I was removed as a police recruit selector, despite doing that job for 5 years because I had the audacity to suggest police should be selecting the best candidate irrispective of colour, race gender or creed. The Positive Action team insisted that only non whites were to be supported.

Repost and Raise your hand if you believe Two Tier Policing exists in Britain. 🇬🇧🙋‍♂️

[RG 🇬🇧 @RecteFideliter]

In 2016, while serving in the Army, I was told that if my SJAR was to stand any chance of making the promotion board, my first and primary ‘personal’ objective had to be a directed DEI compliancy statement.

Funnily enough, I never promoted again and left a few years later.

So yes, I can empathise with every police officer who finds themselves pressured into silent compliance. I understand mortgages, families, careers and pensions.

However, there comes a point where a pension isn’t worth selling your morals for… Especially when HMRC takes such a healthy slice of it anyway.

[Tony @EvacTony]

You won't find any serving cops who'll admit to #TwoTierPolicing because they're all too afraid to, but in private they'll agree. Unless they're a minority officer who benefits from it within the job via DEI, or an officer whos climbing the ladder and playing the game.

I served 8 years before I felt I could go along with it no more, #TwoTierPolicing comes from within, they learn to treat their own differently depending and obviously that carries through to how they deal with the public.

They're all queueing up today to tell you I'm wrong about this, but the same people like #KeirStarmer have been telling you for years that the #PakistaniR@peGangs, the biggest example of #TwoTierPolicing in history isn't a thing either.

RIP #HenryNowak

As a former policeman I am appalled at Southampton police whose first reaction upon encountering Henry Nowak was to handcuff him.
He was clearly incapacitated.
Do police instinctively handcuff people?
Where are your critical thinking skills?
Where is your humanity?

[RG 🇬🇧 @RecteFideliter]

It shouldn’t have taken an officer to notice his retinas were fixed for the penny to drop though. CABC is the basic foundations of casualty first response. Catastrophic bleed being the first and immediate step. Don’t expect paramedic science, but I would expect any police officer to know basic emergency first aid.

[Justice For Henry Nowak @HenryNowakSol_]

This is the home of Justice for Henry Nowak — a community-led project keeping the name of an 18-year-old British student in the public conversation while every institution that should have spoken for him has stayed quiet.

Henry was murdered on 3 December 2025. Stabbed five times on a Southampton street. Handcuffed by Hampshire Police as he bled, telling them he had been stabbed, while they believed his killer. He died saying “I can’t breathe.” His killer has now been convicted of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. The IOPC is investigating the police response.

This account exists for one purpose: to make sure that story does not fade.

It tracks every development in the case — the trial, the verdict, the sentencing, the bodycam release, the 999 call, the IOPC investigation, the political response, the institutional silence, and everything still to come.

It channels the community that gathered around Henry’s name into something real: over $101,000 directed through https://t.co/wsgOJxeNMh to 2Wish, the official UK charity supporting his family. 100% of creator rewards. On-chain. Verifiable. Receipts over rhetoric.

It demands what Henry’s family deserves: the release of the full bodycam footage, the naming of the officers involved, transparency from the IOPC, and the institutional reform that ensures the next teenager bleeding on a pavement is believed.

It refuses to belong to any political faction. The fight for Henry is not a left fight or a right fight. It is a human one. This account stays focused on the case, the family, and the accountability — not on the noise around it.

It will not stop until every question raised by Henry’s death has been answered. And it will keep saying his name until the country that allowed him to be forgotten remembers.

Henry — forever 18. 🤍

While I agree that not all police officers should be tarred with the same brush, Rob, in this instance the failings are evident and should rightly be called out – if only to learn from them.

My criticism is that, regardless of what information officers were given before arriving, their professional standards require them to continuously assess the situation in front of them.

What stands out to me is the apparent absence of command and control at the operational level. No officer appears to assert ownership of the scene, reassess the information available, or direct a coordinated response based on the circumstances they encountered.

Within 67 seconds of arriving, they’ve heard him say he’s been stabbed and can’t breathe. They’re told he’s had to be physically supported. He appears incapable of fleeing. Yet the initial narrative seems to remain unchallenged.

