Police act against shop-keeper for non-crime hate incident

The Stark Naked Brief. @StarkNakedBrief You probably haven't heard of the case of Elizabeth Griffiths but...

A few months ago, she became yet another victim of our policing establishment's long-running assault on legal expression.

Elizabeth runs a small hardware shop in Cleobury Mortimer, a quiet market town in south-east Shropshire.

One day, she placed a photo of Enoch Powell and a copy of his Rivers of Blood speech in her shop window.

A gesture, she said, meant to honour “powerful leaders.”

But someone took offence. So they dobbed her into the police.

West Mercia Police then opened an investigation and recorded it as a non-crime hate incident—effectively slapping a black mark on her record for displaying a photo and a speech that, content aside, is a part of British history.

The kicker?

Powell’s warnings about mass immigration were recently compared to Starmer’s own “Island of Strangers” speech just weeks ago.

So Elizabeth’s name is now on a list.

Thanks to West Mercia Police recording the incident as a non-crime hate incident, it could show up on an enhanced DBS check.

That means if she ever wanted to apply for a job outside her shop—or volunteer at a school, charity, or care home—it might come up and prevent her from working or volunteering.

All because someone found a poster “offensive".

And this comes from a force previously accused of "dropping" grooming gang investigations due to fears among senior officers of being called racist.

Just another day in two-tier, pseudo-fascistic Britain. enter image description here
