Let&#8217;s talk about this horrible case that we&#8217;ve been covering extensively for years: The grooming gang scandal in the U.K.
A new 219-page <a href="https://static1.squarespace.com/static/6810978a41bbc42489eafa81/t/6a314bb1151e511944bd4421/1781615537601/The+Rape+Gang+Inquiry+Report.pdf">report</a> has been released by British MP Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain party.
It is worth noting that some of the evidence that is produced in this report is unverified; it&#8217;s similar to reading the Epstein files a little raw, meaning there may be allegations that have not been substantiated or checked out.
However, what is in this report is horrifying. According to the report:
<blockquote>Britain doesn&#8217;t have a racism problem. It has an immigration problem. &#8230; Believing proud nations to be responsible for the mid 20th century destruction of Europe, our postwar leaders embraced diversity and multiculturalism as the supposedly civilized alternative. This report establishes beyond any doubt that this &#8220;open society&#8221; obsession has, in fact, enabled untold barbarism of its own.

The report continues:
<blockquote>250,000 young white girls have been subjected to rape, gang rape, trafficking, torture, pregnancy, Islamic forced conversion, and lifelong trauma. &#8230; 87% of those convicted in these group-based child sexual exploitation cases bore distinctively Muslim names &#8230; far exceed[ing] the Muslim share of the overall United Kingdom population. (About 6.5%.) &#8230; Crimes occurred in at least 149 local authority districts — close to 40% of all such districts across the United Kingdom.</blockquote>
I&#8217;m not sure how those numbers were compiled or if every victim was listed. What we do know from police investigations is that the number is definitely into the thousands.
Whether it&#8217;s in the hundreds of thousands, I don&#8217;t know. What we do know is that the institutions catastrophically failed. This part of the report is absolutely 100% true:
<blockquote>Police forces ignored repeated reports, criminalized victims instead of perpetrators, destroyed evidence, and allowed known rapists to walk free on bail. Social services undermined protective parents, placed children in trafficking hubs inside children&#8217;s homes, closed cases despite clear indicators of exploitation, and retaliated against whistleblowers. 
The NHS recorded genital injuries, multiple sexually transmitted infections in children as young as 13, pregnancies caused by rape and suicide attempts, yet discharged victims back to their abusers without safeguarding referrals or trauma care. Schools observed older men collecting girls at the gates, heard disclosures of rape on school premises, and responded by excluding victims rather than protecting them.</blockquote>
The report unsurprisingly concludes that the perpetrators are overwhelmingly from Pakistani, Muslim, and other Muslim backgrounds. It states:
<blockquote>Perpetrators from Pakistani, Muslim, and other Muslim backgrounds operated under an honor- and shame-based clan code that treated non-Muslim girls, especially white working class girls, as property available for sexual use. This pattern was reinforced by eight theological and legal aspects of Islam. These include the doctrine of Muslim superiority drawn from Quranic verses that position Muslims at the top with a duty to correct non-believers. 
The gang members’ justification for their crimes can be found in the Islamic principle of loyalty and disavowal &#8230; It demands enmity toward non-Muslims, the superiority of men over women, forced marriage combined with the absence of any fixed minimum age of consent, the perception of female sexuality as inherently dangerous, a system of sex slavery that authorizes sexual relations with non-Muslim captives, and a religiously sanctioned social hierarchy that subjugates conquered non-Muslims.</blockquote>
These have been major problems throughout the Muslim Middle East and all over the world, including Western areas that have imported this stuff. There are people claiming that the report contains unverified allegations and exaggerations, but we don&#8217;t need that report to know what&#8217;s already been investigated. What happened in Rotherham affected over a thousand girls and involved legitimately dozens to hundreds of people; a Muslim grooming gang that was, in fact, targeting sexually vulnerable minors. That happened.

The police and the journalism experts knew about it, and they admit they knew about it. The BBC did a full documentary on this a few years back, in which one of the journalists who eventually came forward to report on it admitted that, in the early 2000s, he was afraid to report on what was happening in Rotherham because he feared it would lead to anti-immigration sentiment.
In other words, he was more worried about the supposed racism that might spring up in the wake of Muslim grooming gangs than about the Muslim grooming gangs themselves. Eventually, he realized that he was doing something terrible and came forward and reported on it.
But there were officers, whistleblowers, who were put to the side for years because of politically correct concerns about all of this.
Not everyone comes from the same culture, and not everyone thinks the same. The biggest problem for the West — and it is a constant problem — is a projection of our own mindset onto other civilizations, other religions, and other areas of the world.
It is not true. It is stupid, and it leads us to make concessions to groups of people who see our concessions as weakness and see our systems as ripe for exploitation.
That is true whether you are talking about immigration programs or whether you are talking about nuclear programs. If you&#8217;re talking about immigration programs, the idea that anyone can be assimilated because “everyone in their heart is a reasonable person simply seeking a better material life” is untrue. It is verifiably false.
This is why importing vast numbers of people from cultures that do not like the West is not only a foolish move, but it is a highly dangerous move, and it may be too late for the U.K. to do anything about it.
We&#8217;re going to find out. The real political conflict in the U.K. is all about immigration, just as it has been for years in Hungary, Italy, Denmark, and a wide variety of other European countries.
The police investigated. They found actual connections. There are no conspiracy theories here. This was a reality. There is verifiable, verified evidence across a wide variety of cases and actual criminal convictions.
Now take that internationally.
The attempt to project rationality on two groups that are utterly unlike the United States or Europe is foolish. Pretending that the Iranian regime is like the U.S. and therefore subject to normal political considerations is a category error. Putting them even in the same category as Venezuela is a category error.
Venezuela is a communist secularist regime. Their chief goal is to ensure that they remain in power. That means that if you choke them off economically, they might do some of the things that you want in order to remain in power.
But when it comes to the Iranian government, they are more willing to sacrifice their entire body politic and kill everyone than they are willing to make concessions to the United States that subjugate their millenarian impulses.
The biggest mistake the West makes is assuming that everyone thinks like them. That’s why the West imports people who don&#8217;t like them. It&#8217;s why the West tolerates enclaves of people who don&#8217;t like them. It&#8217;s why the West refuses to prosecute people who don&#8217;t like them.
That&#8217;s how you end up with horrible scandals.
Like the grooming gang case over in Great Britain.

