episode Will Henry Nowak’s Murder Change Policing? artwork

Will Henry Nowak’s Murder Change Policing?

The murder of Henry Nowak has sparked another debate about so-called ‘two-tier policing’, in which people are treated differently by police based on their ethnicity. We look at whether it actually exists, what police guidance says, and whether the case might lead to changes in how police deal with reports of crime. Laura is joined by former BBC legal and home affairs correspondent and Labour home affairs advisor Danny Shaw to discuss. They also unpack JD Vance’s comments blaming Henry’s death on “the mass invasion of migrants”. Downing Street has responded, saying “politics should bring people together”.
