Well done to Max Wilkinson from the Lib Dems (and others) in Parliament today calling out Farage for ignoring the wishes of the family of Henry and using their tragedy to stoke hate and division. Hear also the shouts of 'rubbish' from the Reform benches; shame on them. #ReformUK
Who expects a sudden withdrawal from BBCQT
- Farage has taken legal advice in the last 24hrs agaiunst them
- He is being called out for his 'words'
- He is being challenged on the £5million
- He is under investigation
- Will he seriously expose a naive candidate who has shown he is clueless about Reform policy to a live audience ?
- there will be questions about Kenuon's past
- There could be questions about the Nowak murder or the £5million - Kenyon could say anything
- will he just pretend that they would not get a fair hearing and pull him?
I feel pure cold rage watching this fascist cunt.
He needs locked up for inciting riots.
He really is a horrible piece of shit and no patriot.
Which other countries are paying this traitor £millions to destroy our country? #PMQs#politicslive
🚨This man, police officer Wayne Couzens abducted and murdered Sarah Everhard. Where was the @TRobinsonNewEra protest/vigil outside of West Brompton police station? Where was @Nigel_Farage's pure cold rage? Where were the crowds threatening West Brompton police??? Funny that!!!
Most of these poor twats are going to be arrested.
Farage will be at home drinking expensive wine, counting his money and chuckling to himself.
This is the two-tier society we actually live in.
NEW: Keir Starmer accuses Elon Musk of “trying to whip up division” in UK following murder of Henry Nowak.
Speaking on a visit in Yorkshire, PM says: “We need to assert who we are as a country because Musk again has been interfering in our politics in the last few days, trying to whip up division. That is not who we are in Britain.”
🚨🇬🇧 Tommy Robinson stood outside Southampton police station, in front of an angry crowd, and dragged “Pakistani Muslims” and “race gangs” into the murder of Henry Nowak.
The man convicted of murdering Henry Nowak is Vickrum Digwa. A British Sikh man. He stabbed Henry five times with a 21cm blade and is serving life, with a minimum term of 21 years.
Not Pakistani. Not Muslim. Not a grooming gang. Not a “Pakistani Muslim race gang.”
So why bring “Pakistani Muslims” into it?
Because Robinson wasn’t explaining Henry’s murder. He was recruiting it into the grievance machine he already sells: grooming gangs, “two-tier policing,” white victimhood, and betrayal by the state.
He did not need the killer to be Pakistani or Muslim. He just needed the crowd to feel as if the same enemy was involved.
That's what he does. Take a specific tragedy. Strip out the facts. Replace them with the familiar villain. Then tell a crowd: “This is about race.”
There is a real scandal here. Henry Nowak was handcuffed as he lay stabbed, telling officers he couldn’t breathe, while the man who stabbed him was initially treated as the victim because he lied. That is horrifying. Hampshire Police have apologised. The IOPC is investigating. One officer has resigned. The Attorney General is reviewing the sentence.
Grant all of that. Henry was failed.
But Robinson did what he always does. He took a real failure and built a fake racial mythology on top of it.
He told the crowd white people are treated as “second-rate citizens” by police.
The actual data does not show that. It shows the opposite.
Black people in England and Wales are stopped and searched at nearly four times the white rate - almost five times if officer-observed ethnicity is included.
Black people are arrested at almost twice the white rate.
And in the context that matters most here - people dying after police restraint - INQUEST found Black people are seven times more likely than white people to die following the use of restraint by police.
The report is called I Can’t Breathe.
Robinson heard Henry’s dying words and tried to turn them into proof that white Britain is oppressed. The restraint-death data says the opposite.
Then he pointed the crowd at the killer’s brother, a man who has not been charged over Henry’s murder, told them he had seen him “walking the streets this morning,” and shouted: “Get that family out of Southampton.”
Minutes later, police were being pelted with bricks and bottles.
The Public Order Act 1986 makes it an offence to use threatening, abusive or insulting words intended, or likely, to stir up racial hatred. Whether this speech crosses that line is for the CPS, not me.
But let’s not pretend this is normal politics.
A false racial frame. A volatile crowd. A grieving family pleading for Henry’s death not to be used to create division. An uncharged man’s movements read out in public. A demand to drive a family out of Southampton. Then bricks flying at police.
That is exactly the territory that law was written for.
Henry Nowak was failed by the officers who cuffed him.
Now he is being exploited by a man who dragged the wrong racial enemy into the story because the truth was never the point.
The biggest ever single year rise in working age welfare payments (outside of Covid) was the £9.3B increase you lot oversaw in your final year in office.
The Tories broke the welfare system, stigmatised claimants, left people on the scrap heap and the only attempt they made in those last few years to reform welfare was struck down in a legal challenge.
@UKLabour will take no lessons from the Tories on welfare. We will continue to bring forward proposals to support people into work, guarantee opportunities for young people who are NEET, and provide a genuine safety net for those who need it.
Smashed car windows. Bricks littering the streets. Families left clearing up the mess after a night of chaos in Southampton.
This wasn't done in Henry Nowak's name. Associating this destruction with Henry or his family's memory is an insult.
This was the work of Farage and his mob of thugs who seized the chance to riot while pretending to be the victims.
Like him or loathe him but, on this particular matter, Keir Starmer is 100% correct.
Farage’s response yesterday shows us ‘exactly who he is’… a rage-bating racist with no respect nor conscience.
His followers refuse to see it… which tells you all you need to know about them.
“His response has been to appeal for rage. That’s his response to a father who has lost his son and asked for that not to happen. Exploiting this tragedy to create grievance and division would be wrong in any circumstances but to do it when the family are expressly saying please don’t is unforgivable. It shows exactly who he is”
Keir Starmer responds to Nigel Farage at #PMQs
Reform UK's @RobKenyonReform is stirring up tension in #Makerfield.
He's saying the former St Mary's Church is now a Mosque. IT IS NOT, it's a food bank with a Muslim prayer room.
One that was firebombed.

It wasn't being used, Church of England sold it, and it was being used for good.
Such lies cause hate crimes.
They had their Ten Hag, now they’ll have a coach who is aligned with the recruitment and hierarchy again, they’re still in CL, they have money despite over spending on some questionable players last year. They’ll be much more competitive next season.