The UK-based cosmetics brand Lush Cosmetics is all in for trans rights. But some window art at a local store has drawn the ire of breast cancer survivors, who say glorifying voluntary “gender affirming” mastectomies is just wrong.
The photo was posted earlier this month on the Facebook page “<a href="https://www.facebook.com/chelmsfordforyou">Chelmsford for You</a>,” which is dedicated to the historic city about 30 miles north of London. It was one of several store murals meant to celebrate Pride month ahead of the Essex Pride celebration on June 20. Among the expected rainbows, however, the Lush mural stood out. 
It features a tiger with the signature trans flag inspired pink and baby blue stripes, plus pink mastectomy scars. It includes text that says, “Proud of my stripes.” The Facebook account noted that the design was created by queer artist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/your_pal_bucky/">Bucky Ringsell</a>.
The responses online were very negative.
“Ugh. This is DISGUSTING,” one reaction said. “Teenage girls love to shop in your stores and here you are happily encouraging them to CUT OFF THEIR HEALTHY BREASTS in the name of trans pride. This is beyond repulsive. It&#8217;s dangerous and sick. No parent should allow their child near your stores.”

<script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Several breast cancer survivors also weighed in on the transgender propaganda masquerading as “art.”
“As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your ‘Proud of My Stripes’ window display,” London-based journalist Janet Murray <a href="https://x.com/jan_murray/status/2066140253430161807">wrote</a> in an open letter to Chelmsford city council.
“I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal,” the post continued. “Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated. They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive.”
Murray said she’s not anti-trans and that it’s a “personal choice,” but says she still takes offense to the window display.
“I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer &#8211; and for their families &#8211; when I say this: Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering,” she added. “Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating.”
She concluded by demanding that the mural be removed, a sentiment echoed by several others.
“Ditto. This is an insult to millions of women who lost their breasts to cancer,” former professional tennis player Martina Navratilova <a href="https://x.com/martina/status/2066168892502761819?s=43">wrote</a> in response to Murray’s letter. 
Lush Cosmetics has a history of fervent LGBT activism. Last fall, the company partnered with the activist group TransActual to create a 24-page illustrated book titled “Dream vs. Reality: creating a world where trans people are safe.” The company also released a pink, blue, and white “Liberation bath bomb” to raise money for trans causes. 
A <a href="https://weare.lush.com/press-releases/lush-partners-with-trans-led-groups-to-stand-up-for-trans-rights/">statement</a> at the time said, “This campaign comes from the heart of the business. Requested by our staff and led by our incredible campaign partners, it comes at a time where positive trans representation is needed to counterpoint some of the toxic narratives that have been shaping public discourse. We hope that the vision presented in this campaign becomes reality and helps to shape a world we can all be proud of.”
Lush Cosmetics did not immediately respond to The Daily Wire’s request for comment on backlash over the image.

President Donald Trump arrived in France on Monday for the Group of Seven (G7) summit, where he is expected to hold a series of high-profile meetings against the backdrop of a newly announced agreement with Iran, an Ebola outbreak, ongoing fighting in Ukraine, and renewed disputes with several European allies.
Shortly before his first meeting, Trump signaled tensions with some members, posting a sharp critique of some European countries’ immigration policies. 
&#8220;Sadly, if you import people from Third World Countries, you quickly become a Third World Country — And there&#8217;s not a thing you can do about it. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116754288530173924">wrote</a>.
Trump has frequently criticized several European governments over mass migration and border security, including G7 members France and the United Kingdom. 
Trump&#8217;s first major bilateral meeting will be with French President Emmanuel Macron Monday before joining fellow G7 leaders for the summit&#8217;s opening events in Evian-les-Bains, a resort spa town on the shores of Lake Geneva near the Swiss border.
Over the next three days, Trump is scheduled to hold bilateral meetings with Macron, Qatari Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. 
Trump will also join fellow G7 leaders and invited guests, including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, for a series of working sessions focused on Ukraine, the Middle East, economic development, and global trade before concluding the trip on Wednesday.
The summit comes at a pivotal moment for the international community, with Trump announcing that a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Iran has been reached and Vice President JD Vance announcing he will attend a signing ceremony in Switzerland on Friday. In a phone interview with Fox News, Vance said President Trump may also make an appearance, pending logistical planning.
&#8220;I certainly plan to be there. It&#8217;s possible the president himself could be there,&#8221; Vance said. &#8220;We got a lot of work to do, but a very big win for the American people tonight.&#8221;
On Sunday evening, Trump announced that negotiators had finalized a long-sought agreement with Iran that would allow for the immediate reopening of the critical shipping lane.
&#8220;The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all!&#8221; Trump wrote on Truth Social.
The precise terms of the agreement remain unclear, particularly regarding Iran&#8217;s nuclear program. According to The New York Times, Trump suggested in an interview on Sunday that he could accept a deal under which Iran suspends uranium enrichment for 15 years.
Such a provision would mark a significant shift from the administration&#8217;s previously stated position. As recently as April 8, Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116368825638596650">declared</a> on Truth Social that there would be &#8220;no enrichment of Uranium.”
The fallout from the Iran conflict and the newly announced agreement with Tehran is likely to loom large over discussions at the G7, particularly after tensions flared between Trump and several member states that declined his calls to participate in efforts to secure the Strait of Hormuz and instead criticized the U.S. military operation.
Trump publicly expressed frustration with the United Kingdom for its reluctance to become involved, blasted France after officials criticized the strikes, said Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni lacked courage, and lashed out at German Chancellor Friedrich Merz after the German leader suggested Iran had “humiliated” the United States.
“The Chancellor of Germany, Friedrich Merz, thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about!” Trump wrote on Truth <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/116483733181582907">Social</a>.
Following the dispute, Trump announced the withdrawal of thousands of U.S. troops from Germany, though part of that move was later offset by deployments to Poland.
France, which holds the current G7 presidency, is seeking areas of cooperation to cool tensions. According to <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2026/06/14/trump-g7-iran-ukraine-ebola-00960717?utm_content=politico/magazine/Politics&amp;utm_source=flipboard">Politico</a>, Macron plans to pursue consensus on critical mineral supply chains, cancer research, child online safety, international development, social impact investing, and efforts to reduce investment risks in developing nations.
The war in Ukraine will also be a central focus of the summit. Zelensky is expected to attend as Kyiv is making notable territorial gains against Russia, but is seeking more U.S. missiles.

