He was inciting violence with his “address to the nation” speech, calling for rage.

Meanwhile, he doesn’t care when women are actually murdered by the police

Surely enough is enough and they need to take action?

Nigel Farage MP (@Nigel_Farage) on X

We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police.

Can you provide the actual documents and proof, rather than saying “it’s undeniable” with no proof?

Why do you say that? There have been plenty of very recent examples, the 14 rapists being effectively let off. The training at Hants Police.

What on earth are we doing in the UK.

OP do you not feel cold hard rage against Henry's killer, the murders family and the Police officers that handcuffed Henry and to brass that lied to Henry's family for months? I certainly feel it and i don't need to wait until i am told by a politician. Farage is not someone i would vote for but he has the right to highlight just what is going on in this country. There is a two tier system in Policing, the justice system and housing. We have a Prime minister that won't support our country's values or heritage and takes great delight in making sure our veterans are prosecuted. British people are fed up and have the right to voice their opinion and take to the streets in peaceful protest. I don't agree with the violence but i can understand why it happens.

Henry’s family are part Polish. Do you include that side of his family in your definition of British people? When does someone become British?

Yes because he doesn't give a shit, just like Starmer who for some reason only takes the knee for black American men killed by the police, and not for white British women.

For the hard of thinking Farage is not calling for attacks on police he is calling for people to be allowed to be angry (as only the left currently after allowed to be) - not at the police as this is a much wider issue than this - we should be angry at the politicians and their toxic policies.

What bastard injures a police dog ? What sort of person is that ?

Imagine having a brick through your window.
Of finding your garden wall demolished because they wanted bricks to throw ?

As bad as members of the community that practice FGM, marry their daughters off at 12, have multiple wives, make them cover themselves from head to toe, and form child grooming gangs, eh...?

Your point isn't relevant to the topic and neither is it correct.

To be fair, it took him a while to realise.

DrMorbius · 04/06/2026 09:52

Does anyone on here really think this case would be front and center in the media, if it wasnt for Farage, Jenrick et al, in the first instance?
This appalling crime happened 7 months ago, and this is the first I have heard about.
Strange that isn't it?

Non answer. Sometimes it’s ok for politicians to use words such as fury and anger.

I don't have to answer your questions, I'm sick of you quoting so many of my posts and trying to derail the point.

Farage decided to turn up to Parliament yesterday as he saw an opportunity to use a teenager's death to recoup some momentum. He's a disgrace, totally shameless corrupt individual, for sale to the highest bidder. Anyone who thinks he loses a moment's sleep over this tragedy or the lives of 'ordinary people', is deluded.

PoppingZits · 04/06/2026 09:49

Agree!
Amongst his crazy fans are Robert Kenyon, Danny Kruger, Bonnie Blue (and her thousands of men)
And people are stupid enough to think that Reform UK, that Farage is the change this country needs. 😂 You couldn’t make this shit up!

Just a reminder that when Sarah Everard was murdered by a Policeman he (Farage) said "We must not allow the tragic murder of a young woman turn into attacks on men and attacks on the police" and called for calm.

Is rage that different to anger and fury, words used by Khan and others after George Floyd?

Depends what the issue is to what they actually believe…. If Henry dying in cold blood at the hands of a man of colour watched by police and disbelieved then ACTUALLY HANDCUFFED IN HIS LAST MINUTES is not the proof then what is?

The police prioritising the person they believe to be a victim over the person they believe to be the culprit is not evidence of two tier policing. It happens on a daily basis to people of all backgrounds.

EssexLounger · 04/06/2026 09:46

Lock him up, just like Nelson Mandela.

All these left wing people like "Sir" Keir and people on here ranting on about "fascists" and "far right" remind me of Rick from the Young Ones (a long time ago but he was a parody of a left me wing student who called everyone fascist). Grow up! People have genuine concerns and if you think Lowe and Farage are "facists" or "Hitler" you really have lost your marbles.

Farage is only out for Farage. Do you honestly think he gives a damn about anyone (particularly his constituency)? He's lazy, greedy and arrogant.

Lowe is dangerous. I read his rantings, just to see what he's saying. He is a nasty piece of work, shielded by his vast wealth from the results of his ravings. I think accusations of nazism and likening individuals to nazis are usually hyperbolic and ridiculous, but in Lowe's case I'm not so sure.

sittingonabeach · 04/06/2026 09:32

@Menopausalsourpuss you say Starmer doesn’t care as he has money and a gold plated pension. What do you think Farage has, do you think he really cares about people?

Farage doesn't have any power so irrelevant. If/when he gets power if he makes us unsafe and poorer like Starmer and his ilk (whilst enriching themselves and having personal security) of the last 30 years and their policies I will judge him accordingly.

