I see that the people who took the knee and tore down statues after a man was killed 4,000 miles away from Britain are now yelping ‘Don’t politicise Henry Nowak’s death’. The same leftists who poured onto the streets to rage over the death of George Floyd are barking at the rest of us not to rage over the death of young Henry.

Got that? Fury over Floyd – good. Rage over Nowak – don’t even think about it

‘Don’t stir up tensions’, says an activist class which in that heady summer of 2020 happily hurled missiles at British cops and danced like Taliban-lite loons on a monument to a slave trader they’d just toppled.

What a festival of cant we have endured since the conviction of Vickrum Digwa for his savage slaying of Nowak. It reached its peak on Tuesday during the eruption of working-class fury at Southampton Police Station. Angry men and women gathered to roar ‘I CAN’T BREATHE’ – Henry’s last words. How crass, said snooty leftists all over social media. But you did the same thing, lads. You marched to the US Embassy in London in May 2020 crying ‘I can’t breathe’, which were Floyd’s last words too.

There’s more than hypocrisy at play here. We are witnessing the drawing of a line between the well-informed, righteous fury of the middle classes and the apparently low-information rage of the lower orders. If you are from leafy London, have a university degree and use phrases like ‘structural racism’, you’re allowed to vent your fury. If you read a tabloid newspaper, have never darkened a university door and say ‘Nigel Farage is the dog’s b*llocks’, you are not. This is a campaign to pathologise working-class

Fear of the masses is in the air. You can almost smell the establishment dread that the wrong sort of people are about to hit the streets – not graduate leftists in keffiyehs but gammon-hued blokes in white t-shirts. The front page of Wednesday’s Independent is a classic of this fretful genre. ‘Family’s plea for calm ignored’, wails the headline over a photo of the protest in Southampton. But the people in the pic are perfectly calm. It’s just rows of mournful folk carrying the England flag. Are you okay, Independent?

The Guardian, too, seems consumed by foreboding. It says there are ‘fears’ that ‘the populist right’ will ‘whip up racist resentment’. Demagoguery is always the chief dread of the bourgeois left, given their view of the little people as a coiled spring of bovine fury that might be unsprung at any minute. The Guardian blasts Farage for calling for ‘pure, cold rage’ in response to Nowak’s death. It’s a complaint that would carry more weight if the Guardian hadn’t published pieces in the wake of Floyd’s death saying ‘We need the rage that abolished slavery’.

So it’s okay to ‘rage’ over the tragic demise of a career criminal a whole ocean away but not over the horrendous death of a sweet kid right here in Britain? The theatrical gasping over Farage’s use of that r-word is absurd. Leftists love a ‘rage against Israel’ or a ‘rage against the Tories’ or, indeed, a ‘rage against the police’. Yet the minute Farage-supporting oiks propose a new ‘rage’ against Southampton’s sloppy cops, the left is dashing for the fainting couch. Their rage is noble, you see, while yours is scary.

The media angst over Farage’s ‘rage’ was superbly exposed by Zia Yusuf in his clash with Cathy Newman on Sky News. She badgered him about Reform’s stirring up of anger over Nowak’s death. But he’d done his homework. He reminded her she once wrote a column on the ‘fury’ of 2020. It’s fab, she wrote, to see ‘the fury over Floyd’s death’ being transported to ‘all four corners of the globe’. Got that? Fury over Floyd – good. Rage over Nowak – don’t even think about it.

Some are putting this down to the fact that Floyd was black, and thus sympathetic, while Nowak was white, and thus ‘privileged’. I think it’s more to do with the different social make-up of those who are ‘raging’. In 2020, it was primarily bourgeois leftists who broke out of lockdown to mourn Floyd. It became mandatory in polite society to join their orgy of performative virtue. ‘Silence is violence!’, they yelled at any sinful mortal who refused to bend the knee in the fashion of the liberal establishment.

