Henry Nowak was 18 years old. A first year accountancy and finance student at the University of Southampton, walking home from a night out with his football team on December 3rd, 2025. On Belmont Road he was met by a 23 year old named Vickrum Digwa, carrying a 21cm ceremonial blade across his chest. Digwa stabbed him four times. One wound went eight centimeters into his lung. Henry climbed over a fence trying to escape. There was already a blood trail on the street behind him. When police arrived, Digwa told them he had been racially abused. Henry told them he had been stabbed. He told them he could not breathe. The officer told Henry he was under arrest on suspicion of assault. Henry repeated that he had been stabbed. A voice on the body cam replied, "I don't think you have, mate." Henry drowned in his own blood on Belmont Road in handcuffs. By the time CPR began his lungs were already full. A doctor flew in by helicopter. There was nothing left to do. The knife was at the killer's mother's house. She had walked it home. Henry's phone, the one he had filmed the whole encounter on, was in Digwa's pocket. All of this came out in Southampton Crown Court last week. The bodycam was played to the jury. This is sworn testimony in a live murder trial. A teenager was killed by a man who then told the police the teenager was the racist. The police arrested the boy who was bleeding out instead of the man who had been carrying the blade. Whatever you believe about institutions, that is what happened on that street. Henry Nowak. Remember the name.

King Charles: I cannot help noticing the readjustments to the East Wing. I'm sorry to say that we British of course made our own small attempt at real estate redevelopment of the White House in 1814.

This is my hearing bundle from the Al Sweady inquiry. It brought an end to my military career after 17 years of exemplary service. The stress, pain, and heartache were overwhelming—driven in large part by Shiner & Hermer. A medal glitters but it also casts a shadow - Churchill

The most dishonest, hypocritical, odious, deceptive, sleaziest, overrated and unfit Prime Minister in my lifetime. Resign.

Remember, whilst Keir Starmer was smearing huge swathes of the public as “far right,” using 24/7 courts and locking people up for quickly deleted posts. He knew about Axel Rudakubana having ricin and an Isis manual. Gaslighting on another level and it won’t be forgotten, ever.

As Wes Streeting is claiming the Chagos deal is not dead, and the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office is continuing to implement the treaty as if it has been ratified, it's time to repost the following. 1982,🏝️Project Chagos begins when Mauritius sets up a select committee to look into the potential vast mineral wealth in the Chagos Archipelago's seabed. 2003, leading international lawyer Sir Ian Brownlie is officially appointed advisor by Mauritius for Chagos. 2009, Brownlie leads a Mauritius delegation in bilateral talks at the Foreign Office in London. 2010, Philippe Sands QC becomes counsel to Mauritius for Chagos after Brownlie dies in a motor accident in Egypt. 2O13, Sands' good friend, Keir Starmer QC, visits Mauritius and discusses the future of the Chagos islands with prime minister Navin Ramgoolam. The meeting ends with the men in agreement. 2015, Ramgoolam is arrested on money-laundering charges. The same year, Starmer is elected to Parliament for first time. 2019, Sands obtains an International Court of Justice ruling (advisory opinion only, and non-binding) that the Chagos islands should be given to Mauritius. Sands uses the ICJ ruling as leverage in the following years in his efforts to persuade the Conservative government to give Chagos to Mauritius. 2020, Starmer becomes Labour Party leader. 2021, Sands receives Mauritius' top honour, The Most Distinguished Order of the Star and Key of the Indian Ocean. 2022, Sands makes an unauthorized entry into the Chagos Archipelago for a flag-raising ceremony. Sands tweets at the time, “It’s morning on Chagos, where the flag of Mauritius flies." 2023, Sands becomes Mauritius citizen, but retains his British and French citizenships. 🟥In November 2023 David Cameron takes over as Foreign Secretary from James Cleverly, and bins a deal saying, it's not in the national interest, as reported in Hansard. 2024, Starmer becomes UK Prime Minister in July, and overlooks his shadow Attorney General, Emily Thornberry, to appoint his old friend and fellow human-rights lawyer Richard Hermer. But he has to break with tradition by giving Hermer a peerage, so he can sit in the House Of Lords, and be part of the government. In the early months of his premiership, Starmer makes the controversial former Downing Street Chief Of Staff for Tony Blair, Jonathan Powel, his special envoy for Chagos. In early October 2024, just ten weeks after becoming PM, Keir Starmer agrees a deal with Mauritius, despite there having been no mention of Chagos during the election campaign, and the pledge in Labour's manifesto to protect the BOT. Also in October 2024, Powell tells Times Radio in an interview, “These are very tiny islands in the middle of the Indian Ocean where no one actually goes. So I don’t think we should be too worried about losing that bit of territory. We’re probably losing more to tidal erosion in the East Coast than that.” Powell fails to mention the territorial waters and marine protection zone of 64,000 square miles, and Mauritius getting full ownership of all the mineral rights for an area about the size of France In November 2024, Starmer appoints Powell as his National Security Advisor. In December 2024, Starmer makes yet another extremely controversial appointment in Peter "friend of Epstein" Mandelson as his US Ambassador. Powell and Mandelson brief the White House over Chagos, and claim the UK has to give the archipelago to Mauritius because of international law. However, they assure the Americans that their military base on Diego Garcia is unaffected, as the UK has arranged a 99-year lease on the island. Those assurances have now been proven to be worthless. 2025, In January Lord Hermer recuses himself from signing off on the Chagos deal. The AG's office refuse to give details of why. In late February 2025, Mauritius’ former Prime Minister, Pravind Jugnauth, who was in office when Starmer became PM, and was heavily involved in discussions about the Chagos deal before being replaced by Navin Ramgoolam in November, was arrested on money laundering charges after Mauritius' anti-corruption agency said it had seized suitcases of cash and luxury watches in raids on 10 locations, including Jugnauth’s home. In August 2025, Starmer is referred to the statistics' watchdog for misleading claims over the cost of the Chagos deal. Many other claims are made during the year that Starmer had repeatedly "lied" about the true costs of the deal. There are even accusations that Starmer ordered his officials to announce misleadingly low figures.

