To think Nigel Farage should be locked up?

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.

And presumably that's also why the traveller boys who raped two girls were given such appallingly light sentences last week- ethnic minority trumps the victims rights in two tier policing and it's right there in the guidance

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

From the BBC:

The Independent Office for Police Conduct's (IOPC) is reviewing a guidance document from the National Police Chiefs' Council, which says its goal of "producing equality of policing outcomes... does not mean treating everyone 'the same' or being 'colour blind'..."

Here’s some proof. This is absolutely a political issue. Hoping it gets shut down is childish nonsense.

Get a grip. Farage is right on this one. 2 tier policing based on race is undeniable. Its there in the polices own documentation and training material. Hence Labour trying to make this about Farage.

Also, a peaceful protest is very different to setting fire to cars outside family homes, scaring the women and children inside.

He is doing the exact thing that Starmer did by kneeling after the death of St. Floyd. He said he was angry about it. His words and actions encouraged violence and riots.

So please, spare us the moral superiority.

Kneeling is not the same thing as calling for “pure cold rage”. No matter how you try to dress it up, that is a direct call for violence.

I am hoping he loses some support amongst his followers following his “pure rage” comments which are clearly an invitation to violent protest. Very happy to see him loudly heckled in the HoC yesterday.

Someone is a bit salty that Farage is right. And you can no longer deny it. The proof is undeniable.

And unless your called out Starmer for stoking racial violence after St. Floyd, you have no moral authority to lecture anyone about Farage encouraging "rage." Perhaps rage from the working class majority is exactly what is needed.

What a pile of crap. Farage is divisive, dangerous and utterly disrespectful towards Henry Nowak's family, who explicitly asked people not to exploit Henry' death to sow division and hatred.

Farage is a disgrace to humanity and to the people of this country, and so is anyone who seeks to defend him or repeat his divisive messages.

What do you want to happen? Who do you want the rage directed towards? The police? Police dogs? Maybe Henry Novak’s father?

“Salty”.

He is completely wrong. Henry Nowak’s family have called for his death to not be used for political gain.

The case of George Floyd was entirely different. He was murdered by a police officer. Whatever happened in his life, he did not deserve to be murdered by police.

Henry Nowak was stabbed by a man, who then lied to the police. The police responded with pure incompetence but it’s not the same thing, is it?

He is a traitor but unfortunately has a cult following and locking him up will cause absolute carnage.
