British Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy has stated that he told US Senator JD Vance that his comments about the murder of a British teenager were “wrong”.

Lammy made this statement in response to Vance’s remarks, which suggested that the murder was linked to an influx of migrants. The incident occurred when 17-year-old Henry Nowak was stabbed to death in London.

According to reports, Lammy had previously spoken out against Vance’s comments, stating that they were “unacceptable” and “misinformed”.

Vance had blamed the murder on the large number of immigrants arriving in the UK. However, Lammy has maintained that there is no evidence to support this claim, and that the murder was a tragic incident with no connection to immigration.

The incident highlights the ongoing debate about immigration and its impact on crime rates in the UK.
