The shocking murder of Henry Nowak has sparked an overdue debate across Western the world about two-tier policing. Many believe that post-BLM hysteria led to a climate of overcorrection and reverse racism. And as a sideline to the truly harrowing details of the Nowak case, the UK in particular is now experiencing an outbreak of two-tier virtue-signalling.
Politicians there had no hesitation about taking a knee for George Floyd, for example.
Official police guidance, as we now know, was updated to eradicate colourblind policing and actively pursue a so-called “equity of outcomes.”
Piers Morgan believes that if you reject identity politics and sincerely believe in the ideal of a colourblind society, then you shouldn’t now be repeating the same mistakes.
The difference, though, is that so many of our politicians and celebrities clearly do believe in performative virtue - as long as it’s their version of it. And not for the first time, they’ve been exposed as raging hypocrites.
He’s joined by political commentator Kaizen Asiedu, former Republican presidential candidate Joe Walsh, political economist Ashok Kumar and Reform UK’s candidate for London Mayor Laila Cunningham to discuss.
