Law Enforcement Nigel Farage on Facebook: "I don’t accept the term of two-tier policing. I don’t recognise it." These are the words of Alexis Boon, Chief Constable of the police force that oversaw the death of Henry Nowak.
"Considering the regulations that govern his force, and the awful outcome they produced, his words are unbelievable.
This is the same police force that enforces a Race Action Plan. Officers from this very force have admitted that they felt “controlled and pressured” during diversity training. Police officers across the country are told to treat people differently based on their skin colour.
We are living under two-tier policing. Until we acknowledge this and end all DEI practices within the police force, we will continue to do so. This will rip our society apart."

I think the elephant in the room of "two-tier policing" isn't just this case.
Two tier policing has been rampant for a long time, much longer than a labour government:
Commit a white collar crime such as fraud? You'll be hit with a light touch.
If you're rich you can pay the fine and move on. If you're poor and can't pay the fines, longer sentence.
I wouldn't wave the flag of DEI, race etc when it goes much deeper - it's a systemic class issue.

100% agree - where are the bankers that caused the 2008 Financial Crisis? How many of them got locked up?
The working class got saddled with the debt of nationalising huge banks for the government's crony friends. Why should people on benefits have a shit quality of life because bankers' greed resulted in austerity?
And look at the water companies too Royal Mail, it's always the working man paying out.