Now it’s mostly working-class non-Londoners who are fuming about what was done to poor Henry. Some are even wrapped in the St George’s flag, and nothing is more alarming to our betters than a swarm of patriots. The elitism is rank. It feels as though some people are more unnerved by the growing rumble of working-class anger than they are by what happened to Henry. You can feel the wheels of the discussion turning, away from that horror in Southampton and towards the supposed horror of ordinary people saying: ‘We’ve had enough.’

Yes, there were ugly scenes in Southampton on Tuesday night. A breakaway mob threw bins at police officers. I have no doubt that the decent mourners for Henry gathered at the police station would condemn such behaviour. And you know what? Their condemnation counts for a hell of a lot more than the hypocritical bluster of leftists who whooped when their mates threw bottles at cops after a man died in Minneapolis.

I get the sense that the political and media class badly miss Katie Hopkins. Back when the reality TV star was still a regular on our screens and in our newspapers, she could be relied upon to be the focus of attention whenever the people in charge didn’t want the public’s attention to be focused where it ought to be.

So, when a British soldier was decapitated on the streets of London, or a suicide bomber went off at a pop concert packed with teenage girls, Ms Hopkins could be found saying something that a lot of people were thinking – only in a more colourful or unwise way. A pattern emerged whereby, within 24 hours of any atrocity on the streets of Britain, the political and media class would be talking about how inappropriate Hopkins’s comments were and how forcefully we must all condemn them. Her comments were generally said to be ‘divisive’, ‘hateful’ and ‘have no place in public life’. It was a comfortable place to be, because everyone could then avoid talking about the atrocity itself.

Generations of politicians and pundits have given us a problem that they don’t know how to solve

To some extent, Nigel Farage appears to have filled the deep need for such a figure. After Vickrum Digwa’s conviction for the murder of Henry Nowak – and the release of police bodycam footage showing officers handcuffing the victim as he lay dying – the leader of Reform said we should feel ‘pure, cold rage’. Keir Starmer described Farage’s words as ‘unforgivable’ and declared that this is ‘a time for serious work, not rage’, while the BBC and other media focused their discussion on the question of whether Farage should have spoken at all – and promptly also misrepresented his words.

Perhaps the Prime Minister and others might at some point produce a chart – or Power-Point presentation – explaining the feelings that the public are allowed to hold in response to various atrocities? For instance, under what situation are we allowed to feel ‘mildly irked’? What sort of attack might we be allowed to actually be ‘angry’ about? Is the ‘serious work’ Starmer now calls for something we are allowed to participate in? Or can this Defcon 1 response only be engaged in by the professionals?

Unfortunately the past week has provided another round of such questions. On Monday a Sudanese migrant living in Belfast was caught on camera trying to behead a local man on the city’s streets. It turned out that the perpetrator had crossed into Northern Ireland from the Republic of Ireland and been given refugee status.

Starmer described the attempted beheading as ‘sickening’, while the Chief Constable of the PSNI warned about the challenge of toxic online commentary. ‘All of our communities in Northern Ireland contribute positively to this place,’ Jon Boutcher said, warning people not to be ‘fooled or duped into a trap by people online’.

In the Commons the government had a swift response to a question from the Northern Ireland Unionist MP Jim Allister, who asked what might be done ‘to stop the importation of an alien culture that thinks it’s appropriate to try and behead someone’. The responding minister – Hilary Benn – spied his opening. ‘I’m sorry the honourable gentleman used the term “alien culture”,’ he said. ‘What exactly is he referring to?’ It shouldn’t be that hard to understand.

Historically speaking, Northern Ireland is not a place filled with pacifists. Indeed, it was almost touching that the First Minister Michelle O’Neill responded to the attack by saying that its citizens should not let ‘other people, who don’t care about here, incite hatred or fear’. She went on to say the public should not allow ‘people who are faceless to orchestrate campaigns on the street’. Because in the normal order of things it has been the job of Sinn Fein/the IRA to do just those things.

Still, the appallingness of the crime should not baffle the political class. Why not – finally – use it as a learning moment?