EasternStandard · 04/06/2026 09:45

glitterpaperchain · 04/06/2026 09:41

What Farage said was abhorrent. You should agree whether you support Reform or not. "I suggest the rest of us respond to this with pure, cold rage" is absolutely inciting violence.

The family specifically did not want his death to be used in this way. They said "We do not want his death to be used to create further division, hatred, or tension."

If Farage believes there is a policing problem there are many ways he can tackle that. This is clearly an opportunistic move to use this highly publicised event for his own means. He does not care about the family. Nasty man.

In the case of the murder of Daniel Anjorin the police who attended the incident were incredibly brave.

In the case of the murder of Henry Novak the police who attended the incident handcuffed a dying boy.

I'm very definitely NOT a Farage supporter. I utterly condemn the riots in Southampton.

The problem is that after DEI training the racists are still racists (just more quiet about it), other participants learn and apply the training along with a big dose of common sense, and a few over correct and we end up with this type of appalling incident.

DEI isn’t a thing here. Please get your facts straight.

Seems like such a short time since we were told we had to Brexit to get the Poles out, now we are being told we have to get the Muslims ( ie brown people) out.

Some time ago a black schoolboy was murdered by a sword wielding white bloke. No riots then, no sign of Farage or Tommy Ten Names. Tells me all I need to know about Reform and their “thick as mince” voters and supporters.
Henry was Polish. Ten years ago they’d have been demanding his repatriation. But now because he’s dead and hes white he’s a useful vehicle for their hatred and divisive politics.

The fact you are saying St Floyd shows you are a massive racist so I will choose to ignore your ignorance

LOL. Yep. I'm a racist for sure. You got me! :)

Rather than examine my reasoned arguments, you resort to name calling. This is both an ineffective political strategy and a convenient way to avoid engaging with arguments that make you uncomfortable.

My parents are Mexican immigrants to the US. My spouse is a southest asian refugee. My children are mexican and southeast Asian. But sure, I hate minorities. I'm certainly a white supremacist, amirate?

I very much doubt it.
For years now we've had a two tier justice system, starting with the police and going right through the prosecutors to the judges.
Women who have been campaigning for our rights have seen this again and again. We've seen men turn up to womens speaking events dressed all in black with masks and weapons, harassing, verbally abusing and assaulting women whilst thr police did nothing.
We've had men dangerous men stalking and threatening women and their children all whilst the police do nothing.
We've had so many death and rape threats that have been ignored that most of us no longer report them.
We've had a convicted kidnapper, torturor, sexual abuser and murderer out on licence get up in front of a massive crowd and tell them through a pa system "if you see a TERF punch them in the face" all caught on film initially ignored by the police and probation services until there was so much public outcry that they had no choice but to act, but the judge let him off with a slap on the wrist because "he was just joking".
We've had marches with clear and obvious threats to kill women on placards and banners, we've even had MPs and MSPs photographed standing under a sign calling for all terfs to be decapitated yet nobody has ever been questioned let alone prosecuted even with several ceat images of the man holding it.
All of these violent men have been allowed by the police prosecutors and judges to continue getting away with it because these men claim to be women and the women they attack are gender critical.
Whilst all this abuse of women has been going on and men who are GC have been arrested, given illegal bail conditions, taken to crt and/or given NCHI records or had actual hate crimes recorded against them for simply stating biological reality and the law that no man can be a woman and that men dont belong in women's single sex spaces.

This has happened because of the DEI policies that thr police, prosecutors and judges have been indoctrinated in (to thr point that rape victims were forced to call their male rapists she/her in crt). Unfortunately its not only the dangerous gender identity ideology that has been pushed under DEI policies so has the anti white, christiphobic, racist Critical Race Theory.
It has been obvious to anyone who bothered to look that the criminal justice system has been broken and biased for years and its long past time that DEI was made illegal because all it does is push devision and exclusion.

People are justifiably angry and fed up over it and the mealy mouthed responses from those in power even after its been proven that police policies actually say you must treat ethnic minorities better than white people (the government has only just admitted that that guidance is "wrong" when infact its illegal as it goes against the Nolan principle). Given all of that i expect that odious little toad Farage being the only political leader who is actively calling this fiasco out for what it is is going to gain more support not lose it

its long past time that DEI was made illegal because all it does is push devision and exclusion

Whilst I completely agree with you about the treatment of TRA and GC women, if you abandon all DEI policy and law there is a danger of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
The Equality Act give protection to e.g. pregnant women, disabled people, gay people and old and young people.
I am absolutely not in favour of allowing discrimination on the basis of e.g. age, pregnancy, or disability.
