The Spin

Left narrative

Last week's blunder should never have happened, but thanks are due to the police and public for helping get Kebatu back in custody. Since, the government has pulled every lever to ensure that this vile sex offender is quickly removed from British soil and is returned to Ethiopia. Anyone who comes to the U.K. and commits crime will face the same fate.

Right narrative

The Epping sex offender has finally been deported after the calamitous bungling of how this was handled by authorities. The way he was released was a complete disgrace and is a parable for how Britain is a broken country that's in desperate need of fixing.