Good policing, like soldiering, requires leadership, professional curiosity and dynamic risk assessment. Officers should be asking themselves whether what they’re seeing matches what they were told. In this case, it appears that nobody did.

Easy for me to sit here and critique with the benefit of hindsight I know. However, based on the footage released so far, I struggle to see how any independent review could avoid examining those questions.

[Tom Foster SDP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧 Afuera! @tompfoster]

I don't think enough emphasis is being put on the fact that neighbours called 999 to report shouting and a possible stabbing before the Digwa brother called the police. Between the snapchat video (which was just before the stabbing occurred) and the body cam footage of the police nearly an hour had passed.
The neighbours heard someone shouting that they had been stabbed and called 999.

If Henry was shouting then he was still well enough to be saved. So where were the police for nearly an hour? Why wasn't an ambulance arranged when the initial 999 call was made? And why when they eventually bother to show up did nobody know that a stabbing had been reported earlier? And then to top it all off they cuff the victim like a violent criminal and oversee his painful death with callous indifference?

So much is not adding up but everything points to failures by the police at every possible level.

[RG 🇬🇧 @RecteFideliter]

The persistent denial of 2 tier policing (despite it being published in NPCC doctrine) and lack of public statements or two page letters like the one below doesn’t actual surprise me one bit.

The last time the words “I can’t breathe” dominated the headlines, they were spoken in a country led by a President many on the political left despised. Some were quick to insist that tragedy should never be politicised, while others like Shabana here appeared perfectly comfortable doing exactly that.

Just try to see the bigger picture and don’t be drawn into violence. What happened in Southampton tonight has only played into their hands and undermined the momentum that was building to remove these people from office and begin restoring our nation.

Many constituents have been in touch with me regarding protests across the United States after the murder of George Floyd. I share their anger at this unspeakable outrage. You can read my letter to constituents here. #BlackLivesMatter

[Tony @EvacTony]

As a White man in Britain in 2026 with Beautiful Son called Henry whos 18 and Beautiful Daughter whose a bit older, as well as being scared for my children, I feel under attack as I see no end to the invasion of our Island or the violence on our streets.

I also feel abandoned, abandoned by a Government that hates me, a working British man, and a police organisation (something I was once proud to be part of) that has trained its officers to treat me and my family differently and less favourably if something bad happens based on the colour of their skin.

God I'm angry, angry and let down.

You in Government can't expect to keep pumping out platitudes time after time and expect no reaction.

Having said that, don't give this Government what they want stay peaceful #Southampton.

[RG 🇬🇧 @RecteFideliter]

Agree Mike. I’m not so naive as to think my post will cause the slightest ripple in Westminster. It was simply a thought that crossed my mind at 00:20 this morning while my brain was processing the anger at what I’d just watched.

The comparison struck me because, in my experience, the standard expected of British soldiers was and is clear: if someone in your custody is injured or in medical distress, their welfare came first. That’s why the footage is so difficult to watch.

[Rab @Rab_Dickson1]

Just one more point on the Nowak police officers.
As a first responder/firefighter I was trained to examine a potential casualty who was drowsy or non-responsive by checking the whole body, front and back, for wounds...even under clothing.
Are police officers not trained anymore?

[Joe Rich @joerichlaw]

Hi @Grok - friend of mine who is a former police officer has set out what she considers to be the 10 most serious breaches of PACE in Henry Nowak’s case below. Can you set out what you consider to be your 10 most serious breaches in a similar way and explain each one, please?

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

Britain had a moment of silence for George Floyd. Our politicians kneeled en masse to show their outrage at his killing. "I can't breathe" became a slogan.

George Floyd died on the other side of the world. He wasn't British.

Henry Nowak *was* British and his treatment by the police was shocking and negligent in the extreme. Yet there is no minute of silence. There is no coordinated public campaign. There is no kneeling at sporting events.

And we all know why.

During the summer of BLM, some people said "All Lives Matter". This was treated as the highest form of racism and anyone who said this was immediately cancelled. Why? Because the people in charge don't actually think all lives matter in the same way.

