This statement from the father of Henry Nowak, Mark Nowak is as heartbreaking as it is damning. Placed a lump in my throat.
"Instead of being treated as a dying victim, police formally arrested Henry for assault and read him his rights. That was the last thing he heard," Mark says.
He adds: "Let us be clear. We hold Vickrum Digwa solely responsible for the brutal murder of our son.
"But Henry should not have died on the streets of Southampton in police custody. The way he was was inhumane and degrading.
"His murderer, however, was afforded decency. He was believed. He was not handcuffed.... the contrast is unbearable."
Last year's Unite the Kingdom rally = 23 arrests
Notting Hill carnival = 443 arrests
Palestinian marches = >500 arrests.
I'm not making a point about race. I'm looking at the facts about the threat level.
This is @Keir_Starmer trying to hate-bait you into violence. RISE ABOVE his attempts to divide the country.
Wave your flags. Drink your flasks of tea. Hug strangers - just like last year.
And celebrate our history, our shared culture and our potentially great nation.
