About this episode

The episode examines the murder of Henry Nowak and its broader implications on British society and institutions.

The tragic murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak has sparked outrage across Britain. But the more I looked into the story, the more I realised this is about far more than one horrific crime.I examine the political, cultural, and institutional reaction to Nowak’s death, the growing debate around two-tier policing, and why so many ordinary Britons feel the rules are no longer applied equally. From Parliament to the police, from the media to the cultural establishment, I explore the questions that millions of people are now asking and why so many feel those questions are being ignored.We look at the police response on the night of Henry’s death, the controversy surrounding the Police Race Action Plan, the legacy of George Floyd in Britain, the grooming gangs scandals, and the growing public anger towards institutions that many believe have lost touch with ordinary people. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Our show is independently supported by you, consider signing up to our substack to get added benefits like ad-free and extended episodes here…
