The media haven’t failed to mention him. The first reports were about the stabbings in Golders Green, then once the alleged perpetrator was identified, there were articles about him, and every one I read mentioned his earlier victim. This was across a wide range of media.
Starmer has been accused of not taking anti-Semitism seriously. His statement addressed growing anti-Semitism and the fears of the Jewish community after the stabbing of these two Jewish men, and other recent attacks on the Jewish community.
Of course the Muslim man he stabbed earlier matters! No-one has said he doesn’t!
It’s such a silly position to take. It’s like some of those awful school shootings in the US. A number of times the perpetrator has killed one or more members of his family prior to going to attack a school. Politicians then talk about how to make schools safe, the dreadful deaths of children and so on, but that doesn’t mean they think it’s just fine he killed his mum/dad/other adult relative! I can’t believe that even needs saying.
The growing anti-Semitism in the U.K. is shocking.
