@MattWalshBlog I worked with adults who had Down’s syndrome before I had my children. They were the most beautiful souls. Full of character and a little bit of adorable mischief! I miss them all dearly, they taught me so much about life. They really are a gift 🥰❤️
You cannot claim that you’re aborting your Down syndrome child because you don’t want him to “suffer.” First of all, killing a child so they don’t suffer is psychopath serial killer logic. You’re on the same moral plane as Andrea Yates. Second, children with Down syndrome are famously some of the happiest people you’ll ever meet in your life. They are not in fact living in a state of perpetual torment. So what’s really happening is that you’re killing your child so that YOU won’t suffer the inconvenience of caring for him. This is about freeing yourself of your own perceived suffering. If you’re going to be a child killing sociopath, at least be honest about it.
Around 4 or 5 years ago the Met came up with a scheme whereby new recruits (who were of a black or minority ethnic background) would be afforded guidance and on-tap assistance throughout their 2 year probation.
There would be a tutor assigned throughout that period to guide them through challenges, issues or concerns. Issues that many or all probationers come access throughout their probation at some stage.
Sadly, if you were white you were on your own and wasn't afforded that extra assistance or guidance.
I was working at Edmonton police station in North London and I challenged this on an internal platform.
Within a few hours I received a personal email from a Chief Inspector and Superintendent, both of whom suggested I refrain from any negative views on this project.
The Superintendent (who still serves today but now in another force) made veiled threats that if I didn't remove the communication or change my view that matters 'could go further'.
Many people today wonder why things aren't challenged in the job, particularly around race related issues.
The problem remains that if you dare to challenge these things, you are either bullied into submission or punished.
Thankfully, I was in my final few months of the job & really didn't care anymore. If I was staying, I would have had to toe the party line and remain silent.
Many officers hate these schemes, but are too afraid to speak out & instead just accept that things are the way they are.
Race plans aren't only external projects within the job, they very much control things internally too.
I’m getting sick and tired of Keir Starmer and other left-wing politicians cherry-picking one segment of the Nowak family’s statement about not wanting this to cause further division in an attempt to silence political opponents through guilt.
That isn’t all the Nowak family said.
They also said that Henry was treated differently by the police to Vickrum Digwa. They also said they wanted the Kirpan banned along with all other knives.
Starmer has respected neither of those wishes. He has denied that two-tier policing exists and refused to support banning the Kirpan.
So please don’t start lecturing other politicians about respecting the family’s wishes when you are not doing so yourself.
I am a medical doctor and I can say clearly: this is not good enough.
Henry Nowak was murdered and the police let him die.
When someone tells you they've been stabbed and are struggling to breathe, unless they pose an obvious risk to your own life, you make sure they are OK before you do anything else.
You don't pause to think about whether they might be racist, or whether they could be making it up.
There must be justice for Henry.
Peel's Founding Philosophy Has Guided British Policing For Two Centuries. We Have Spent Fifty Years Dismantling It.
In 1829 Sir Robert Peel established the Metropolitan Police on a founding philosophy that has guided British policing for nearly two centuries. That philosophy was later codified into nine principles known as the Peelian Principles and is still taught to every new recruit today. Those principles contain everything British policing needs to know about what went wrong on a Southampton street on December 4th 2025.
Principle two. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent on public approval of their existence, actions and behaviour and on their ability to secure and maintain public respect.
Principle five. The police seek and preserve public favour not by catering to public opinion but by constantly demonstrating absolute impartial service to the law.
Absolute impartial service to the law. Not racial equity. Not colour awareness. Not white privilege training. Not disproportionality monitoring. Not community sensitivity. Absolute impartial service to the law. Every person. Every community. Every accusation. The same standard. Without exception.
Principle seven. The police are the public and the public are the police. Not the police are the ethnic minority communities and the ethnic minority communities are the police. The public. All of them. Equally.
Principle nine. The test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder, not the visible evidence of police action in dealing with it. Not the reduction of disproportionality in stop and search. Not the diversity of the workforce. Not the number of officers completing unconscious bias training. The absence of crime and disorder. That is the test.
Now place those principles alongside the documents governing Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary on the night Henry Nowak died.
The Hampshire Race Action Plan commits to pursuing offenders who cause harm to ethnic minority communities specifically. Not all communities. Ethnic minority communities specifically. The NPCC guidance tells officers that a commitment to racial equity does not mean treating everyone the same or being colour blind. The Metropolitan Police race action plan informs officers that neutrality is a myth and that their whiteness prevents impartiality. The Hampshire Inclusion Matters diversity course made nearly twenty percent of officers afraid they would be rejected for saying the wrong thing. The University of Reading noted that officers who did not respond well to the training may benefit from further intervention, monitoring or coaching.
Peel said absolute impartial service to the law. The Metropolitan Police said neutrality is a myth. Peel said the police are the public. The NPCC said the police cannot be colour blind. Peel said the test of police efficiency is the absence of crime and disorder. The College of Policing said the test is reducing disproportionality in the use of police powers against ethnic minorities.
These are not compatible frameworks. They are opposing philosophies. One treats every citizen as equal before the law. The other treats citizens differently according to their ethnicity and the accusations they make. One produced two centuries of policing by consent. The other produced the officers who handcuffed Henry Nowak.
Alexis Boon, the chief constable of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary, described the national outcry as a furore that had been whipped up. He does not accept the term two tier policing.
Principle two. The ability of the police to perform their duties is dependent on public approval of their existence, actions and behaviour and on their ability to secure and maintain public respect.
The public approval is gone. The respect has been lost. The chief constable who cannot see why has not read the principles he was taught on his first day.
The answer has been there since 1829. What changed was the decision to abandon it.
I do not want to see patriots thrown in prison because they've had a beer or two, got fired up and acted stupid in the heat of the moment.
