Disabled, knackered & generally quite angry about politics. Love cats & LFC though, so life isn’t all bad.

@withnailjones @RobKenyonReform Is it possible to die from cringing too hard?

[Sarah Blohm @bloomer71]

@0Calamity I don’t think I’d even heard about this murder. Earlier I was looking at info on deaths in police/prison custody, there are some shocking cases which I doubt elicited a peep from folk who have had a lot to say about poor Henry’s murder.

[Don McGowan @donmcgowan]

Farage has achieved his goal — to return from his hiding place with such outrageous statements that he hopes the questions about his £5m donation are now forgotten.

The media are duly obliging by focusing on his racist dog whistles instead of his corruption.

Trumpian.

Henry Nowak's mother has said:

"We are a family who have friends across faith and race, and so did Henry. We want his memory to help bring our society together."

And there you have it.

Israel yesterday kidnapped four women. Two are footballers in the Palestinian National Team.

Their names are: Natali Abu Dia and Rand Halwani.

Is it normal to kidnap footballers, @FIFAcom? Where are sports media organisations? This story should be the headline everywhere.

[Mel @Villgecrazylady]

These are the four college girls, including one American citizen, the IDF kidnapped in the middle of the night from their homes and threw into their torture dungeons.

Jolan Abu Awwad, Natali Abu Dayya, Laila Nael Khalil, Sama Safi

Israel has a policy called “administrative detention” that allows them to kidnap Palestinians and imprison them for 6 month increments without any charges whatsoever. These holdings can drag out for years.

Over 3,000 Palestinians were being held on administrative detention in Israeli prisons on October 7. That’s why Hamas took all those Israelis back to Gaza. To exchange for their release.

But do you see how that works? When Israel kidnaps people and holds them for months and years on end, they are simply “prisoners on administrative detention.” But when Hamas does it, they are “hostages.”

"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.”

I am in awe of Henry Nowak's family.
Anyone callously ignoring their wishes deserves nothing but contempt.

@AndrewDuncanJo2 @FootballHQ As a scouser & a red I’m obviously not normally a fan of Sir Alex but this is class - I’m so sorry you went through losing your son.

[Zara Hussain @zarahussain999]

At Tommy Robinson Southampton protest, a speaker said

"Our nation has been invaded... Many of them bow down to the false god of Islam. This is a Christian nation."

Islam has nothing to do with Henry Nowak’s death. The killer is Sikh and the police officers are white….so why include anti Muslim comments?

It’s disgusting and very disappointing for his family that his death has been exploited by the far right.

Nigel Farage's work over the last 11 weeks broken down:

- Parliamentary votes registered (including on immigration): 0

- Violent racial divisions stoked: 1

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Just watch this…

And for the love of God, please see Farage for what he is.

His response to Sarah Everard Vs his response to Henry Nowak

Jaw dropping.

[Richard Murphy @RichardJMurphy]

Why did the BBC describe rioters in Southampton last night as ‘protestors’. They weren’t protestors, they were rioters. Where has the BBC's objectivity gone? Why can't they tell the truth?

🚨🇮🇱 BREAKING: In a leaked interview, IDF commander confesses to murdering a family.

"I told my soldier - you see that window? Bomb there. He tells me 'there's a family there.' I told him I don't give a fuck. Burn them all."

[Sarah Blohm @bloomer71]

@benonwine You should publicly apologise for wrongly targeting a woman who had left Hampshire police over a year before Henry’s murder. Anything happens to her as a result of idiots wrongly identifying her will have blood on their hands. That includes you.

[Simon Harris @SimonHarrisMBD]

An important post to share please - it concerns an ex-police officer (PC Christi Hill) who has been incorrectly named all over social media as one of the officers involved in the Henry Nowak case.

[Don McGowan @donmcgowan]

Over the last 36 hours, we have witnessed the very soul of Nigel Farage — his essence.

It has been over a month since he went into hiding, since serious questions began to be raised over his undeclared £5M donation.

A month since he appeared in front of TV cameras or underwent any questioning at all.

At 8am yesterday morning, Farage released a video, from a field somewhere, calling for rage. Calling for an end to the mythical two-tier policing.

Make no mistake, those were very carefully chosen words — he understood what he was unleashing, and his wish was granted last night in Southampton.

On Tuesday, the Home Secretary made a statement to the House regarding the murder of Henry Nowack. There was, as always, an opportunity to question Shabana Mahmood — was Nigel Farage in attendance?

No, of course not.

Today, Farage was granted a question at PMQs — the showpiece spectacle of the political week in which the country's news and politics fanatics tune in to watch — was Nigel Farage in attendance?

Yes, of course he was.

He had somehow found his way into work after missing 77 separate votes in Parliament because … he would, at least for three minutes, be the centre of the country's political attention.

His question was about the murder of Henry Nowack and the violence that erupted [on his command] last night, but he would not condemn it or call for calm.

Instead, he 'suggested' that this rioting might escalate.

This afternoon, he has performatively written to the BBC because someone on Newsnight dared to accuse him of inciting the violence — playing his perpetual victim card. Again.

And there we see the soul of Nigel Farage — a craven, desperate for attention, evil, petty and pointless man.

END RANT.

[Socialist Opera Singer @OperaSocialist]

Nigel Farage's "pure cold rage" means violent racists giving Nazi salutes.

Farage and Reform are a danger to the whole UK.

[Paul Nowak @nowak_paul]

When someone shows you who they really are, take notice.

[The Rev. Anton Mittens 🌹👮🎓 @MittensOff]

Farage at #PMQs today, the first time he’s shown his face in Parliament for months. I suspect he may regret it. He was absolutely slated for failing to condemn the violence in Southampton, for ignoring the appeal made by Henry Nowak’s father, and for using his son’s death to stir up hate and division. #Farage #FarageRiots #PMQs

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

What’s going on in Southampton isn’t about injustice, it’s about male violence.

It’s knuckle dragging scum being incited into angry mobs by multimillionaires.

They’re bored, racist radicalised idiots.
