Starmer rejects US ‘two-tier policing’ criticism over Henry Nowak murder
The Irish News ^ | June 5, 2026 | Helen Corbett

Sir Keir Starmer’s Government has rejected an intervention from the Trump administration over Henry Nowak’s murder in which it said so-called two-tier policing is taking place in the UK.

Downing Street dismissed the suggestion, echoing Justice Secretary David Lammy, who had earlier said it did not chime with his experience.

The Liberal Democrats have called for the US ambassador to the UK to be summoned over what they called the “flagrant foreign interference that seeks to fan the flames of division”.

But No 10 said the relationship with the US remained “incredibly strong”.

It comes amid a political row over the police’s treatment of 18-year-old Mr Nowak, who was handcuffed by officers who ignored his pleas that he had been stabbed as he lay dying.

The man known as “Two Tier Keir” rejects the idea of a two tier justice system?

“Who you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes?”

England is lost. If they won’t fight to save themselves why should we bother even caring? Same goes for the rest of the world.

Cuffing and reading rights to a victim bleeding out is also a sign of strength. I really wish I could unsee that video.

> Starmer rejects US ‘two-tier policing’ criticism <

Maybe that’s because Starmer actually has a three-tier policing system.

Top tier: Members of the British Deep State (including cops)
Middle tier: Third-world immigrants
Bottom tier: Everyone else

Two tier? Balderdash.

It was more like cops sucking up to criminals. The more we know
about police behavior that fateful night, the more disgrace envelops them.
<><>A dying bloodied victim was cuffed
<><>but the murderer Digwa was never cuffed.
<><>Rather Digwa was treated as the Constabulary’s “honored guest.”
<><>Digwa was afforded every cop courtesy, despite having just stabbed the 18-year-old
<><>Henry Nowak was callously left to die.

Outrageously, at the police station the sap-happy cops blithely took killer
Digwa into the cops private kitchen to make sure he was fed specific Sikh-type food.


The killer’s brother, Gurpreet, called police to cover-up the murder.
He lied profusely, telling police that “a Sikh w/ a turban” was “racially attacked.”

Gurpreet is heard continually lying to the police saying:
“We’re Sikhs, we wear turbans. My brother was racially attacked.”

Gurpreet emphasized the coverup, saying that “no weapons had been involved.” As more
evidence of cops sucking up to Sikhs, Gurpreet has never been charged as an accessory to murder.

Gotta love the spin. Its “US” criticism of two-tiered policing. Even though the British have been criticizing two-tiered policing and calling Starmer “Two-Tier Keir” for years, this article makes it sound like the criticism is coming from an outside source - the evil Trump-controlled US. The paper’s readers get that Trump dog whistle and go insane with rage and stop thinking. The criticism is illegitimate because it comes from Trump’s US!!!!!

Like the a-holes in the Canadian media the UK media will always use Trump as the boogey man to help the leftist party.

When the “outraged” Brits call in the US Ambassador to complain, would hope that Trump has directed the Ambassador to tell the Brits that they are delusional fools not worth protecting.

“Peace loving Sikhs,” Digwa’s father, Moga Singh, 52 appeared in court
alongside sons Gurpreet Digwa, 27 and murderer Vickrum Digwa, 23,
<><>they face six counts of possessing offensive weapons in a private place.
<><>alleged weapons include a flick knife, an extendable baton,
<><>plus knuckledusters, a machete, swords and kusaris.

Gurpreet Digwa faces four additional charges
<><>for possessing an offensive weapon, an asp, in a public place,
<><>possessing a prohibited weapon, an air rifle,
<><>possessing an axe in a public place
<><>and possessing a knife, a kirpan, in a public place.

They appeared at Southampton Magistrates Court just hours after Vickrum Digwa was handed a life sentence with a minimum of 21 years for knifing 18-year-old Henry Nowak to death.

Natalie Angel, prosecuting, asked for extra time to consider which charges against the three defendants to proceed with and told the court: “A number of weapons were recovered in this case.”

"David Lammy, who had earlier said it did not chime with his experience."

That is called 'willful ignorance', as learned from and used by the lunatic
liberals in the USA.

It’s just been reported that the murderous, blade-happy Sikh, Digwa, was involved in a nasty road-rage incident in which he threatened the other party / parties with some sort of sword or saber.

Worst of all those “cops” didn’t even check him to see if he was bleeding, an abomination I’ve not even read about US cops ever doing, even in white on black or black on white situations.
