🚨🇬🇧 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.
