watch from 24:37-25:21, that is exactly the response that anyone seeking to stoke division off this story deserves. and if you can stomach frogface afterwards, Starmer deals with him decently

Having watched the footage of the Novak case as BBC Verify presented it, it's quite clearly overworked police, used to treating suspects poorly, coming up against a perpetrator and accomplices who were willing to pose as victims and deceive law enforcement. Therefore the police were briefly confused, as J00ps says. Very little to do with race in any wider sense.

It's certainly not police brutality in the way Badenoch is on record with comparing this to the Floyd protests (though she was pleasingly respectful at PMQs), there might be something to be said or done about police apathy, but they often, naturally, interact with groups of people not known for their respect of the law.

This case is clearly awful, and the police made a serious mistake. However, to suggest that this proves that the whole police culture is somehow anti-white is utterly ridiculous. The issue here is simply that the police officers involved failed to recognise that the victim was in severe distress.

Farage's response is, predictably, that of a rabble-rouser. He doesn't care about facts. He just cares about whether he can get a certain type of person to vote for him.

Thanks to dum-dum Nigel and dum-dum Tommy, England could escalate into riots worse than the 2011 riots when Mark Duggan was shot
