Sir Keir Starmer has finally broken his silence on the murder of Essex teenager Henry Nowak after being shamed for failing to release a statement.The Prime Minister, who was quick to condemn US police officers following the murder of George Floyd in 2020, penned an 89-word response after Vickrum Digwa was sentenced to life for killing the 18-year-old with a Sikh ceremonial knife, known as a kirpan.