This is why Sadiq Khan wants to censor online posts about crime in London. He’s lying. The truth: “Since you became Mayor in 2016: Knife crime ⬆️ 27% Violence against the person ⬆️ 26% Robbery ⬆️ 57% Theft ⬆️ 37% Shoplifting ⬆️ 109% Sexual offences ⬆️ 64% All crime ⬆️ 26%.”

We have this Green party leader dancing around like a demented numpty and Lib Dem leader Ed Davey mounting one stupid stunt after another. Polls currently give them around 35% of the vote combined. No wonder we are increasingly regarded as not a serious country. Because we’re not.

I’m absolutely consistent. I’m against Muslims praying in Trafalgar Square, and I’m against whatever the f*** this is.

Keir Starmer says he "beat himself up" for appointing Peter Mandelson. He adds that he made a mistake. Boris made a mistake by holding a piece of cake in Tupperware, in his workplace on his birthday but you still called for him to resign. You’re finished. Just go.

5 years ago today, hundreds of Islamists gathered outside Batley Grammar School after a teacher showed a picture of the Prophet Muhammad in a lesson. He was threatened & forced into hiding. 5 years on he is sadly STILL in hiding. This is appalling. We must fight for free speech.

Five years ago today, a teacher from Batley Grammar showed a class a caricature of the Prophet Mohammed. Within days, a hundred Islamists were protesting outside the school gates. Outrageously, the teacher was suspended. The headteacher, Gary Kibble, apologised ‘unequivocally’. It was an astonishing act of appeasement and cowardice. The teacher was then subjected to a campaign of abuse and intimidation, including incitement to violence against him and his family. His kids had to miss school for months. They slept on mattresses in temporary accommodation. An independent probe later cleared him of any wrongdoing whatsoever. Another report likewise found that the school, council and police all ‘totally and utterly failed’ him. Too late - his life was changed forever. Have lessons been learnt from this shameful episode? I fear exactly the same thing would happen today. In fact ‘advice’ has recently been reissued by Labour councils including the one covering Batley, that children’s drawings in art lessons may be seen as ‘idolatrous’ under sharia law. Teachers are even warned that dance lessons could cause parental concerns over ‘physical contact between males and females’. Extremism is being mainstreamed. A climate of threatening and intimidatory harassment is poisoning our institutions. It's antithetical to our democratic way of life. Most of our governing class are simply too spineless to take on Islamists. Look at when I highlighted the chronic failure of integration in parts of Birmingham. I was denounced. And then proven right by West Midlands Police’s admission that violent Islamists living couldn’t be prevented from attacking Jewish football fans. The Police lied and blamed the visiting supporters in an effort to pretend they still had authority in the city. And now look at the reaction of the Prime Minister and much of the media to criticisms of a segregated Iftar in Trafalgar Square. They branded critics racist too. This was despite the Prime Minister himself pulling out of an Iftar in 2021 organised by the very same man, Omar Salha, who arranged this one, apparently because of his Islamist links. We’ve been led by weak hypocrites, who cover up, rather than confront what’s happening. The country is sliding down a dark path as a result. But innocent men and women like the Batley teacher are the greatest victims of extremism, and too many seem intent to forget them. We must defend them and stand up for all those who speak out.

Britain has paid Norway over £100 billion for gas since 2021. For gas they’re drilling in the North Sea, the same sea Ed Miliband has banned new drilling in on the British side. Madness.

The Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper, condemns ‘reckless’ Iranian strikes on Diego Garcia. Her response: 'We continue not to be involved in offensive action.' She admits that we are under attack but won’t do anything in response. So spineless. We need a general election!
