This is Sarah Everard, and everyone remembers the case surrounding her death.
On the 3rd of March 2021, she was kidnapped off the street by an off-duty Metropolitan police officer, Wayne Couzens. He identified himself as the police and handcuffed her, then went on to rape and murder her.
It was a horrific event, and Couzens was sentenced to a whole life in prison.
It revealed major failings within the Met police, and many more officers were exposed for heinous wrongdoings against women.
At the time Farage released a video and said the following:
“We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police”.
He also went on to urge the public to remain calm and defend the police as an institution.
Yet when a young man called Henry Nowak is murdered on the 3rd of December 2025 and the perpetrator is sentenced to life in prison on the 28th of May 2026 Farage’s response was:
To try and claim the police were guilty of two-tier policing.
Then in a video he released, he said, and I quote:
“The rest of us responded with pure, cold rage”.
This then resulted in further riots incited by Farage in Southampton, where police officers were attacked.
So why a different approach to each tragic loss of life?
The murderer of Sarah Everard was a white serving police officer.
The murderer of Henry Nowak was a Sikh carrying a religious kirpan. He did not use the kirpan to commit the murder but another weapon but that hasn’t stopped the far right from trying to get the kirpan banned even though it’s a religious symbol of faith.
Calls for calm for one case of murder and pure, cold rage for another, and the difference is the ethnicity of the perpetrators and genders of the victims.
Convince me he’s not racist and misogynistic; I’ll wait.
I’ll also wait for an explanation for the £5 million bribe he took that he’s hoping to distract us from with this.
