Tuesday, 29 July, marked the anniversary of the Southport murders. Since the nationwide protests that ensued, the British state has been scared that the host majority will erupt into violence.

Keir Starmer briefed his Cabinet last week, warning we could see another summer of riots because of immigration. He has already created a new police unit to monitor “anti-migrant sentiment” online. He thinks there's a very real threat of civil unrest.

So why did Essex Police escort Socialist Workers' Party agitators, some dressed like agent provocateurs, to stand opposite parents peacefully protesting illegal migration in Epping?

First, they denied it; then, when confronted by video evidence, Assistant Chief Constable Stuart Hooper said, “We have a reasonable duty to protect people who want to exercise their rights. In terms of bringing people to the hotel, the police have a duty to facilitate free assembly.” This is the same Essex Police force that threatened to arrest Allison Pearson for a deleted tweet.

Do the government want violence, as a pretext to silence critics of mass migration and multiculturalism? 

Also, we question whether crime really is declining in London, as Fraser Nelson says, and why a single tweet from Dominic Cummings spells doom for Kemi Badenoch as leader of the Conservatives, this week on Tomlinson Talks.
