Henry Nowak won’t be the last: JD Vance blames mass migration for UK stabbing, triggers diplomatic row

JD Vance’s scathing remarks on the UK regarding Vikram Digwa’s stabbing have stirred a row.

Vice President JD Vance weighed in on the stabbing of UK student Henry Nowak by Sikh man Vickrum Digwa and blamed mass migration for it. Holding the police and the government liable for the stabbing, after which the victim was handcuffed by the police as Digwa lied that he was racially attacked by Nowak, Vance said he fears that Nowak won’t be the last. Vance’s social media post came a day after the US State Department said two-tiered policing is a glaring symptom of civilizational decline. “Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline,” the department’s official account posted on Thursday. “They must be rejected across the West.”“Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit. His murder is as tragic as it is enraging. He should still be alive today, and he would be if the last few generations of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it,” JD Vance posted.“Henry was far from the first to so needlessly lose his life, and I fear he won’t be the last. Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response—the only response—is righteous anger. One of the most important things the Trump administration has proven to the world is that stopping the flow of mass migration and defending national sovereignty is a matter of political will and leadership. Anything else is an excuse,” the Vice President wrote.“It is because we love the West that we want to preserve it. We love our civilization. We love our country. We love our children. And nobody—nobody—should ever die the way that Henry Nowak died. May God comfort those who loved him, and may God rest his soul,” he added.“Two-tier policing” is a political term used mainly in the UK by critics who argue that police apply laws differently depending on a person’s political views, ethnicity, religion, or social group.As Elon Musk has been continuously posting about the stabbing case on X, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer accused Musk of interfering in UK politics.
