They are "clumsy" because they don't care. They don't care because they think the police are their are regime protectors not law enforcement. And yes the contrast between Nowak and St George of Fentanyl is amazing as I wrote here - https://ombreolivier.substack.com/p/the-martyrdom-of-henry-nowak?r=7yrqz
It occurred to me that if Labor can get away with downplaying and denying thousands of poor young white girls being drugged, kidnapped gang raped and brutally tortured without George Floyd like indignation and protest just maybe a young college white boy being blamed for racism, handcuffed, denied being stabbed and left to die would be enough to finally put an end to real racism and manipulation of British police standards might be enough to end the iron grip of an authoritarian, cultural suicidal government it might finally free British citizens from their downfall.
Don’t give up, don’t stay silent. Never forget.
Remember at all times your biggest enemy are white liberal coconspirators of your battle for liberty and the end of your country.
Hi Deidre thank you. Yes, this could be a turning point for British police. They could realise that they need to regain the public trust which they can only do by restating a goal of impartiality, and promising to genuinely learn the lessons.
They’ve done it before, they did genuinely change after the McPherson report, and I’d argue that their efforts to stamp out the racism which was clearly ingrained in some areas was laudable and necessary.
They need to see the Henry Nowak murder as a similar watershed moment. But of course they wont. They will just claim the moral high ground, dismiss criticism and carry on as before. The police don’t seem to realise this loss of public trust is a disaster for everyone, and not something that can be solved with a riot shield and baton charge.
I think the MacPherson Report needs to be correctly framed. It was commissioned by Jack Straw and formed part of the broader New Labour project to smash traditional Britain and reshape it in the Blairite mould. Ironically, given the current rhetoric, it allowed Blair et al to politicise the botched investigation into an awful murder, generalising that specific failure into ‘institutional racism’ and driving the police to the current, completely racist outcome. The average 90s Brit was past racism and so was the average copper. And now we are here. Well done.
I only see things on social media so I am curious about things. Here in the US when defund/blame all police notion exploded during the summer of love George fest. There a number of random police killings. They also were treated like evil guard dogs on the street everyday. It still happens with the paid protestors. Anyway I worried that hood police would all say screw this and leave the force, many did especially in dem cities. Then of course they would be left with newly trained young believers too afraid and naive to keep law and order. That has happened too. Mostly again but not all dem cities.
I see so many clips of British police in yellow hazard vests who look so young, feckless at times and ill equipped to handle difficult situations. They also appear anyway to believe in the two tier system they’ve been trained in. Is that widespread or only what gets put online?
I saw a clip yesterday of police in black uniforms without the bright yellow vest and they appeared to look strong, confident and way more in control. Is it all an illusion?
I’d say that most police you see on British streets, (I’m very much talking London) are young people, and ‘Community Police Officers’ -a sort of part time volunteer force. Sometimes they can be OK, but they can also be sniffy and dismissive. They do not project authority.
In addition you do see more burly types who look a bit more up to the job. I was in Kings Cross station earlier in the week and there were a couple of armed officers, a big guy and a smaller woman, but they both looked very capable and like they meant business. Their presence was reassuring.
So all in all a mixed bag. The weird thing is how overmanned they are in some situations. I’ve seen nine officers turn up when there was a belligerent shoplifter in a chemist for example, really? Two of you could have handled with that. They won’t show up in an emergency, but in many low grade incidents, they seem to arrive in swarms. Again. That’s just my London experience.
I have nothing but contempt for Starmer. This lying, incompetent, hypocrite got down on one knee after the death of an American black man who was a nasty drug dealer who overdosed while being arrested for trying to pass counterfeit money; and then had the gall to demand people dont " politicise" the death of a white man, stabbed by an immigrant, and who died while being arrested by ideologically captured and incompetent police officers. You cannot hate this man enough for what he has done to this country both as DPP and PM.
My son sent me a quote from Lt. Col. Jeff Cooper (USMC) which has lodged in my mind since poor Henry Nowak's encounter with the Police -
Cooper wrote, "If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim".
Sadly, we must now include the Police in the list of those who must be taught to fear and respect the peaceful law-abiding majority. Governments should also fear us rather than the reverse.
Agreed Chris. Though I don’t want the police to live in fear of violence. I want their bosses to live in fear of losing their jobs, their careers and their pensions.
Impartiality should be enshrined in their ‘guidance’ and rules from now on. Just as ‘anti-racism’ is now.
"Regardless of race, colour, or creed, justice should be blind. There should be just one law (No Sharia. Not you), and it should apply to everyone equally."
Agreed. Once you start admitting exceptions and special cases, you are departing from the idea of a polity or nation - a group of people who are content to be bound by the same universal rules - and moving towards anarchy.
Thank you Simon. Agreed. I cannot fathom how far we have moved from the ideal of equality before the law. And what’s potentially worse, the defence of this blatant and institutionalised asymmetry by our politicians and police chiefs.
It has a list of things that people should be saying to authorities about Two Teir policing, to make their point stick better.
Here's one that stuck with me.
> what would you have done if Henry and Digwa’s roles were reversed? Imagine a young Asian man being treated as Henry was?
