❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse, laid out the political significance of the murder and wrongful arrest of Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old white student in Southampton, England, as protesters descended on the city.

📺 DETAIL: In a Tuesday interview with Human Events’ Jack Posobiec on Real America’s Voice, Kassam stressed that Nowak’s killing is “the biggest story in the UK right now, full stop,” with a large protest near the family home of his Sikh murderer, Vickrum Digwa, ongoing as of the time of publication. “It’s not just the fact that there was this heinous, brutal, disgusting stabbing that took place, it’s every little detail seems to make it worse—and we’re not even at the end of this whole thing yet,” Kassam said. Notably, the Digwa family called the police rather than an ambulance for Nowak, claiming falsely that he had been racist and denying that he had been stabbed. Officers told Nowak, pleading for an ambulance and saying he could not breathe, that they did not believe he had been stabbed, manhandling him into a pair of handcuffs and reading him his rights. He passed out and died moments later. Kassam emphasized, “Henry Nowak is by no means the first person this has happened to,” noting how differently Nowak’s case has been treated from that of George Floyd, for whom Keir Starmer, now Prime Minister, took the knee in 2020.

💬 KEY QUOTE: “They now and try and tell us Henry Nowak’s death is not political, and it shouldn’t be made political. Henry Nowak’s death was necessarily political. The cultural proposition that is being made in the United Kingdom right now is necessarily political. The way in which the police responded to him, because of the false racism charge levelld at him. The DEI cops were being necessarily political in the way that they dealt with this… This is a political event, it is a political death, and it will be dealt with in the hard arena of politics.” – Raheem Kassam, Editor-in-Chief of The National Pulse.

🎯 IMPACT: “A lot of people in [America] ask me, ‘When will the British lion start to roar again?’ Today,” Kassam predicted, highlighting the protest in Southampton at the city’s central police station, which later moved towards the Digwa family residence, and a Tuesday morning  emergency address by Reform UK leader Nigel Farage, who said the public should react to the scandal with “cold rage.”