I love a good intra-right-wing philosophical debate, and last week brought us one with the banning of Cenk Uygur and Hasan Piker from the United Kingdom.
Piker and Uygur were slated to speak at an SXSW London when the British Home Office suddenly revoked their visas. Their reasoning was that it would &#8220;not be conducive to the public good&#8221; for them to enter the country.
The radical pair instantly did what people like them always do. They blamed Israel, despite the fact that right-wing influencers who are pro-Israel have also been recently banned, and that the U.K. government is openly hostile to the Jewish state.
That led a number of right-of-center intellectuals, some of whom I deeply respect, to argue that the ban was folly. Both the Free Press and National Review editorial boards published pieces criticizing the ban on both pragmatic and philosophical grounds, asserting that the bans would both foster more anti-Israel sentiment and were also a betrayal of free speech and classical liberalism. Several other notable conservatives made similar arguments, including that a &#8220;confident&#8221; civilization wouldn&#8217;t need to do this.
But why should the U.K., Europe, or perhaps even the entire West be confident right now?
The entire continent is a shell of itself by any conceivable metric. Militarily impotent, economically depressed, and morally bankrupt, Western Europe is simply not in a position to be taking for granted that people will see radicalism for what it is when exposed to it.
Only a small minority of young Europeans say they are willing to fight and die for their country. Radical Islamism is becoming more prevalent by the day. Europe needs to be on a defensive posture, and that means fighting back against the forces that seek to destroy it by any means necessary, not being open to a good clean debate for the future of humanity.
The principled case for letting the pair travel is that liberalism dictates such. But Piker and Uygur are not British. We&#8217;ve seen similar arguments play out in the United States during the second Trump administration, about how to extend rights to non-citizens that we all agree citizens do have.
I am not a constitutional lawyer, so I won&#8217;t weigh in on the American legality, and I&#8217;m not a scholar of the British legal system either, so I won&#8217;t opine on Uygur and Piker&#8217;s legal rights across the pond, because I don&#8217;t know. What I will say is that I see no reason to extend the full charities of Western liberalism to foreigners who wish to destroy it.
This is the right&#8217;s version of suicidal empathy. Being a free speech absolutist comes from a good place. And within our own borders with our own people, it is necessary. But there&#8217;s no compelling reason a society must let in outsiders, with no stake in its fortune, to interlope, spread the seeds of destruction, and then go back where they came from, even from a classically liberal viewpoint.
The strongest argument comes from the pragmatists. Rich Lowry <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/2026/06/the-u-k-s-dumb-exclusion-of-left-wing-influencers/">makes a version of this case</a>, arguing that the ban is counterproductive because it raises the profile of the offenders in the U.K. and gives them an opportunity to clownishly blame Israel for it.
Lowry makes the good points that the British Home Office is run by a critic of Israel, the country is run by a left-wing government, and the country itself is profoundly anti-Zionist at this point, so of course it&#8217;s silly to blame Israel. That is all true, which is why I come to the opposite conclusion.
The suggestion that this ban is going to make more people aware of the dunce duo, and thus more likely to subscribe to their ideas, falls flat when they are already aligned with the majority. The case that it gives them an opportunity to falsely blame Israel falls flat because the case is so facially absurd.
Rather, the prevailing takeaway from this decision is that two destructive provocateurs were made to face consequences for their actions. That is all too rare today, and it&#8217;s about time that a Western government stood up for itself.