I think many of those journalists/politicians/police chiefs genuinely don’t understand why people are so angry. They think it's because they are racists.
But ask them to think about what would be the reaction to, say, a young white man murdering three little Somali girls with a sword; or a thousand white taxi drivers raping five thousand Muslim girls. Would they keep that hushed up? Would they ask the public to not make a fuss about it?
Hi Ragged. Sadly, and I do mean this, I don’t think they really want to understand. They have no interest in seeing things from the other side because they believe that everyone on the other side is a Nazi. Not figuratively, but actually. I know this from first hand experience. Anyone who questions the shibboleths of ‘anti racism’, ‘asylum seekers,’ Remain, trans, is immediately considered beyond the pale. They won’t debate any of this, they will just tell you, you are wrong, or your opinion is racist or phobic.
Also, we don’t need to guess what would happen in the counterfactual you describe, because it happened before, with George Floyd, when the world and our police force fell to its knees.
The reality is that they seem to genuinely see the world through the lens of ‘white people (except people exactly like me) bad, ethnic minorities/all asylum seekers good’. They don’t wish to understand the anger, they only want to condemn the angry.
This would have made a neat leaflet for Reform to push out in Makerfield, where they are about to hand Burnham and the Labour Party an easy win - because their marketing 'techniques' (if you can even call them 'techniques') are dismal.
Yes Mrs Bucket. I think Burnham will win easily. And I agree, it’s the same as with Gorton and Denton, Reform need to up their game. Not sure how, but it’s working at the moment, despite their continued lead in the national polls.
Reform are 'winning' because the establishment is so utterly nasty, corrupt and Communist. It's a MASSIVE open goal, how could they possibly miss?? But they will miss in Makerfield because their marketing is atrocious. They needed a multi issue, exciting, positive, upbeat, fighting talk 4 page tabloid sized newspaper with lots of lovely pictures, strong headlines and minimal text. And they needed it ready on Day One with an army of supporters ready to deliver it in the first week to 73,000 homes. Then sit back and watch Labour, Tories, DimLibs, Greens and the Marxist media all explode with rage...and reveal themselves.
I think they believe Burnham's claim that he would trigger a General Election if elected PM .... which would take a Looooong Tiiiime cos it would take months for him to even be allowed as a candidate for a PM contest .... and the backbenchers know that an early GE would mean they would lose their jobs. So hands up anyone who thinks that would really happen? Surely Makerfield voters can see through that?
haha yeah … I’ve heard also that the plan is for him to make Wes Chancellor if he becomes PM ….I hate Wes cos he wanted to do that ‘puberty blocker’ experiment on ‘trans’ kids. Disgusting. Plus he has background with Mandelson ….
I won’t believe Shabana and the rest of government will do a single thing to stamp out two tier policing, until I hear them calling out anti white hatred as often and passionately as they do for anti Muslim hate or calling all the marches regarding foreign issues as been divisive, hateful and sowing fear as the do for the UTK marches. Their own behaviour and words demonstrate that they agree with two tier systems.
And here’s another example of the Police boasting about their multi tier approach to policing and even claiming they have an obligation to practise it. From yesterday and truly mind blowing:
Odd - I’ve just clicked the link again and it works for me. Anyway, Sarah Phillimore has now written a Substack about this so maybe that will be more successful:
Is a Sikh still exempt if he's not wearing his turban ? Simply asking, coz if that's the case, then presumably I can identify as a sikh if I want to right ? Great article.
I think the law says that ‘while wearing a turban’. So no. I don’t think identifying as a Sikh will cut it Christian. Soz. Also. Wear a helmet!!! I ride a motorbike, the thought of setting out without a helmet sends shivers down my spine…..🫣
No I wasn't unfortunately,but I well remember him,my brother had the set,I was incredibly jealous and when we fell out I cut the legs off of his Subuteo ,what a rotter I was ,nothing’s changed.All good wishes.
That makes the two of us.! What a world it's become.I well remember the Backgammon with a distinguished gentleman in a white evening jacket .(I lived in Cairo for a time and actually saw Omar Sharif at the Mena House Oberoi ,what a gent stood up for all the autograph hounds and went off to a private room as it was becoming too much).We’re lucky to have lived in the era we did.Hope you’ve still got eval !If you've got a subuteo watch out .
Of course. Tthe 7th Voyage (1958) was also an absolute classic. Yes Munro was terrific. Just rewatched the Spy Who Loved Me recently. Munro and Barbara Bach. An incredible pair. 👍
The only Harryhausen movie I’ve watched was the Pegasus one, when I was in my early twenties. My friend and I were in fits of laughter all through it because of the horse’s prodigious snorting and stomping before every takeoff.
But now the “six-armed goddess of evil” from Sinbad has stuck in my mind. I don’t think any of our British wicked women can chop and slash with more than two, so I’ll have to look abroad for suitable real-life equivalents.
And yet you never do see turbanned Sikhs on motorbikes do you? 🤔
Given that people still vote for the Uniparty in droves, I am forced to conclude that most people are cool with hypocrisy - which is worrying. If we don't share moral standards, how can we possibly live together?
They are lying
We know they are lying
They know we know they are lying
They don't stop lying.
They are "clumsy" because they don't care. They don't care because they think the police are their are regime protectors not law enforcement. And yes the contrast between Nowak and St George of Fentanyl is amazing as I wrote here - https://ombreolivier.substack.com/p/the-martyrdom-of-henry-nowak?r=7yrqz
I look forward to reading that a bit later Francis. Thanks for the link. 👍
Isn’t that a hallmark of total power, the ability to define truth?
‘’I am the way, the truth, and the light.’ So yes Martin I guess so! 🤔
God can get away with it though.
Another excellent synopsis LSO!