For years there has been a stock response whenever anybody raised the issue of the mainly Pakistani rape gangs. ‘So you’re saying that everybody from that background is a rapist?’ was deflection question no. 1. To which the answer was: ‘Obviously no.’ But then there was a clever little question no. 2: ‘So you think white British men don’t abuse children?’ To which the answer was obviously once again ‘no’. The questions were insincere because the real answer – as with the Belfast attack – is so obvious. We have our own rapists, but why exactly do we need to import more? It is a version of the question Germany might have done well to address in the past couple of decades: ‘Given our historical problem with anti-Semitism, ought we to import a large and fresh batch of anti-Semites?’

The term ‘alien cultures’ is a completely appropriate one. It would include the sort of cultures in which it is not uncommon for people to go around trying to behead others. This certainly doesn’t mean that everybody from any particular community should be accused of crimes they have not committed. But it also doesn’t mean we should all have to pretend to be completely ignorant of what an MP like Jim Allister is referring to.

Different cultures have different traditions, customs, habits and proclivities. They include different attitudes towards women, violence, gaming the system (including the asylum and welfare systems) and much else. The problem with this pretend ignorance is precisely that: it is a pretence. Everybody knows what people are getting at when they worry about the negative sides of their own culture, so why do we have to pretend to be completely befuddled when someone raises the negative sides of other cultures?

We all know the answer. Which is that generations of politicians and pundits have given us a problem that they do not know how to solve. But people have noticed the problem. And no amount of pretended bewilderment or deflection will cover that fact over for ever.

For generations, millions of Southern Poverty Law Center fundraising letters circulated around the country with pictures of Klansmen burning crosses on the envelope and begged donors for help in fighting the Klan. As it turns out those donors who contributed to the SPLC were paying for the crosses and the hoods as the Justice Department indictment of the organization reveals.

Contrary to its claims of fighting hate, the Southern Poverty Law Center wasn’t trying to shut down hate groups, it was paying money to keep them going, funding their recruitment and even watering down descriptions of them to encourage new members to join their hate groups.

You also never mentioned the other problems your government created. Women were being grabbed off the streets of Toronto, Jewish schools were being shot at, and the middle class was being taxed into exodus — all while you funneled millions to organizations with proven ties to Hamas and al-Qaeda, whose members burn your flag, chant for your death, and then cash your government’s checks.

The Muslim Association of Canada (MAC) operates mosques, schools, and community centers across the country — and according to the Canada Revenue Agency, it also functioned as “an apparent Hamas support network.” While Qatar Charity was funding MAC and MAC was funding Hamas, a parallel operation was running through Canadian universities — quieter, slower, and in many ways more dangerous. The Muslim Students Association has been present on Canadian campuses since the 1960s, founded by Muslim Brotherhood members studying at North American universities and designed from the start to spread Brotherhood ideology through what appeared to be an ordinary student club.

You are trading cardiac surgeons for terror networks; you are trading neurosurgeons for MAC conventions. You are handing out government grants to organizations that celebrate the murder of Jews and praise the killings of hundreds on 9/11, and calling it inclusion, while the people who built your hospitals pack their bags and leave.

The current broad application of “religion” under the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America rests on a modern invention foreign to the Bible, the Declaration of Independence, the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, and America’s Christian founding heritage. It cannot legitimately shield systems the Scriptures identify as false gods or idolatry.

Restoring the historically and constitutionally accurate understanding honors the vision of America’s Founders, upholds the supremacy of God recognized in our founding documents, and preserves meaningful liberty for the nation.

The ongoing intrusion, infiltration, and expansion of Islam inside America is not accidental––it is doctrinal. I am providing a sampling of Dr. Gawthrop’s extraordinary work because I believe it is impossible to solve a problem without understanding the problem. The American people have been misled––but knowledge is empowering and there is still time to save America from the creeping Islam that has engulfed Europe.

Islam is a challenger civilization, and we must remember that “At its core, Islam is a political system using religion as a unifying force characterized by a system of rules disguised as faith and foundational to a civilization.”

