Nigel Farage has issued an "emergency address to the nation" this morning on the shocking case of Henry Nowak.
The Clacton MP said the case of Mr Nowak's murder was "proof we live in a two-tier country", just hours before Sir Keir Starmer's Government is due to face MPs in the Commons.
Yesterday, authorities released harrowing footage of officers approaching Mr Nowak after the 18-year-old was stabbed with a 21cm Sikh ceremonial knife five times on his way home from a night out in Southampton on December 3 in 2025.
Previously, the party leader heaped pressure on Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary to release the footage.
Killer Vickrum Digwa, 23, was jailed for life with a minimum of 21 years.
Saying the punishment given to Mr Nowak's murderer was more lenient than a "sustained, aggressive, murderous assault", Mr Farage announced that he would write to the Attorney General, Lord Hermer, to review the sentence.
Earlier this morning, Mr Farage announced on social media he would deliver an "emergency address to the nation".
The Clacton MP called for a "change in culture" which, he added, was the "most important thing to prevent the destruction of society".
"Enough of anti-white prejudice. A promotion of the idea that white lives matter just as much as black lives. This is serious. This is urgent," the leader declared.
The speech echoed Mr Farage's claim yesterday that "white lives matter too" after police finally released bodycam footage of officers handcuffing the 18-year-old.
He later suggested the university student’s arrest was an example of two-tier justice.

Mr Farage said: "The last thing he heard was being read his rights by police. The accusation of a racial slur is treated more seriously than actual violence.
"What is the response of many of our politicians? Silence. It is two-tier Britain."
He further warned police standards have deteriorated as a result of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies in the UK's forces.
Mr Farage said: "DEI agenda has gone so far through the police that people now get promoted, not on the basis of merit, not on the basis of ability, but on the basis of what their racial or religious origin is.
"That has led to a decline in policing standards.
"But think of this: As much as we may condemn the two police officers involved here, think of this, the biggest fear a police officer now has going about his or her duty on the street is the fear of being reported for having acted in a way that was racially biased.
"That fear now greater than dealing with a dying man living on the ground."
In his final moments, Mr Nowak, who was pushed into the gravel on a driveway, told officers "I have been stabbed" and "I can’t breathe".

Yesterday, Sir Keir delivered a brief response to the sentencing of Vickrum Digwa.
The Prime Minister, who was quick to condemn US police officers following the murder of George Floyd in 2020, penned a short 89-word response after Digwa was sentenced to life.
"This an awful, shocking case," he said. "Henry’s loved ones have gone through the trauma of a long trial and endured Henry's killer making up appalling claims about their son who was thoughtful, kind and deeply loved.
"It is right that the IOPC is investigating the police’s response to his senseless murder.
"And we must end the cycle of tragedy by tackling the horror of knife crime.
"Henry’s family, friends, his university and the city of Southampton will continue to feel his loss, and our thoughts will always be with them.