The state will make an example of you - they will show no mercy. Your life will be ruined.
Do not attack the police. Be smart. Stay calm.
🚨STARMER’S BLATANT HYPOCRISY EXPOSED! 🤔
Perfect example of Two-Tier Keir.
Video 1 (2020): Starmer viciously attacks Trump for his response to the rioters after George Floyd’s death, calling it an “affront to humanity” and defending the unrest as “peaceful protests” by people “rightly demanding justice”.
“Like you, I was shocked and angered by the killing of George Floyd. And the response of President Trump and US authorities to the peaceful protests, to people rightly demanding justice, has been an affront to humanity.”
Video 2 (Today): Starmer condemns the “disgraceful” rioters in the wake of Henry Nowak’s tragic murder and his shocking treatment by police.
“No matter the pain we feel, there is no justification for violence and disorder. Let me be clear, we will ensure anyone found engaging in disorder meets the full force of the law.”
Why the blatant double standard, Keir?
Either rioting is bad or it isn’t?
You’re “shocked and angered” and label Trump’s crackdown an “affront to humanity”… but now you’re cracking down hard when people “demand justice” after Henry Nowak.
Are you the “affront to humanity” for condemning these rioters?
Two-Tier Keir exposed for the world to see.
Imagine you are a dental hygienist and live in Sweden..
You are employed to help “migrant children” with their dental issues.
As part of your job you examine the wisdom teeth development of the kids and you notice that 80% of those “kids” have fully formed wisdom teeth, implying they are not kids at all but adults older than the age of 18.
You tell the Swedish Migration Agency and they advise you to put it in writing.
When you send exact details, with examples of specific patients you are suspended, investigated and fired for disclosing private information relating to patients.
This happened to Bernt Herlitz in 2017.
When he appealed the unfair dismissal he ultimately lost and was fined about $50,000.
He and his family faced financial hardship and almost lost their home, until some generous benefactors raised money for him. Bernt remains unemployed today, despite staff shortages for dentists in his area in Gotland.
At the time, Sweden scoffed at the tests and claimed they were “discriminatory” but since then they have quietly brought in mass dental testing, for those whose age is in doubt, by the National Board of Forensic Medicine.
Bernt deserves a medal. Not vilification and unemployment.
Several serving and former Hampshire Police Officers have told me that ‘we had it drummed into us about our white privilege and unconscious bias’.
Training was outsourced to a third party company and the trainer ‘was deeply hateful of white people and our culture.’
Officers have reported to me about being furious but unable to complain out of fear for their jobs.
This is exactly why I blocked the Race Action Plan as Home Secretary.
It is disgraceful that this stuff went on in policing. And the PCC and CC need to be held to account.
As if I wasn't already entirely pissed off with the police already, I had the most insane interaction with 2 bully-boy coppers this morning.
I dropped home an elderly little old lady, who was taking some time gathering her things and trying to get out of the car. I was on double yellows, but had my hazards on - as I am allowed to do as per the council rules. When a police car came up behind me, and then drove around me to be window level, to tell me that, despite clearly being able to pass me, as he literally was, I was illegally parked and causing an obstruction, and I needed to park on the kerb.
I told him I wasn't parked a) at all, as I was offloading an elderly lady and b) wasn'tstopped illegaly, and I wouldn't be moving on to the kerb because that *would* be illegal as I would then be obstructing the pathway, whereas, I was legally allowed to drop of and pick up, on double yellows. He told me he would arrest me. I told him to try it. He then drove off - proving I wasn't obstructing traffic.
I finished helping the old lady and drove off.
The officers were waiting for me around the corner, put on their lights, pulled me over and demanded to see my licence and insurance before lecturing me about my attitude and demanded I show them some respect.
They could have waited patiently like most people do, or they could have gone around me as they eventually did. Instead they threatened to arrest me for laws I wasn't breaking, simply because they didn't know the law, and then tried to intimidate me afterwards because they realised they were totally wrong about the law, and we're too immature to apologise. They were fully prepared to try and make me loose my job and my lifelong out of nothing but pure spite, ego and vengeance because they made themselves look stupid.
None of that had to happen. Luckily I filmed the entire thing. Utterly disgusting behaviour. This inherent arrogance in the police has to stop.
Dear Crime Minister,
As a bereaved mother, having needlessly lost her son to NHS negligence. Of whom then embarked on a massive cover up.
I can tell you categorically, the last platitude I wanted to hear from them, the police, the GMC, the NMC or the CPS was “lessons will be learned”
The two phrases that made me want to jump across the table and take their faces off were:
“Lessons will be learned” and
“We can’t bring him back”
It’s callous and infuriating and I will never forgive them.
How can lessons be learned if you don’t accept there is a problem to begin with?
@Keir_Starmer
@Keir_Starmer Mr Nowak made it clear that his son was not treated with the kindness extended to the murderer. He did not say "whatever you do don't ask questions about 2 tier policing". You are, without doubt, the most shameless person to be PM, and that is saying something.
In our loud, frantic world, it makes my heart a little bit lighter to know that there is a quieter, calmer life to be found in the Peak District. Here you’ll still find sleepy villages surrounded by rolling hills, where the streams trickle over the cobbles past the cottages, just as they have done for centuries.
If you have a copy of my 2026 Peak District Calendar, this is the page that will be bringing a little calm and beauty to your wall for the month of June. My 2027 Calendar is out already and currently available for the Early Bird price of only £8.95 + P&P (sorry, UK only). Here’s the link for more information:

After 20 years in the British Army, I asked the @PoppyLegion for some assistance.
Last year they made £56.6 million from the poppy appeal and the best they could do was to reply with 'Ask Citizens Advice'
And to think I've helped raise money for this lot!!!
