I predicted, in sketching an anti-Sikh panic, that political parties would cave to pressure “Enthusiastically in Reform’s case, awkwardly and abjectly in Labour’s.” Just as I was finalising edits to this article, Andy Burnham, currently the party's preferred successor to Starmer, was asked about removing the exemption that allows Sikhs to carry small ceremonial knives. “I think it needs to be looked at” the supposedly centre-left alternative replied. He even managed the “awkwardly and abjectly” part, waffling about how forcing a minority to choose between a religious duty and leaving their homes would have to be done “carefully.” Never mind that legislating based on one incident is virtually never a good idea. Never mind that the knife used to kill Nowak was nothing like the small kirpan most Sikhs carry. Those in power just cannot seem to tell the fascists no.

But none of this is inevitable. “What’s next? British commentators ask in shock. Will the mainstream media be discussing global plots to replace the white race? Yes. That’s what comes next. I’ve been saying this for some time. It’s less ‘pattern recognition’ and more ‘recognising there is a pattern.’ If we don’t start to coordinate a response it's that, then concentration camps, then death camps.
