Reform UK LIVE: Farage slams “two-tier culture” in emergency statement | Politics | News
Nigel Farage said Henry Nowak was “treated in a way that essentially meant that the charge of racial slurs was to be taken more seriously than an act of murder”.
The Reform UK leader said: “What does he say? I can’t breathe.”
“Familiar words. Remember George Floyd, the career criminal who died under horrific circumstances in the American Midwest a few years ago.
“Do you remember the reaction to this and how the police acted? Within days Keir Starmer took the knee. Black Lives Matter exploded across the country. Churchill’s statue was defaced, the cenotaph was vandalised.
“So what was the reaction of our leaders and politicians, and frankly most of the media, to this?
“Silence, absolute silence. Proof (if ever there was one) that we live in a two-tiered culture in this country, where the rights and privileges of white people are less important than the rights and privileges of ethnic minorities.”
Public comment on the case has been limited to avoid damaging the ongoing trial and the case that led to the conviction of Vickrum Digwa for Mr. Nowak’s murder.
