🇬🇧 The UK just banned White middle-class men from applying for a paid internship in a taxpayer-funded organization that works for parliament... what the AF is going on in that country?!?

Applications are only open to women of black heritage or from lower socio-economic backgrounds for the position at the National Audit Office.

And it's not the only one being openly racist against White men

If you want an internship at a UK spy agency such as MI5, MI6 and GCHQ, tough luck if you're White.

They are only open to people who are from a Black, Asian, mixed heritage, or ethnic minority background.

How the hell is this legal?

In the UK, the ironically titled "Equality Act" allows them to take "positive action" to "address disadvantage or under-representation."

So, it's ok to be racist and sexist, provided it's directed at White British men.

Regarding the Henry Nowak case…

I’ve attended stabbings as a police officer. The weapons used have been a screwdriver (twice), a chisel, a penknife, and a kitchen knife (twice).

If a person indicates they’ve been injured, you check, and in my experience it’s not difficult to ascertain whether indeed there’s an injury, including possible puncture wounds. If there’s an injury that could possibly threaten life, you apply first aid and get an ambulance moving immediately. This is so regardless of whether the injured person is also a suspected offender.

I can’t help but wonder whether we’re seeing yet another case of police selection, training and leadership letting down the public and officers alike, with tragic consequences.

Remembering Lieutenant Colonel Herbert Jones, VC, OBE 🇬🇧

(14 May 1940, Putney, London– 28 May 1982, Goose Green, Falkland Islands)

Known as H. Jones, he was a British Army officer & posthumous recipient of the Victoria Cross (VC). He was awarded the VC after being killed in action during the Battle of Goose Green for his actions as commanding officer of the 2nd Battalion, Parachute Regiment, during the Falklands War.

Victoria Cross citation;

'On 28th May 1982 Lieutenant Colonel Jones was commanding 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment on operations on the Falkland Islands. The Battalion was ordered to attack enemy positions in & around the settlements of Darwin & Goose Green. During the attack against an enemy who was well dug in with mutually supporting positions sited in depth, the Battalion was held up just South of Darwin by a particularly well-prepared & resilient enemy position of at least eleven trenches on an important ridge. A number of casualties were received. In order to read the battle fully & to ensure that the momentum of his attack was not lost, Colonel Jones took forward his reconnaissance party to the foot of a re-entrant which a section of his Battalion had just secured. Despite persistent, heavy & accurate fire the reconnaissance party gained the top of the re-entrant, at approximately the same height as the enemy positions. From here Colonel Jones encouraged the direction of his Battalion mortar fire, in an effort to neutralise the enemy positions. However, these had been well prepared & continued to pour effective fire onto the Battalion advance, which, by now held up for over an hour & under increasingly heavy artillery fire, was in danger of faltering. In his effort to gain a good viewpoint, Colonel Jones was now at the very front of his Battalion. It was clear to him that desperate measures were needed in order to overcome the enemy position & rekindle the attack, & that unless these measures were taken promptly the Battalion would sustain increasing casualties & the attack perhaps even fail. It was time for personal leadership & action. Colonel Jones immediately seized a sub-machine gun, & , calling on those around him & with total disregard for his own safety, charged the nearest enemy position. This action exposed him to fire from a number of trenches. As he charged up a short slope at the enemy position he was seen to fall & roll backward downhill. He immediately picked himself up, & again charged the enemy trench, firing his sub-machine gun & seemingly oblivious to the intense fire directed at him. He was hit by fire from another trench which he outflanked, & fell dying only a few feet from the enemy he had assaulted. A short time later a company of the Battalion attacked the enemy, who quickly surrendered. The display of courage by Colonel Jones had completely undermined their will to fight further.

Thereafter the momentum of the attack was rapidly regained, Darwin & Goose Green were liberated, & the Battalion released the local inhabitants unharmed & forced the surrender of some 1,200 of the enemy.

The achievements of 2nd Battalion The Parachute Regiment at Darwin & Goose Green set the tone for the subsequent land victory on the Falklands. The British achieved such a moral superiority over the enemy in this first battle that, despite the advantages of numbers & selection of battle-ground, the Argentinian troops never thereafter doubted either the superior fighting qualities of the British troops, nor their own inevitable defeat.

This was an action of the utmost gallantry by a Commanding Officer whose dashing leadership & courage throughout the battle were an inspiration to all about him.'

His Victoria Cross is displayed at the National Army Museum in Chelsea, London.

Sorry isn’t good enough.

We need to see the body-worn footage and these officers need to face consequences.

The treatment of this murdered student, in his dying moments, is a national scandal.

A school teacher called me a “racist c*nt” while I was minding my own business.

So I stopped and asked a few simple questions.

If you’re so convinced I’m wrong, why can’t you answer basic facts?

Watch what happens when emotion collides with reality.

The people screaming “racist” the loudest are often the people who know the least.

🟥 W toku procesu wycieka coraz więcej szczegółów. Zabójca, Vickrum Digwa, zadzwonił na policje, a nie na pogotowie i skłamał, że to Henry go zaatakował, był pijany, obraził go rasistowsko i strącił mu turban.
Policja Hampshire przyjechała (trzy policjantki) i natychmiast zakuli Henry’ego w kajdanki, mimo że leżał w kałuży krwi z ranami kłutymi klatki piersiowej i nóg. Wielokrotnie powtarzał: „I’ve been stabbed” („Zostałem dźgnięty”), „I can’t breathe” („Nie mogę oddychać”). Na nagraniu z kamery osobistej słychać głos policjanta: „I don’t think you have, mate” („Nie sądzę, koleś”).
Policjant, który zakuł Henry’ego w kajdanki, śmiał się, gdy ten powiedział, że został dźgnięty. Potem wleczono go po żwirze i trzymano skutego, gdy się wykrwawiał. Dopiero gdy stracił przytomność, funkcjonariusze zdjęli kajdanki i zaczęli reanimację. Henry zmarł na miejscu.
Ponadto policja zabrała telefon Henry’ego i jego taty i przeczytała wszystkie wiadomości w poszukiwaniu rasistowskich komentarzy lub żartów.
Teraz policja z Hampshire wydała publiczne przeprosiny: „Przepraszamy, że Henry został zakuty i aresztowany w momencie, gdy tracił przytomność. Zostaliśmy okłamani przez sprawcę…” Mimo to ani sad, ani policja nie ujawniły dotąd nagrań z kamer.
Trwa dochodzenie IOPC (niezależny organ ds. skarg na policję). Wielu domaga się dymisji funkcjonariuszy, którzy byli na miejscu. Trzy policjantki podobno odeszły ze służby (niepotwierdzone).

Henry Nowak: “I have been stabbed.”
Police officer: “I don’t think you have, mate.”

Henry, eighteen years old and in his final moments on earth, said he couldn’t breathe.

Let’s get this straight, this officer is now under investigation for pushing away someone who was harassing people at these shops.

But the officer who let someone bleed out just because they thought they said something racist gets off scot-free?

Disgraceful behaviour.

[David Davis MP @DavidDavisMP]

This case strikes me as extraordinary, both for the police behaviour and judge's apparent direction to the jury.

Carrying an 8" knife is illegal with very limited exceptions which do not include "self defence". The Criminal Justice Act makes that plain, and the Sentencing Council says in terms "carrying a knife or other weapon for protection is not a lawful reason. "

The Attorney General should be reviewing both this case and the case of the two teenage rapists ASAP.

I don't know what is happening with our justice system at the moment, and I am not alone in that concern.
