Yesterday Nigel Farage stood up in the House of Commons seeking to introduce a 10 Minute Rule Bill, utilised by Members of the Opposition in Parliament. He was laughed down, heckled at, asked when he would get to the “rivers of blood” bit ala Enoch Powell and, of course, accused of being a Russian patsy. You may well think, well Grimesy, why on earth does this matter? This is Westminster in decline — sneering while Britain grieves.
Then came the news that should have silenced their laughter
Yesterday changed everything. In just 24 hours we learned of a slew of incidents that marked a hammer blow to the morale of the British public. I asked online for the public to say his name after learning that ITV’s flagship news show didn’t mention his alleged murder once: Wayne Broadhurst. A binman. A husband. A local lad who tried to help — murdered on his dog walk. His alleged killer? A 22-year-old Afghan who came here illegally in a lorry, then granted leave to remain by our own government. He has since been charged and a case will take place. No coverage on ITV. No candlelit vigils. No lectures from politicians about ‘the epidemic of violence.’ Just silence.
A 37-year-old man was brutally stabbed to death inside a Lloyds Bank branch in Derby by 47-year-old Haybe Cabdiraxmaan Nur, a small-boat migrant who had entered Britain illegally and was later granted asylum. A man stabbed whilst doing something as ordinary as visiting his bank. The attack, carried out in broad daylight, came after Nur had openly threatened to “kill 500 people” and displayed violent behaviour that was never properly acted on by the authorities. His conviction for murder and life sentence with a minimum term of 25 years expose yet again how Britain’s asylum system is failing to protect the public. Ordinary citizens can’t even queue in a bank without fearing that another “known to authorities” migrant might strike. It’s a devastating reminder that our country’s borders and institutions are being run with reckless complacency.
“Wayne deserved better. Britain deserves better.”