We Don’t Need Open Borders For Bad Ideas, Actually

On Thursday, the U.S. State Department sent a warning to the United Kingdom with regard to the tragic events in the death of Henry Nowak, warning against “two-tiered” policing.
“Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline. They must be rejected across the West,” the State Department wrote on X. “The United States sends our condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and the people of the United Kingdom at this troubling time.”
Henry Nowak, 18, a first-generation university student studying accounting and finance at Southampton University, was walking home alone after a night out on December 3, 2025, when he crossed paths with Vickrum Digwa, 23, a Sikh man who was carrying a large ceremonial dagger on his belt. There was a brief exchange in which Nowak asked if Digwa was &#8220;a bad man&#8221; after noticing the visible blade. The exchange then escalated into a confrontation, and Digwa stabbed Nowak four times, including once through the chest, piercing his lung. Over two pints of blood pooled in Nowak&#8217;s chest cavity.
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
After the attack, Digwa told police that Nowak had racially abused him and that he had acted in self-defense. Officers arrived to find Nowak on the ground. &#8220;I&#8217;ve been stabbed,&#8221; Nowak told them. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think you have, mate,&#8221; an officer replied. He was handcuffed, read his rights, and informed he was under arrest for assault. He lost consciousness shortly after. First responders attempted CPR, but he was pronounced dead at 12:37 a.m.
At trial, the jury rejected Digwa&#8217;s self-defense and racism claims entirely. Sentencing Judge William Mousley was s<a href="https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Digwa-Final-Sentencing-Remarks.pdf">cathing</a>, calling Digwa&#8217;s story &#8220;wicked lies&#8221; and finding that Nowak had said nothing racist. Digwa filmed Nowak as he lay dying, directed his mother to remove the murder weapon from the scene, and whispered to his brother in a police van — unaware they were being recorded — that he had stabbed Henry three times and that self-defense would fall apart if cameras existed in the area. He was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 21 years.
Nowak&#8217;s father, Mark, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/protests-erupt-as-footage-shows-cops-ignored-dying-teens-cries-for-help">said</a> his son &#8220;did not die with dignity&#8221; — that he was treated as a criminal while his killer was believed on the spot.
Body camera footage released after the conviction confirmed the family&#8217;s account. Within days, hundreds of protesters gathered outside a Southampton police station, chanting &#8220;I can&#8217;t breathe&#8221; and carrying photographs of Nowak. Riot police blocked streets. Objects were thrown. Reform U.K. leader Nigel Farage called the killing evidence of &#8220;two-tiered&#8221; policing, and Elon Musk amplified the case globally. Prime Minister Keir Starmer acknowledged the footage raised &#8220;serious questions.&#8221;

State Department Slams U.K.’s ‘Two-Tiered Policing’ As Outrage Grows Over Henry Nowak Killing

It&#8217;s a deliberate function of our broken educational system that most people don&#8217;t know this, but it&#8217;s true: White people have been systematically subjugated and discriminated against many, many times throughout history. And very often, whites have rebelled against this subjugation — and won. 
From the American and European response to the Barbary Slave Trade, to the Greeks&#8217; revolt against the Ottomans, you&#8217;ll find plenty of examples of white people who have freed themselves from systemic, targeted oppression at the hands of barbarians. 
But in history class, instead of going into any great detail on this point, you&#8217;re taught about all the heroic, non-white indigenous folks who defeated the evil white colonial powers that ruled over them. That&#8217;s how all the textbooks are written. It&#8217;s a technique that&#8217;s intended to stifle any revolutionary sentiment among white people in the West, as their civil liberties — and even their lives — are taken away, one by one. 
Based on the events that have taken place in Britain in the past 24 hours, this technique does not appear to be as effective anymore. For the first time in memory, white people are organizing in the streets — in large numbers — to advance their own interests. They saw what happened to first-year university student Henry Nowak, who was butchered in the street by a foreigner — like so many other innocent whites living in Britain. 
They saw how the police handcuffed Nowak and mocked him as the life drained from his body, all because the murderous barbarian claimed that Nowak had been &#8220;racist.&#8221; They saw how the police in Britain will strip you of your rights and your dignity if they believe you harbor any resentment whatsoever towards the foreign hordes who are destroying your country. 
They saw how the killer&#8217;s family conspired to hide the evidence and concoct a false claim of self-defense — without any remorse whatsoever, only tribal loyalty. And having seen all of this — just the latest in a long string of executions, systemic injustice and humiliation that whites have been forced to endure in Britain for the past several decades — the indigenous people of the UK are finally rising up. They are taking back their own country.

