The latest mass stabbing, this time on a London-bound Doncaster train, took place on Saturday evening. In the terrifying confines of unguarded interconnected train carriages, a 32-year-old man launched a frenzied attack with a ‘large kitchen knife’ on unsuspecting passengers—seriously injuring 11, one of whom is in a “critical but stable condition.” Thanks to alerts from passengers, the British Transport Police boarded the train at Huntingdon where it had made an unscheduled stop, and arrested two suspects (one of whom was subsequently released without charge).
Huntingdon, alas, is a sign of the times. Taking a train is merely the latest in a never-ending series of mundane activities which now come with the risk of death. Walking your dog is increasingly perilous, as Wayne Broadhurst tragically discovered when he was fatally stabbed by an Afghan national in Uxbridge. Working in an ‘asylum hotel’ is not much better, with much the same fate befalling Rhiannon Whyte. Whyte was stabbed 23 times with a screwdriver (including 11 times in the head) by a Sudanese resident.
What’s slightly complicating the picture this time around, is that the man charged with the attempted murders has been named as Anthony Williams, a black British national from Peterborough. With ‘Williams’ about as English a name as it gets, that leaves the illegal migrant narrative dead in the water. It does however, make one question what exactly it means to be ‘British’—because routine mass slaughter was never a feature of the Britain I grew up in.
While the profile of Williams is still patchy, there is disturbing evidence that the police have mishandled several opportunities to take him off the streets. According to the British Transport Police, Williams is being charged with another count of attempted murder at Pontoon Dock DLR station on November 1st. In addition, it was reported that police were alerted to a man brandishing a knife at the Ritzy Barber Shop in Peterborough, both on Friday evening and again on the morning of the train attack. Apparently the police failed to detain him or carry out an assessment. The footage is circulating widely on social media:
Williams’ criminal history is as yet unknown to the public. But as the British Transport Police confirm they are “looking at other possible linked offences,” the echoes of Axel Rudakubana are resounding. Had Rudakubana’s care plan not been ‘watered down’ after discussions with his parents, or his Prevent case closed prematurely, perhaps Elsie, Alice, and Bebe would be alive today. What are the odds that Williams is another case of missed opportunities?
One has to address the elephant in the room: how much of this is race-related?
The reason I am, much like Williams, making that wild stab in the dark, is that white criminals in Starmer’s Britain get the shortest of short shrifts. Two-tier justice—essentially the notion that only white men deserve to feel the full force of the law—is now enshrined in law. ‘Far-right thuggery’, Starmer’s preferred description of white people objecting to the mass slaughter of their daughters, now extends to those stating “we love bacon” in the presence of Muslims, and Epping ‘pink ladies’ daring to wave England flags outside a migrant hotel.
In the wake of the Southport murders and the authorities’ refusal to release any information about Rudakubana, police were instructed to reveal suspects’ ethnicity in ‘high-profile cases’ in order to counter misinformation. Of course, this has never been an issue when the suspects are white Brits. Back in May when a driver ploughed into a football crowd, Merseyside Police took just two hours to confirm they had arrested “a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area”. And yet, when it came to Huntingdon it took 14 hours to get the bare minimum.
In lieu of details, we were treated to the usual obfuscation. According to the British Transport Police, “it would not be appropriate to speculate on the causes of the incident.” As usual, nothing was known—except that it definitely wasn’t terrorism. The emergency services were repeatedly praised for their response time, which makes me think if diversity-enriched European nations are determined not to deal with the flaws of multiculturalism, perhaps they should make response time to terror an Olympic event.
The Home Secretary went one better—instructing the plebs not only to avoid speculation, but to avoid comment as well. Naturally she did so on X, although I assume the irony was lost on her:
With attempted mass murder now a permanent fixture, it’s clear the optics of the massacres matter to the authorities. While perfectly prepared to kneel for Black Lives Matter, our prime minister completely ignored the recent murder of Wayne Broadhurst. Like Iryna Zarutska across the pond, by being victim instead of perpetrator, Wayne was obviously on the wrong side of the equation.
Here, I believe, is the crux of the matter: the Left’s trump card, the accusation of ‘racism’ is going to have to be acceded to. Of course, the leftwing slurs are made in bad faith. But I find myself desperately unimpressed by those on the Right, who feebly attempt to parry such charges with the defence, ‘facts can’t be racist.’ Au contraire comrades, crime is racist. But whose fault is that? Whose fault is it that the reality of crime does not conform to idiotic left-wing ideology? Is it the people doing the stabbing, raping, and murdering, or is it those merely drawing accurate conclusions from the data?
This insane demand that reality conform to egalitarian ideals is the primary issue crippling Britain at present. It is the fear of accusations of racism that allowed the grooming gangs to go unpunished for decades; it is fear of being called racist, that allowed the Manchester Arena bomber to go unchallenged; and it is the slur of racism that has allowed Sadiq Khan to slash stop and search in London, thereby directly facilitating the scourge of knife crime in our capital. In other words, it is ‘racist’ to save lives because the killers invariably happen to be non-white.
The choice for the authorities therefore, is a simple one: enforce the law, shore up the borders, deport illegals, prioritise the native population, particularly women and children while being called ‘racist’. Or alternatively, continue to allow the random slaughter—and be called ‘racist’ regardless. That’s not a tough call, and any prime minister worthy of the office would make it.
