Starmer said Farage’s appeal for rage was unforgivable and warned against exploiting Henry Nowak’s death as police face questions over their response.
- Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer rejected Reform UK leader Nigel Farage's claims of 'two-tier policing' during Wednesday's Prime Minister's Questions, condemning him for exploiting the death of 18-year-old student Henry Nowak.