If anyone on the Left had an ounce of self-respect or felt any desire to have a coherent and principled belief system, they&#8217;d be lining up to support these brave indigenous folks as they protest the oppression of the state. 
These white people have lived in Britain going back generations, from the time the country was founded. And the foreign colonizers, who arrived 15 minutes ago, are replacing them, and sometimes even slaughtering them in the streets. 
The replacement of the UK’s indigenous population is very real and very purposeful. In 1980, only about 6% of the country’s population was foreign-born. Now it’s more than three times that number. Currently, about 80% of the UK is white, which sounds like a large majority. But consider that 40 years ago, it was 97 or 98% white. 
These kinds of demographic transformations don’t happen by accident. They are facilitated, encouraged, and funded. They are, yes, the result of a deliberate conspiracy to take predominantly and historically white countries and make them less white. It’s the kind of effort that, if done to literally any other race or ethnicity, would be immediately seen by everyone as evil, even genocidal. 
White people indeed are, after all, the indigenous people of the UK. I would like to assume that all of the Ivy League professors and CNN anchors would agree when I say that the native people of the UK deserve to have their homeland back. That we must respect indigenous culture and identity, and acknowledge the deep and enduring connection that the native communities of the UK maintain with their ancestral homeland, affirming and honoring their rights and heritage. 
We must support decolonization efforts and acknowledge the historical harms inflicted on the Native peoples of the UK and the broader indigenous community all across Western Europe and the entire Anglosphere. Isn’t this how it’s done? These are all the buzzwords, right? They actually apply in this case. 
The indigenous peoples of the UK are being replaced, colonized, and deliberately and systematically disadvantaged and discriminated against by their government, even to the point of white men getting handcuffed and left to die on the pavement after they’re butchered in the street by a crazed immigrant who was granted a special ethnic exemption from the law, allowing him to carry a knife in the first place. 
This sounds like an attack on the rights of indigenous people. In fact, call me crazy, it sounds like a much more serious attack on indigenous rights than calling a football team “The Redskins.” And yet, shockingly, nobody on the Left will talk about it that way. There will be no land acknowledgments performed for the indigenous people of Western Europe. That’s for certain. 
I don’t mean to suggest, for the record, that the modern colonization of Western Europe by the third world, and the replacement of its indigenous population, is exactly analogous to the arrival of Europeans to places occupied by various native tribes, and the eventual conquest of those lands. 
These are not the same, admittedly. They aren’t the same because the third-world colonization of the West is infinitely worse than the colonization of native tribes by Western powers. In the latter case, Europeans were bringing civilization into uncivilized lands. They were building an advanced, superior civilization out of an untamed wilderness, previously occupied by disconnected, warring tribes of stone-age primitives. 
In the modern case, third-world immigrants are being imported into advanced civilizations and making them less civilized. They aren’t building anything from scratch or taming any wilderness. They are taking advantage of systems and benefits and entitlements already in place. In the old days, to colonize a place was to build a coherent civilization on top of it. These days, to colonize is to deconstruct a coherent civilization that has already been built. One is an act of construction. The other an act of destruction. 
Maybe you can forgive these left-wing voices for their total silence in this particular case. After all, in modern-day Britain, scenes like the ones we just watched are unheard of. Britain has seen riots over climate change, mass migration, George Floyd, various soccer events, Brexit, and so on. But there has never been a mass protest, much less a riot, over the systemic anti-white discrimination that has taken hold in Britain, and all across the West. 
In Britain, comedians are arrested for making &#8220;anti-trans jokes.&#8221; They used drones to hunt down people walking alone in the countryside during the COVID lockdowns. They worship state-run healthcare, even though the waiting list for routine hospital care has several million people on it. All this to say, Britain is one of the most dysfunctional, left-wing countries on the planet. It&#8217;s the last place you&#8217;d expect to see an uprising against anti-white discrimination. But at a certain point, even whites in Britain simply can&#8217;t take it anymore. They can&#8217;t take the brutality and the vengefulness that underlies the treatment of innocent white men, women, and children. And then they fight back.
To be very clear: I don&#8217;t condone rioting. No one should condone rioting. Throwing bricks and garbage cans at police officers — or &#8220;wheelie bins,&#8221; as they&#8217;re called in Britain — is wrong. Of course there’s a meme going around of a British police officer saying, “I got hit in the head with a bin” and someone responding, “I don’t think you have, mate,” which I admit is absolute gold. But even so, rioting doesn&#8217;t accomplish anything and is immoral. What Britons need to do is exactly what we&#8217;ve done in the United States, which is to elect a government that begins mass deportations and wages war on anti-white discrimination. The government also needs to terminate every police officer who targets white people because of their skin color or political beliefs, starting with the officers who attacked protesters for no reason yesterday.

It&#8217;s reminiscent of the police officers who beat up Canadians during the trucker protests. Truck drivers made their way to the capital of Canada, where they peacefully assembled. And the government responded by attacking them. We&#8217;re seeing the same thing right now in Britain, as the authorities are clearly caught off-guard by these demonstrations.
But none of this should surprise anyone. Even the violence. It’s completely predictable. Unlike the BLM riots, which were premised on a series of lies — including the lie that Derek Chauvin killed George Floyd, as well as the lie that the police routinely kill unarmed black men — the unrest in Britain right now stems from something real and undeniable. 
This is what happens when you enshrine racial discrimination into law, which is what the UK did in 2010, when they passed the so-called &#8220;Equality Act.&#8221; The law — as with many laws — did the exact opposite of what the name would suggest. It provided that organizations can engage in &#8220;positive action&#8221; for the benefit of &#8220;underrepresented groups.&#8221; Immediately, every major employer in the country — including police departments, the Air Force, and everyone else — began fast-tracking non-white candidates. 
This is an unsustainable state of affairs, obviously, but the trendline is going exactly in the right direction. British men are stepping up and defending their children from foreign barbarians. They&#8217;re explicitly calling out their anti-white government. 
A jury in South Carolina just acquitted an Asian convenience store owner who was defending himself against a black attacker — something that wouldn&#8217;t have happened just six years ago. Ghoulish mobs, cheering for a thug who stabbed a white boy to death for no reason, are being met with peaceful white demonstrators honoring the life of Austin Metcalf — and condemning the hatred of whites that led to his death. These are signs of progress — signs that we&#8217;ve badly needed to see, for a very long time. A large, oppressed group of people has decided that they&#8217;ve had enough.
It&#8217;s maybe a simplistic point, but it&#8217;s true: Highly motivated groups of people can accomplish great things. That&#8217;s how history is made. And right now, it&#8217;s the Anglos&#8217; turn to make history, as they have so many times, in so many ways, in the past.
It took decades for anti-white discrimination to become a fundamental part of Western society, but it doesn&#8217;t take much time to put an end to it. After all, the West has the home-field advantage. We&#8217;re on our own territory. We created the customs and legal norms and infrastructure that these invaders are now abusing for their own ends. All we have to do now is exactly what white people are doing from Southampton to South Carolina: We have to stop participating in our own destruction, and for the first time in memory, we have to defend what our ancestors built.