It’s low hanging fruit. Happens with the CPS as well. Like prosecuting motor offences not theft or violence.
Yes, Brian, they don’t seem to mind doing the easy jobs!
I have nothing but contempt for Starmer.

brilliant article and exactly how it is now living in the UK. For our children and grandchildren's sake we cannot allow things to remain as they are.
"Regardless of race, colour, or creed, justice should be blind. There should be just one law (No Sharia. Not you), and it should apply to everyone equally."
Agreed. Once you start admitting exceptions and special cases, you are departing from the idea of a polity or nation - a group of people who are content to be bound by the same universal rules - and moving towards anarchy.

WTH would vote labour? Vote Reform
It looks like the people of Makerfield might. If they do it's simply proof that there's no cure for stupid.
I think they believe Burnham's claim that he would trigger a General Election if elected PM .... which would take a Looooong Tiiiime cos it would take months for him to even be allowed as a candidate for a PM contest .... and the backbenchers know that an early GE would mean they would lose their jobs. So hands up anyone who thinks that would really happen? Surely Makerfield voters can see through that?
At the moment I wouldn't lay money on it. I also read that Burnham has U-turned on triggering a GE.
haha yeah … I’ve heard also that the plan is for him to make Wes Chancellor if he becomes PM ….I hate Wes cos he wanted to do that ‘puberty blocker’ experiment on ‘trans’ kids. Disgusting. Plus he has background with Mandelson ….
Agreed. He’s green lit that £11 m ‘test’ to see if sterilising children is good for them or not. 🙄

There was a time when we used to say "Rules were made to be broken, NOT laws" the law has now become a ridiculously complex rule book.

Ha Subuteo! I was almost as rubbish at that as I always have been at actual football….🤣

Loved those Sinbad movies, and Caroline Munro.😉
Of course. Tthe 7th Voyage (1958) was also an absolute classic. Yes Munro was terrific. Just rewatched the Spy Who Loved Me recently. Munro and Barbara Bach. An incredible pair. 👍

Totally charming. Even the evil goddesses!

Yes Bettina. They’re not idiots, I expect most Sikhs realise that riding without a helmet is a terrible idea, whether they are are allowed to or not!
Great to see you at the literary festival this week. Good luck with everything you have going on right now!
Lovely to see you too. Thank you, and you!