They have created a racial hierarchy of victimhood where a career criminal who died through mistreatment by police in a foreign country with 0 evidence of racism like George Floyd is automatically sanctified because of the colour of his skin.

And Henry Nowak, a British man, one of ours, is automatically dismissed and ignored because of the colour of his.

This is the ugly fruit of so-called "anti-racism", an obsession with race that has created a two-tier society which treats people differently because of the colour of their skin.

This needs to stop.

[John Edwards @John_EdwardsUK]

25 years of progressive woke conditioning has culminated in police officers arresting a terrified, dying white boy because they considered that less risky than being accused of racism.

This must be a turning point for our country.

RIP Henry.

Henry Nowak's death is more horrific than you think:

>Henry was stabbed ~11:30 pm, Henry was not pronounced dead until 67 minutes later (12:37 am). It gets worse...

> During this time. Dagwa & his brother (who arrived shortly after the attack, it was his brother who phoned 999, not to phone an ambulance, he phoned police alleging Henry attacked them.

>It's been reported that there was some deliberation/ delay before phoning 999. Alleging Henry drunkenly attacked them (Henry was sober; blood alcohol below the drink-drive limit). Digwa's brother wanted to punish Henry.

>Exact quotes from the call (read out in court at Southampton Crown Court):
“We’ve just got attacked racially by some white person. He’s physically attacked my brother, we’re Sikhs, we wear a turban and he’s just attacked my brother. We’re restraining him right now because he’s just attacked my brother and took my brother’s turban off. He also said, he’s verbally attacked my brother racially. I’m not having this as a regular occurrence, I live here, I’m not having this a regular occurrence. He ain’t fighting people, he’s racially attacking people, that’s what he’s doing. Nah, he sees some brown people, that’s what it was.”

> were restraining Henry until the police arrived (Digwa stole Henry's phone so he couldn't get help).

>When the police arrived, Digwa's father was holding Henry against a wall (his father said: "He keeps dropping down, so I am just trying to keep him up". There was also a visible blood trail, but it is unknown when officers first noticed it (different sources described it when the police entered the scene, another was after Henry passed out).

>His mother removed the murder weapon from the scene.

>Police bodycam footage was played in court (audio only, no video; another source said a transcript was read):
Henry says “I am dying”;
Digwa replies “You’re not dying bro.”
{Approximately 10 minutes later}: Henry says “You stabbed me”;
Digwa denies it and accuses Nowak of recording him.
Henry's final recorded words: “Please brother, I can’t breathe.”
{He passed out a few minutes later}

>Before the attack, Henry was recording a video of Digwa on his phone, it is a weird exchange: Henry singing/yawning, then addressing Digwa: “Innit bad man, what bad man. You’re a bad man, say you’re a bad man, go on.” Digwa replied: “I am a bad man.” The footage ended shortly before the stabbing.

Some critical details that haven't been released:
>The time the 999 call was made.
>The full 999 transcript.
>The time the police arrived.
>The time an ambulance was called (an air ambulance >flew in a doctor).

I question the order of the stabbing:
>There's a lack of defensive wounds on Henry's arms and hands (Henry was sober).
>I believe Henry was stabbed in the groin and the back if the legs while he was trying to scale a fence to get away (you can't easily get to a man's groin area, there's a reason they're nicknamed the 'crown jewels'). Also, stab wounds to that area can be catastrophic; The aorta and arteries to the legs (the largest in the body) flow through there, not to mention the nerve endings. The way they pinned Henry against a wall, where he would be losing blood faster.

>Given what I have read so far, I don't understand why there haven't been charges against the brother & father. They were aware that Henry had been stabbed, but they continued to forcefully detain him (the very definition of false imprisonment). I'd argue it was sadistic torture. You can make the excuse of a single Sekh having mental health issues (they will), but that doesn't excuse the actions of Digwa's brother, mother & father.

🚨BREAKING: The Judge in Henry Nowak's case has said he is "sure that Henry never said anything racist"

The allegation was fabricated.

The media who presented it as fact should apologise to Henry's family.
