I guess being while national wasn't enough to convict him after all.

So, a Tory MP who was involved in the legal pursuit of police and politicians who enabled the grooming gangs is assassinated, and the police run out and arrest a white British national just so they can make a false announcement to the press. How stupid is that?
@
So the White man has been released. Now they have had their media claiming the in very clear terms that a White man was arrested.
@
I’m surprised the UK police didn’t arrest Ann
@
Sad 😥
@
Who remembers "The Clockwork Orange"? Or the Charlie Kirk assasination? In any event the real murderer is at large....
@
Well at least they stopped”speculation” and got to print British white male suspect…. I’m in shock, I first read the story as Ann Widdecombe dies aged 78…. I thought it was of natural causes… how that poor woman was killed is just too horrific to imagine. RIP my deepest condolences to family and friends, I know she was blessed with many many devoted friends. She will be missed.

Let's get the full facts first. RIP Ann, you were a great character
@
STILL no mugshot!? If he were white you know damned well his photo would be blasted all over msm 24/7.

The Police are now looking for someone who is not as white as they first thought
@
They were quick to point out he was white though.

Such a cowardly act, that poor woman didn’t stand a chance.
@
OK! Now, let's have a name and a full description. Doesn't matter if he, she, it, them etc. are black, white, or brindle, let's have a description . . .

Right so plod arrested the first white man they could find so they could put out a statement that “Ann was k1lld and we have arrested a white man for it”. A few hours later “said white man is released”, and now the whole thing will go silent!

Unbelievable, so ineptitude on behalf of the stupid UK cops

So the police now need to issue a statement apologising for their massive mistake. They need to say the white British national we thought was the murderer is wrong. Isn't it amazing how they released that statement within a day but when they arrest others for murder they say we cannot release any information until further investigations to confirm it.

Did they arrest him just so they could push out that he was a white British national as soon as possible?
@
But the cops got to say white British man arrested, that was the important goal
@
So the white British national wasn't the guy...
