Some of you may remember the Labour government’s ruthless crackdown on the riots and disorder that followed the Southport attack back in the summer.
It puzzled many people – how could it be that the Prime Minister, the man who took the knee to the Black Lives Matter mob with his deputy Angela Rayner, just hours after the mob pulled down the statue of Edward Colston in Bristol, how could he, all of a sudden, be a law and order Prime Minister?
It didn’t end with the crackdown on rioters.
The Prime Minister withheld information from the public regarding the terror charges of the Southport suspect, claiming if he hadn’t, it could have prejudiced the trial, even though numerous cases emerged from the past where he had referred to other terror attacks as such within hours.

Then it emerged in January that an internal Home Office report had described the idea of “two-tier policing” as an extremist right wing narrative.
Well, the past 24 hours have turned the government’s narrative completely upside down.
The independent reviewer of terrorism legislation, Jonathan Hall KC, has claimed that it was the failure to disclose the facts about the Southport killer, Axel Rudakubana, that risked prejudicing the trial.
If the truth had come out earlier, there would never have been an information vacuum.
But it gets worse – not only did the Prime Minister handle Southport catastrophically, but we now have definitive proof that we are living in a two-tier society.
The Sentencing Council has issued new guidance that would make prison sentences less likely for ethnic and cultural minorities.
In a statement, the council justified its effectively racist policy on the grounds that there are disparities within the judicial system and therefore outcomes should be rectified in this manner.
The Labour government has distanced itself from the guidance with the Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood saying she completely disagrees with the guidance, but just this evening, the Times has reported that these guidelines were drawn up off the back of David Lammy’s report from 2017.
But the policy also stems from the most sacred of New Labour legislation – the Equality Act.
Labour may say they want these rules scrapped, but they would never dare touch this law.
As long as the Equality Act stays in place, we are destined for a two-tier Britain indefinitely.