Knowledge is empowering––and now we are empowered with the information to confront and defeat Islam: the challenger civilization. Our time is now––while there is still time.

The first is Omar Alghabra. He used to be the head of the Canadian Arab Federation — which had their government funding cut off because they were too antisemitic. Alghabra personally lobbied the Canadian government to legalize Hamas and Hezbollah. He wanted them removed from the list of terrorist groups.

The second antisemite is a radical lawyer named Avnish Nanda, who specializes in representing Islamists and antisemites. One of his cases was just atrocious: you might remember that pro-Hamas extremists set up an illegal encampment at the University of Alberta, designed to humiliate and intimidate Jewish students and staff. When the university tried to clear away those hateful trespassers, Nanda sued the university, trying to stop them from removing them.

In Canada and elsewhere, this marriage between people who claim to be “anti-racist” and value human rights, and those, such as Hamas, who oppress women, stone gay people and denigrate Jews, has been gathering steam on university campuses for decades. It is why, after October 7, we saw educational unions that claim to represent broad swaths of society and left-wing professors actively cheering on Hamas’s “resistance.” This likely goes a long way in explaining why Ottawa has done little to curb the tide of antisemitism — the Carney government’s recent spring fiscal update allocated over three-times more money to save whales than to save Canadian Jews — and has turned its back on its historic allies in Jerusalem.

The result of a decade of unfettered immigration without regard to shared values is that Canada’s multicultural mosaic, once hailed as a model for the world, has been smashed to pieces. Demonstrators openly hold antisemitic signs and call for genocide against Jews. Prominent taxpayer-funded Islamic charities, like the Muslim Association of Canada (MAC), invite supporters of extremism and people who oppose liberal values to speak at their conventions.

Islamic schools are one of the fastest growing sectors of education in the West, yet most parents, politicians, journalists, and educators have little, if any, idea what is being taught.

Last week I published The Hidden Curriculum of Islamic Schools: From Prayer to Sharia – A Child’s Indoctrination. The book examines Islamic Studies curricula and supplementary texts used from Grades 1–12 and reveals what Muslim children are learning in English speaking countries around the globe.

Rage over a man who died 4,000 miles from Britain? Go for it. Rage over a boy who died right here in England? Don’t even think about it. The reason for this brazen double standard is clear. It’s because the Brits who ‘raged’ over Floyd were primarily bourgeois leftists who obsequiously bent the knee to the ruling-class ideology of identitarianism. Meanwhile, the Brits raging over Nowak’s death include huge numbers of working-class non-Londoners who want to dismantle identitarianism, with its hyper-racialism, anti-whiteness and two-tier policing.

The instinct of the elites, always, is to curb populist fury. We saw it after the Manchester Arena bombing of 2017, when we were encouraged to say ‘Don’t look back in anger’ and discouraged from talking about the Islamist menace. We saw it in relation to the rape-gang scandal, when we were sternly told that any use of ‘inflammatory language’ about those mostly Muslim gangs might ‘incite mass violence’. And now we see it after the death of Henry Nowak – that familiar imperious instruction to watch what you say, police how you feel, and, above all else, don’t get angry.

It’s not the reluctance of the general public, but the inability. The ruling oligarchs have been able to hobble any potential opposition by running the most successful propaganda operation of all time. People have literally been unaware of what was being done to them. They simply could not perceive that they were being scammed.

History will record that the British people, ordinary, decent, patient, beyond all reasonable expectation, eventually looked at what was being done to their country, stood up in their hundreds of thousands, and said, “Enough.”

A sweeping investigation by Fox News Digital says that more than 425 organizations across 39 countries are involved in organizing or promoting “Nakba 78” demonstrations marking the anniversary of Israel’s founding. More than 700 protests, rallies, marches, and campus actions were reportedly planned worldwide, stretching from the United States and Canada to Europe, Australia, and the Middle East.

