Starmer Says Musk Is Interfering in UK Politics Over Nowak Case
Starmer said Musk’s posts on the murder fueled division as protests and clashes with police spread, while the killer was jailed for at least 21 years.
- On Thursday, Prime Minister Keir Starmer rebuked Elon Musk for "interfering in our politics" and "trying to whip up division" during a visit to York, following the billionaire's social media posts about Henry Nowak's murder.
- Tensions flared after bodycam footage showed 18-year-old Henry Nowak handcuffed by police while dying from stab wounds in Southampton last December, with killer Vickrum Digwa falsely claiming he was the victim of a racist attack.
- Musk amplified the footage to millions, falsely alleging "official police policy requires them to be racist against Whites," while violent protests in Southampton on Tuesday left 11 police officers injured as demonstrators clashed with authorities.
- After meeting Nowak's family on Thursday, Starmer urged calm and backed the Independent Office for Police Conduct investigation, as the grieving family requested the tragedy not be used to "create further division, hatred or tension."
- An inquest into police conduct opens in September 2027 as formal accountability measures proceed, while political figures continue exploiting the case despite government rejection of "two-tier policing" allegations.
