JD Vance blames ‘mass invasion’ of migrants for Henry Nowak’s death
The police watchdog is probing Hampshire Police’s response as U.S. officials accuse Britain of two-tier policing and urge righteous anger.
- Downing Street strongly condemned comments by U.S. Vice President JD Vance, criticizing outside figures for "trying to interfere in our democracy and seeking to stir up division on our streets."
- Vance ignited a major diplomatic row by blaming a "mass invasion of migrants" for the tragic stabbing death of 18-year-old British student Henry Nowak, claiming on X that Nowak would still be alive if Europe had stood its ground.
- The murder has fueled massive local and international tension despite both the victim and his killer being British citizens, as the 23-year-old convict, Vickrum Digwa, is a British-born Sikh man who was sentenced to life in prison this week.
- The incident sparked violent riots in Southampton on Tuesday after body-worn camera footage revealed responding police officers mistakenly handcuffed a dying Nowak and ignored his pleas because Digwa falsely claimed he was the victim of a racist assault.
- Vance’s post follows a broader wave of U.S. political intervention, including a U.S. State Department post condemning "two-tiered policing" as a sign of civilizational decline and previous critical commentary from tech billionaire Elon Musk.