According to the investigation, the network includes an alliance of radical left-wing activist groups, Islamist organizations, communist movements, pro-Palestinian advocacy groups, and anti-Western coalitions operating under a shared anti-Israel agenda. The combined financial infrastructure behind many of these organizations is estimated at nearly $1 billion annually through donations, nonprofit funding, international partnerships, and activist networks.

Whatever the elites may think about Tommy Robinson, no individual has stood up for the tried and terribly tested, ignored and sneered-at British working class more than he. Over many years. His energy and determination puts the rest of us to shame, as I said to his mother, whom I met for the first time backstage. I saw where his strength comes from – this tiny and wonderful woman whose love and loyalty he has consistently had behind him. My ‘why family matters so much’ conversation with her was the highlight of my day. Two mothers on the same wavelength, on the importance of family for society’s wellbeing, the key unit and unity that gives us the strength to stand up to the increasingly oppressive, repressive and intrusive State.

Yesterday’s march in London was very significant.

It exposed one of the biggest lies in British politics.

By all accounts, there was no violence, no racism, no extremism.

All I see in the videos are ordinary men, women, families, children, pensioners, & workers, many from different racial & ethnic backgrounds, expressing their entirely legitimate concerns about the direction of the country they love, their home.

The term ‘far-right’ used to mean organised political violence, extremism, racial hatred, and a rejection of democracy.

But now?

As Keir Starmer, Sadiq Khan, and much of Westminster has shown, the term ‘far right’ has been expanded to such an extent it means anybody who holds views the establishment disagrees with.

What happened yesterday was clearly not ‘far right’.

What happened yesterday was clearly not ‘hate’.

And what happened yesterday was clearly not ‘extremism’.

Mainstream commentators and politicians should find the courage to stand up and say this.

If you continue to casually smear millions of people as ‘far right’ then you’ll not only ensure the term no longer has any meaning at all.

You’ll also only deepen the well of resentment and understandable anger that millions of people feel as they are forced to watch the destruction of their home while being also told their entirely legitimate views are illegitimate.

The term ‘far right’ should only be used for genuine extremists who espouse racial hatred and want to overthrow democracy.

For all those people yesterday, they should be called what they are.

Comment by Norman Fenton:

When I look around this crowd I can see the full horror of the far-right extremists Starmer warned us about: taxpayers, pensioners, tradesmen, parents… even patriots carrying Union flags. It’s amazing the army hasn’t been called in already.

Comment by Ian Andrew Patrick:

Horror, genocide and flaming human torches were all the rage in London yesterday as billions of diverse taxpayers barricaded themselves in their penthouses from Baker Street to Chelsea Wharf to escape the Nazi legions swarming the capital. Marching in lockstep beneath flags of hatred and division, led by master-criminal proto-fascist Tommy Robinson, around 600,000 far-right mums, dadbods and Christian cake-bakers jackbooted their way through the jasmine-scented avenues of Westminster in a terrifying display of British behaviour. “I’ve never seen anything like it even on Pornhub” said Superintendent Willie Boyflogger of the Metropolitan Joy Division, “and there were only 200 of ’em anyway.”

In 2024, a government investigation concluded that a group of teachers, many of North African descent, created a hostile environment by yelling at, humiliating and imposing their religious views on students and staff at Bedford school.

The investigation found that the teachers, who were allegedly influenced by a local mosque, subjected children to physical and psychological abuse. The report cited incidents of prayers taking place in classrooms and alleged that some teachers either refused to teach or paid little attention to science and sex education requirements in the provincial curriculum.

Today’s starvation libel, the genocide libel, the baby-killers libel, the harvested organs libel — and now the “rape dogs” libel — all transmit the same message as the murderous blood libels of old: that the Jews are evil, demonic, inhuman. They are therefore to be excluded from the field of human empathy. They are to be branded as monsters and their suffering is to be denied.

We are realising to our horror that the skin of civilisation is extremely thin, and that it’s now been torn off altogether. We’re living through a spiritual plague. Barbarism is in the ascendant, and its super-spreader is The New York Times.