Far Right Groups Encourage Protest Over Death Of Henry Nowak

This Murder Could Change The Course Of History

Vickrum Digwa

Protesters took to the streets in the United Kingdom this Tuesday after police body camera footage showed officers handcuffing 18-year-old Henry Nowak even as he lay dying from stab wounds inflicted by a man who&#8217;d falsely accused him of racism.
The demonstrations came just one day after 23-year-old Vickrum Digwa was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/man-who-stabbed-teen-to-death-over-bogus-racism-claim-learns-his-fate?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Man+Who+Stabbed+Teen+To+Death+Over+Bogus+Racism+Claim+Learns+His+Fate">sentenced to life in prison</a> — with a minimum term of 21 years — for murdering Nowak in Southampton last December. The case has ignited a national debate over policing, race, immigration, and a growing tendency among British authorities to give greater credence to allegations of racism than to evidence unfolding in front of them.
According to court findings, Digwa stabbed Nowak with a large ceremonial blade he carried under an exemption granted to Sikhs. After the attack, Digwa repeatedly told police that Nowak had racially abused him and that he had acted in self-defense. <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cq8pn9ng5zlo">Body camera footage</a> released following Digwa&#8217;s conviction shows officers arriving at the scene and accepting the accusation as Nowak lay bleeding on the ground.

&#8220;I&#8217;ve been stabbed,&#8221; Nowak can be heard telling officers.
&#8220;I don&#8217;t think you have, mate,&#8221; one officer responds. Nowak repeatedly told officers that he could not breathe. He was handcuffed and informed he was under arrest for assault before eventually losing consciousness. Police later removed the handcuffs and attempted CPR, but Nowak died shortly afterward.
During sentencing, Judge William Mousley said Digwa falsely claimed that Nowak had called him a racial slur. The court also heard that Digwa&#8217;s mother helped conceal evidence after the killing.
Nowak&#8217;s father, Mark Nowak, delivered an emotional statement after the sentencing, accusing police of treating his son as a criminal instead of a victim.
&#8220;Henry did not die with dignity,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Instead of being treated as a dying victim, police formally arrested Henry for assault and read him his rights.&#8221; He contrasted his son&#8217;s treatment with that of Digwa, who he said was immediately believed by authorities despite being the individual responsible for the stabbing.
The footage has triggered a fierce political backlash, with Reform UK leader Nigel Farage <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/02/world/europe/henry-nowak-murder-uk-stabbing.html">arguing</a> that the case demonstrated what he called a &#8220;two-tiered&#8221; system of policing and claimed officers were more concerned about accusations of racism than protecting a dying white teenager.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer acknowledged that the footage raised &#8220;serious questions&#8221; about police conduct and specifically questioned how allegations of racism may have influenced officers&#8217; decisions at the scene. British Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood described the footage as &#8220;disturbing and tragic&#8221; but urged the public not to allow the case to inflame tensions between communities. She warned that misinformation and threats directed at police officers were worsening an already volatile situation.
Those warnings did little to calm public anger.
Hundreds of demonstrators gathered outside a Southampton police station Tuesday, chanting &#8220;I can&#8217;t breathe&#8221; and &#8220;shame on you.&#8221; By evening, the crowd had grown substantially as protesters marched through the city carrying British flags and photographs of Nowak. Officers in riot gear blocked access to parts of the city, some protesters threw objects at police.

Anti-immigration activist Tommy Robinson addressed protesters, while Elon Musk drew attention to the case online and indicated support for efforts to pursue legal action over the police response. The Independent Office for Police Conduct, Britain&#8217;s police watchdog, is investigating the actions of officers who responded to the stabbing. Hampshire Police has already <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/uk-police-under-pressure-after-dying-student-was-handcuffed-2026-06-02/">apologized</a>, and one officer involved in the incident has since resigned.
For many, however, the central question remains unresolved: why officers appeared willing to accept an unverified accusation of racism while dismissing a teenager&#8217;s repeated pleas that he had been stabbed. That question now sits at the center of one of Britain&#8217;s most politically explosive criminal cases in recent years.

Protests Erupt As Footage Shows Cops Ignored Dying Teen’s Cries For Help

Crime

A Sikh man who stabbed an innocent teen to death in the United Kingdom over a bogus racism claim was convicted on Monday and sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 21 years.
Vickrum Digwa killed 18-year-old Henry Nowak on December 3, 2025, as Nowak was walking back to his dorm in Southampton — a city about 80 miles southwest of London. Nowak was handcuffed by authorities as he lay dying on the ground over a bogus racism claim made by his murderer.
While Britain has strict laws on carrying knives in public, Digwa was permitted to carry his &#8220;ceremonial blade&#8221; because of his Sikh heritage.

When police first arrived on scene that December night, Digwa told authorities Nowak racially abused him and Digwa acted in self-defense. Incredibly, authorities arrested the bloodied, dying teen as he was bleeding on the ground even though Nowak reportedly told them he had been stabbed and couldn&#8217;t breathe.
Nowak was told he was under arrest for assault just before he died.

According to sentencing remarks from Judge William Mousley, Digwa falsely told authorities that the teen had called him a &#8220;Paki.&#8221; While Nowak was dying, Digwa and his brother reiterated lies against Nowak and directed their mother to take the murder weapon, sheath, and belt away — and she obeyed.
Judge Mousley said Nowak was handcuffed on the ground &#8220;before his condition further deteriorated and the arresting officer began CPR.&#8221;
Outside the courthouse, Nowak&#8217;s father, Mark Nowak, recalled his son&#8217;s devastating murder and the inhumane treatment he received by authorities.
&#8220;Henry had been stabbed multiple times, and as his chest filled with blood, he tried to escape,” Mark Nowak said. “He was chased, abused, and filmed by Vickrum Digwa and others.&#8221;
&#8220;When police arrived, Henry was lying on the floor, barely able to sit up and plainly in severe medical distress. With his final words, he told officers that he could not breathe. He told them he had been stabbed,&#8221; he said. &#8220;In fact, Henry told officers that he could not breathe nine times. He told them he had been stabbed four times. The response from one officer was, &#8216;I don&#8217;t think you have, mate.'&#8221;
&#8220;The police have said they were misled by the murderer and that the scene when they arrived was complex,&#8221; Mark Nowak continued. &#8220;Unfortunately, it seems to us the truth is much simpler. The police were told by our son himself and by a member of the public who called 999 that they heard someone shout that they had been stabbed. But the police did not believe them.&#8221;
&#8220;Henry was pulled across the gravel, his hands forced behind his back, and he was placed in handcuffs,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Instead of being treated as a dying victim, police formally arrested Henry for assault and read him his rights. That was the last thing he heard.&#8221;
&#8220;Henry did not die with dignity. He did not die with the care he deserved. He lost consciousness before anyone believed him,&#8221; Mark Nowak added. “Henry should not have died on the streets of Southampton in police custody. The way he was treated was inhumane and degrading. His murderer, however, was afforded decency.&#8221;
Digwa, he said, &#8220;was believed; he was not handcuffed when arrested, he was not handcuffed when transported to the police station &#8212; as far as we understand, he was never handcuffed at all. &#8230; Police even took him to the kitchen so he could choose his food.&#8221;
&#8220;The contrast is unbearable,&#8221; Mark Nowak added.

