What Have You Heard About the White, Non-criminal George Floyd? Probably Crickets

“I can’t breathe.” These were some of the final words of Henry Nowak, 18, a victim of a knifing — and British authorities’ wokeness. Nowak had repeatedly told police “I’ve been stabbed,” to which one cop replied, “I don’t think so, mate.” How’d they draw this conclusion?

They took the word of Vickrum Digwa, 23, the man who knifed Nowak with a Sikh “ceremonial” blade. Digwa, you see, had claimed he was a victim of a “racial attack.” And his mother, 53-year-old Kiran Kaur, had spirited the ceremonial knife away from the scene. So when Nowak said “I am dying” and Digwa replied “You’re not dying, bro,” the police knew whom to believe. They handcuffed Nowak instead of getting medical assistance.

He then died.

This incident occurred December 3, but is currently in the news. Because Digwa, who apparently was lying about the “racial” attack, was just convicted of the knifing. But, say critics, something else should also be news.

That is, unlike criminal George Floyd, who died while restrained by police in 2020, no one is taking a knee for Nowak. In fact, as far as the pseudo-elites are concerned, it’s “Nothing to see here, move along.”

A Lot to See

Reporting on the story Thursday, the Daily Express writes, Digwa

lied to police, telling officers that he was the victim of a racist attack after he stabbed finance student, Henry Nowak, from Chafford Hundred, five times with a 21cm blade in Southampton… While filming a video, he told his victim “I am a bad man”, before inflicting two stab wounds to the back of Mr Nowak’s legs, and a fatal wound to his heart.

By the way, Britain has knife control. Normally, too, citizens are limited to carrying a folding knife with a cutting edge not exceeding three inches. But there’s no limit to the size of the “ceremonial” blade a Sikh can carry for religious reasons.

(So note: Should I again visit Britain, authorities should know that my religion obliges me to carry a ceremonial M-16.)

In a public apology, Hampshire Police now admit that Nowak shouldn’t have been handcuffed and arrested. “He was the victim,” said Deputy Chief Constable Robert France. How much of one? As website the Hungarian Conservative writes:

According to evidence presented during the trial, Nowak attempted to flee after being attacked, climbing over a fence while leaving a visible blood trail behind him. Prosecutors stated that Digwa aggressively pursued the wounded teenager through the streets before police arrived.

The case triggered nationwide outrage after prosecutors revealed that officers handcuffed the visibly bleeding teenager after Digwa accused him of racial abuse. Prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg KC described the accusation as a ‘wicked lie about a dying man’, arguing that Digwa used racism as his ‘trump card’ to mislead officers into arresting the victim instead of the attacker.

…The trial became a major flashpoint in Britain’s ongoing debate over ‘two-tier policing’. Critics argued that police immediately prioritized allegations of racism over providing medical treatment to a severely injured white British teenager. Pressure also mounted for the release of police body camera footage from the scene, particularly after reports emerged that Nowak’s final words included ‘I can’t breathe’ while restrained by officers.

This two-tiered policing — the product of “woke” social pressure — is now an old story, too. The same phenomenon caused U.K. authorities to ignore the beating, terrorizing, and sexual abuse of native British children by Muslim gangs for 16 years. Why, one whistleblower was forced into diversity training and told “You must never [again] refer to Asian men.” (“Asian” means “Muslim” here.)

As Forbes’ Roger Scruton put it in 2014:

Let slip the mere hint that Pakistani Muslims are more likely than indigenous Englishmen to commit sexual crimes and you will be branded as a racist and an Islamophobe, to be ostracised in the workplace and put henceforth under observation.

Then there’s Axel Rudakubana, the 17-year-old Rwandan who murdered three little girls and stabbed 10 others in 2024. He’d exhibited warning signs (and would be found post-crime to have downloaded an Al-Qaeda training manual). But the teen wasn’t reported to U.K. security officials for fear that it would smack of “racial stereotyping.”

And despite all this (and more), how did the British establishment respond?

It created Adolescence, a mini-series about the stabbing murder of a girl — in which the killer was a cute little 13-year-old British white boy.

Still in Denial

And corresponding to the two-tiered policing is two-tiered memorialization. As The Telegraph wrote Thursday:

Since the murder of Henry Nowak there has been stony silence from the Government. Not a peep from the Home Secretary. Not a word from the Prime Minister who is normally quick to respond to deaths involving the police, both in the UK and abroad. Remember the spectacle of him “taking the knee” over George Floyd’s death?

The Telegraph then continues:

So why has this appalling injustice been met with a collective shrug by politicians in Westminster? With the exception of a couple of us including Henry’s local MP, Jen Craft, it has not been raised in the House of Commons. I asked the Home Secretary to launch an investigation into the police’s conduct and a debate on two-tier policing — needless to say I was rebuffed.

The silence can be explained by the fact that most politicians are more interested in showing their supposed virtue by favouring minority communities at the expense of the majority. So they look away at injustices perpetrated by minorities, lest it colour the multicultural illusion they have that the country is a harmonious melting pot. And they ignore prejudiced laws and the conventions of so-called “anti-racism” which lead to discrimination against the majority.

This is partially why, too, anti-establishment forces are coming to the fore. In a historic victory, nationalist, anti-immigrationist party Reform UK trounced Britain’s two major parties in May 7 local elections. On our side of the pond, tech billionaire Elon Musk has offered to fund a lawsuit against the Hampshire Police.

And this is all well and good, of course. Yet true remedy lies elsewhere: in fundamental change — cultural transformation. Until Brits (and Westerners generally) rediscover faith and resurrect virtue, all efforts at cultural renewal will be in vain. They’ll just be rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic or, perhaps, descend into a different cultural error. For if you’re not ruled by the Truth, you will be tyrannized by a fashionable lie.
