03.06.2026 ⇢ The Day the Police Apologised for Handcuffing a Dying Man
⌨
The Henry Nowak case dominated for a third day, shifting from outrage over bodycam footage to institutional fallout. Morning headlines reported violent protests in Southampton injuring 11 officers, with arrests made. By midday, PMQs saw Starmer call Farage's response 'unforgivable' and Badenoch demand a 'wake-up call'. The afternoon brought the police chief's apology for handcuffing the dying 18-year-old, while right-leaning outlets accused Starmer of denying two-tier policing. Evening coverage centred on the BBC's apology to Farage over a Newsnight misquote. US-Iran strikes and a Royal Navy helicopter crash killing three were secondary stories.
