reforming the Right to Buy scheme, all part of our reforms to deliver stability for families in social housing.

[Cllr Kelly Grehan 🌹 @Kelly_Grehan]

@janepotter1 @TinyWriterLaura @Waffles2026 I might come out to ask my husband to do the zip up, or see what he thinks too. It might surprise you - some people are out shopping with friends / relatives of the opposite gender to them.

[Cllr Kelly Grehan 🌹 @Kelly_Grehan]

@archer_rs @marksandspencer I cannot imagine when or where I would care who is in the locked cubicle next door.

[Cllr Kelly Grehan 🌹 @Kelly_Grehan]

@archer_rs @marksandspencer I won't make any assumptions about your gender, but speaking as a cis woman I love the M&S set up. The rooms are single person, with plenty of room if you have chilldren/someone you care for with you. People with you - can have a sit down and wait for you.
