@MrAndyNgo @soyoprincess If they had no real evidence on the man why such a detailed description of who he was?

@truemagic68 I’m not sure Sinner is well-liked on the tennis circuit. Andrew Castle probably doesn’t care anymore after being dumped by the BBC.

When you close the door of No10 behind you, remember to turn off your Twitter feed. It has, as much all your policy mis-steps, strategic errors and vapid personality, been a constant reminder of your unfitness for high office.

@boys_nicholas I was meant to spend a year at the University of Paris, Nanterre on the Erasmus scheme. I felt so utterly disillusioned by the surroundings of the university (and the state of the halls of residence) that I left and went home after two weeks. Depressing was too mild a word!

82 years ago today, nearly 160,000 Allied troops stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day, launching the liberation of Europe.

We are free because they were brave. 🇺🇸

Siobhan's daughter, Rhiannon Whyte, was murdered by an asylum seeker in Walsall. Politicians don't seem that interested in her.

@kierstarmer, Can you please explain to me why you have ignored my emails to talk about my daughter Rhiannons murder,by an ILLEGAL, But now meeting Henry Nowaks family following his tragic death? Both white British people, oh I know your corrupt police assisted his death!

@KirstieMAllsopp For a long time many in power, who should have been saying something, kept absolutely quiet in the hope the case would pass without scrutiny. That much is clear.

It is pointless trying to understand the contemporary British media complex as ‘media’ in the conventional sense—journalism, reporting, or even opinion. The correct frame is propaganda: mood and sentiment management, with its sharpest tool today being crisis communications.

The dominant technique, visible daily if you still watch, is inversion—systematic reversal. It flips reality: victim into perpetrator, aggressor into defender, truth into falsehood, good into evil. It constructs Walter Lippmann’s ‘pseudo-environment’, an alternate reality in which the public is meant to dwell.

A key subtype is projection, or ‘accusation in a mirror’, neatly summarised by a Rwandan Hutu propagandist in a 1990s manual: impute to your enemies exactly what you and your own side are planning or doing.

When a genuine crisis erupts—such as the racially aggravated murder of Henry Nowak—the first imperative of the machine is to stall, dampen, and defeat the natural eruption of public outrage.

Call it ‘restoring calm’ if you like the euphemism. In practice, it means herding people back into anaesthetised normality so that inversion can resume.

Once the majority has been shamed, distracted, or bullied into silence, the remnant still angry can be ridiculed by the usual chorus—eye-rolling panellists on Have I Got News for You, columnists sneering at those ‘harping on’, and accusations of crypto-racism or worse.

Thus, the brutal stabbing of an unarmed 18-year-old student, the false cry of racism by his killer, and the police reportedly handcuffing the dying boy as he bled out on a Southampton street is repackaged as another ‘knife crime’ tragedy (note Shaban Mahmood’s flaccid parliamentary statement this afternoon)—preferably illustrated with a generic white face in the style of the BBC's so-called reality-based drama 'Adolescence' or the more recent but equally putridly manipulative 'The Capture'.

Real patterns (grooming gangs, crime disparities, two-tier policing) are airbrushed. This is projection at work: the actual sources of predation and institutional failure are recast, while legitimate grievance is pathologized.

The truth? The system enabled both the attack and the immediate inversion of its aftermath and that stands exposed to anyone with eyes and functioning brain by the video evidence. That’s the problem, your own 'lying eyes', that crisis communications has to handle before there can be a return to normal levels of public mood management can be restored.

This is precisely what Dan Hodges is performing when he labels people demanding we talk about the murder ‘scum’ for refusing to respect the family’s wish that their son’s death not be politicised. It is phase-one grunt work in the inversion protocol: shame the angry back into silence so the pseudo-environment can be restored.

Smart enough to know his role, malleable enough to perform it willingly—exactly as Noam Chomsky described the filtering process that keeps the right sort of voice prominent in the system.

The technique still works on some. But it is wearing thin. Every overplayed inversion, every *scummy* dismissal of raw public grief, prepares the ground for sharper identities and clearer grievances against the system itself. Normal people do not remain moderate forever when the machine insists their reality is the problem.

Shut up, Starmer.
It’s your “diversity is our strength” nonsense that led police to crack down on white young men like Henry.
Anti-racism and DEI are a cancer in the police force. Ethnic minorities are “victims” and white boys get arrested as they lie dying.
You sicken me.

[Goosey @Goosey30111568]

His name was Henry Nowak.
He was a young man with his whole life ahead of him.

He had been stabbed 5 times.
He lay on the floor dying.
The police handcuffed him and he died under arrested.
He was the victim of a racist murder.
While his murderer cried Racism.

RIP Henry.