Man Who Stabbed Teen To Death Over Bogus Racism Claim Learns His Fate

Teen Arrested While Dying On Ground Over Bogus ‘Racism’ Claim By Murderer

Murder

A planned production of “Dreamgirls” will have to be canceled after the owners pulled the rights because too many white actors were cast in the show.
According to <a href="https://www.thetimes.com/culture/theatre-dance/article/urlschool-dreamgirls-show-banned-tfnfvqldv">The Times of London</a>, Gillian Banks Theatre School in Yorkshire was granted permission to stage &#8220;Dreamgirls&#8221; by the agency that manages the show&#8217;s rights. But that permission was revoked after it was discovered that only one black actor would be participating.
The musical was written by Tom Eyen and Henry Krieger in 1981 and opened that same year at the Imperial Theater on Broadway. It was nominated for 13 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, and won six. It became even more popular following the release of the 2006 film adaptation starring Beyoncé. 
The storyline follows a fictional group of black female singers, the Dreamettes, on their path to superstardom beginning in the 1960s.
The theater school responded to the controversy, defending their casting by saying they were open to a “diverse” cast but did not have enough black actors audition.
“We are just a little dance school in one of the most deprived areas of Rotherham trying to give experiences to our students on a very small scale,” it said, per The Times.
The school reportedly only has around 200 students and said there was “never any intention to ‘whitewash’ this production.” Gillian Banks Theatre School had already started selling tickets when the permission to perform was revoked.
Concord wrote in a letter to the school, “Dreamgirls is a show about a time in black American music history when rhythm and blues blended with other styles of popular music, creating a new American sound.”
“It tells the story of the Dreamettes and celebrates their rise to fame, echoing similar trajectories of iconic black girl and boy groups of the time like the Supremes, the Marvelettes, the Temptations and the Shirelles. Your production should be appropriately cast to represent and reflect these artists and their history.”
This update comes as the topic of race-swapping traditionally white characters continues to make headlines. The upcoming Christopher Nolan epic, “The Odyssey,” has drawn criticism for the casting of Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy, among other stylistic choices. 
It was also just announced that actress Quinta Brunson will star as Betty Boop in an upcoming film adaptation. Disney’s big flop “Snow White” included Colombian actress Rachel Zegler in the titular role despite her not physically resembling the character’s description in literature.

A British university student collapsed and died after police initially handcuffed him instead of the man accused of stabbing him, according to reports and court testimony.
Finance student Henry Nowak, 18, was stabbed with an eight-inch ceremonial Sikh &#8220;shastar&#8221; blade in London after an encounter with Vikrum Digwa, 23, who is on trial for murder. Digwa told police that Nowak was a “drunken man” who “racially abused and attacked” him, <a href="https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-15818111/Sikh-man-stabbed-18-year-old-university-student-death-eight-inch-ceremonial-knife-claiming-hed-racially-abused-court-hears.html?ns_mchannel=rss&amp;ns_campaign=1490&amp;ito=social-twitter_mailonline">according</a> to the Daily Mail.
Police initially handcuffed Nowak after the December 2023 incident. Shortly after, he collapsed, prompting officers to begin emergency first aid. Despite efforts to save him, including a doctor flown in by helicopter, Nowak succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at 12:37 am. 
Digwa is now on trial alongside his mother, who is accused of assisting her son after Nowak’s stabbing. 
Prosecutor Nicholas Lobbenberg rejected Digwa&#8217;s self-defense claim, telling jurors that “Henry drowned in his own blood&#8221; after the knife pierced his lung. He added that Digwa claimed he could not “recall exactly how the fatal wound came to be inflicted.”
Much of the incident was captured on video by Nowak before he died and is now being used as evidence in court. 
Nowak, who had been completing his first term studying accountancy and finance at Southampton University, had been out with friends before he was attacked. On his way home, he recorded Snapchat videos shortly before crossing paths with Digwa.
In one video shown in court, Digwa can allegedly be heard saying, “I am a bad man.” The footage abruptly cuts off when Nowak responds, “Are you a b….” 
Nowak sustained four stab wounds, including the one that punctured his lung. 
Police said after the fatal stabbing, Digwa’s mother, brother, and father arrived on the scene. Officers placed Digwa and his brother inside a police vehicle, where they said they overheard Digwa admit to the stabbing. 
Luddenberg told jurors that Digwa “told his brother he stabbed Henry three times. He didn’t mention racism or self-defense.” 
Digwa’s defense argued that he carried the knife for religious reasons. The trial is still underway.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer said Friday he would not resign from Downing Street after his Left-wing Labour Party suffered devastating losses in local elections across the country, while the Right-wing party led by Trump ally Nigel Farage made sweeping gains.
Early results suggest British voters up and down the country have delivered a scathing rebuke of Keir Starmer, who led Labour to a landslide general election victory in the summer of 2024.
Starmer’s approval ratings have plunged amid voter anger over mass migration, <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/business/2026/apr/22/uk-inflation-rises-soaring-fuel-prices-iran-war">stubborn inflation</a>, and strains on the National Health Service. Public opinion polls show he&#8217;s the <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/30/uk/keir-starmer-labour-party-conference-intl">least popular</a> Prime Minister in British history. 
Amid the disastrous results, some Labour members have <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/8958faa6-cbde-499b-8016-b89ef857a22b?syn-25a6b1a6=1">called on Starmer to step down</a>.  Starmer said he&#8217;s not going anywhere.
&#8220;Let me be clear, these are really tough results. I&#8217;m not going to sugarcoat it,&#8221; <a href="https://x.com/SkyNews/status/2052659124173709523?s=20">Starmer told reporters</a>. &#8220;The voters have sent a message about the pace of change, how they want their lives improved. Labour was elected to meet those challenges, and I&#8217;m not going to walk away from those challenges and plunge the country into chaos.&#8221;

