We have been in an abusive relationship with our government for 14 years. It’s time to breathe #WeGotTheToriesOut #CovidIsACrimeScene #TheyNeedToGoToJail

@campbellclaret Bang on.

[HUMAN WA$TE @Dplanet]

🚨🇬🇧 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.

@Nigel_Farage @BBCNewsnight You pathetic little man. Now apologise to the family for doing what they asked you NOT to do. You politicised their dear son's death. You are abhorrent. #fivemillionfarage #scum #farageriots #farageunfitforoffice

[Capman #FBPE @Euro_toff]

A teenager gets murdered, you come out of hiding and ignore the family's wishes, call for your supporters to react with pure cold rage, they respond by violently damaging property and attacking police, injuring at least 11 of them, and you want @BBCNewsnight to be all about you
Vile poisonous turd

[Roger Gall @Shambles151]

Nigel Farage - the leader of Reform UK - is under investigation for failing to declare a £5 million 'gift'.

Please RT this until the BBC gives this story the same level of blanket coverage - as it would for the leader of any other UK political Party.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@wesstreeting This is ridiculous. The Labour party, including you at Health, have achieved a lot but you have gone after personal advancement. I think there’s every chance that Starmer will still be PM by Christmas and you and Burnham have blown your chances. So many angry Labour voters.

[WAFL Dread 2 @TVFox1986]

Poll: Your preference for Labour leader/PM... Pls repost afterwards for better outlook... #Leadership #Labour #FridayFeeling

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@AndyBurnhamGM Do you have any idea what you and Streeting have done? Egos out of control, believing your own bubbles and the rabid right wing media just looking for blood. We don’t want this.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@wesstreeting @jamesmurray_ldn What the f*ck are you playing at? Labour voters don’t want this.

[Erdmute Wendlinger @wendlingere49]

I hope the BrItish media takes a long hard look at the chaos they have happily helped to cause.
I've lived a long life & never before seen such a disgraceful attack on a legitimate Government & even worse the whipped up hatred of a PM.

[Nerine Halton @NerineHalton]

You know what really boils my piss ? Burnham dumps Manchester , creating a hugely undesirable mayoral election which Labour won’t necessarily win. Then he swans into Downing Street after Starmer’s done all the heavy lifting. 3rd rate behaviour. Enraged here. 😡

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@LucyTCWife This is complete bullsh*t. You, on the other hand, incited rioters to burn a hotel to the ground that had women and children inside and you rightly went to prison for your crime.

[Marina Purkiss @MarinaPurkiss]

Angela Rayner was dragged through every front page for weeks...

HMRC's verdict: NOT deliberate. NOT even careless.

Farage pockets £5 million and chooses not to declare it

So where's the wall-to-wall coverage?

Tell me this isn't a rigged game.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@Arron_banks Funny. I tried to reply to you with detail about why Farage deserves everything that’s coming to him and Twitter wouldn’t let me send it. I wonder why?

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@Arron_banks Farage legitimised racism in this country and has been one of the significant paid figureheads for the populist movement that delivered Brexit and the destabilising of democracy in the western world. He deserves everything and more that’s coming to him.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@Nigel_Farage You’re just scum. Corrupt, evil scum.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@TVKev Oh do f*ck off.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

@sophielouisecc @BorisTrump6 This is the only thing you’ve ever said that I’ve agreed with.

[Julie Street 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 @Juliest101]

The only people who need to resign today are the political journalists and editors at @BBCNews and @SkyNews

I've never seen such a downright sinister plot to remove a democratically elected sitting PM.

Our media is absolutely fucking toxic.

[Me #FBPE @vlee10]

This is beginning to feel like a coup, led by the media.

[Joshua Silver @eyejosh]

Please repost if you agree that it would be extremely unwise for Labour to remove Keir Starmer right now