In the United Kingdom, voters elect councillors who oversee services such as schools, housing, road maintenance, waste collection, libraries, policing budgets, and local planning decisions. Thursday&#8217;s vote included roughly <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/world/united-kingdom/starmer-labour-reform-farage-uk-election-rcna344013">5,000 local government contests</a> in England, along with races that will shape control of the Welsh and Scottish parliaments.
Reform U.K., England&#8217;s Right-wing party, has won more than 700 council races across the country, <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c1428pev1n0t">according to the BBC.</a> Labour, in distant fourth place, has lost more than 470 races. 
Farage, who has campaigned on restricting immigration and cutting taxes, called the results a &#8220;historic shift in British politics.&#8221; 
“Labour are being wiped out by Reform in many of their most traditional areas, and what you’re going to see later on today is the Conservative Party being wiped out in their heartlands,”<a href="https://x.com/LBC/status/2052731245402964195?s=20"> Mr. Farage said.</a> &#8220;I would honestly say you’re witnessing a historic shift in British politics. This is now the most national of all parties.”

President Donald Trump has repeatedly ripped into Keir Starmer over a range of issues, including his plans to cede control of the Chagos Islands and Starmer&#8217;s initial refusal to grant the United States access to UK military bases for operations related to Operation Epic Fury.
In March, Trump expressed disappointment with the United Kingdom and lashed out at the British leader. 
&#8220;This is not Winston Churchill that we&#8217;re dealing with,&#8221; Trump said of Starmer in the Oval Office. 
As results across the pond pour in, the ascendant Right-wing leader predicts the tides will continue to turn.  
&#8220;I suspect when you see the full results in the red wall, there&#8217;ll be a rebellion,&#8221; Farage said. &#8220;Personally, I&#8217;d be very sad to see the Prime Minister go. I would be very, very sad indeed. He&#8217;s the greatest asset we&#8217;ve got.&#8221;

A judge in the United Kingdom convicted a Christian pastor on Thursday for preaching on one of the Bible’s most well-known verses outside of a hospital that performs abortions. 
Pastor Clive Johnston was fined over $600 by Judge Peter King for preaching on John 3:16 inside a so-called “Safe Access Zone” outside the Causeway Hospital in Coleraine, Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland&#8217;s “Abortion Services (Safe Access Zones) Act” sets up buffer zones outside facilities where abortions are done, restricting protests, sidewalk counseling, or other pro-life activities. 
Johnston was prosecuted after leading an open-air Sunday service outside the Causeway Hospital on July 7, 2024, that did not mention abortion. Prosecutors accused him of attempting to influence a “protected person” or “recklessly” behaving in a way that could influence a person. 
“This is a dark day for Christian freedom,” he said after the conviction. “And yet the buffer zones law is so broad that holding a Sunday service has been found to be a criminal offence. And at 78 years of age I find myself, for the first time, convicted of a crime.”
“I know it was an unusual place to hold an open-air service but that was the point: There shouldn’t be any public spaces in Northern Ireland where you can be prosecuted and convicted simply for preaching the gospel,” he added. 
Video from the day of the open-air service shows a police officer warning Johnston that he may only share the gospel in a &#8216;safe&#8217; chaplaincy room inside the hospital.
“However, if you are reckless as to the effect that they could have on patients, staff, or any protected person, then you may be committing an offense,” the officer said. 
“But while you&#8217;re out here in the safe access zone, any act in that area, which may” dissuade a “protected person” from using a “service” could be an offense, the officer said.

Johnston was supported in his legal defense by The Christian Institute, a United Kingdom-based organization devoted to “upholding the truths of the Bible.” The organization’s director, Ciarán Kelly, said they would help Johnston look at appealing the ruling. 
“Despite assurances to the contrary when this legislation was being considered, we now see that an already controversial and deeply unjust law has now been selectively applied to criminalise gospel preaching,” Kelly said. “If the ruling stands it will represent a shocking new restriction on freedom of religion and freedom of speech so we will be helping Clive to consider the options for appeal.”
Last month, a State Department spokesman <a href="https://www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2026/04/16/us-prosecution-british-pastor-abortion-clinic/">said</a> that the United States was monitoring the case with concern. 
“The UK’s persecution of silent prayer represents not only an egregious violation of the fundamental right to free speech and religious liberty, but also a concerning departure from the shared values that ought to underpin US-UK relations,” a spokesman told The Telegraph.
