Tommy Robinson has criticised newly elected Holborn and St Pancras MP Sagal Abdi-Wali, reigniting debate over representation, community identity and political priorities in modern Britain. Share Political activist Tommy Robinson has sparked controversy after criticising newly elected Holborn and St Pancras MP Sagal Abdi-Wali, the politician chosen by local voters to succeed Prime Minister Keir Starmer in the constituency. In a social media post, Robinson accused the new MP of placing greater emphasis on her Somali heritage and community connections than on representing Britain as a whole. Referring to a speech in which Abdi-Wali spoke about community unity, Robinson suggested her loyalties were focused on Somalia rather than the constituency she has been elected to serve. The remarks have quickly divided opinion online. Supporters of Robinson argue that voters have a right to scrutinise elected officials and question where their priorities lie. Othe...

Police have not yet confirmed whether today’s Island Harbour shooting will be classified as a homicide.
Island Harbour — the fishing capital of Anguilla and long regarded as one of the island’s safest, most close‑knit communities — awoke today to the devastating news that two men were found with gunshot wounds between 5:30am and 6am. Police have not yet confirmed whether the incident will be classified as a double homicide, but the discovery has already sent shockwaves through the community. The early‑morning shooting has intensified public anxiety in a year already marked by rising violence and deepening concerns about the island’s ability to contain escalating gun crime.
Police have not yet confirmed whether today’s Island Harbour shooting will be classified as a homicide. If the incident is confirmed as a homicide, it would add to the five killings already recorded in 2026, several of which remain unsolved. The year began with the murder of Romaine Ovardo Carby on 7 January, followed by the fatal shooting of 19‑year‑old Clashawn Gumbs on 10 January, and the killing of 26‑year‑old Shane Quaishan Hughes on 14 February, a case in which no arrests have been made.
These unresolved cases sit alongside the troubling legacy of 2025, a year that saw 11 homicides with no charges brought in any of them. Among the most haunting is the murder of Carl Stephen Carter, killed in February 2025, with police renewing appeals one year later and still no breakthrough. As the list of unsolved killings grows, so does the fear that these cases may quietly slip into cold‑case territory.

The concern is amplified by a stark admission made earlier this year by the Police Commissioner: multiple homicides in Anguilla over the past 18 months were committed using the same weapons. This revelation suggests a deeper, more organised circulation of illegal firearms within the territory.

On an island this small, where every dock, boat and container is theoretically visible, the public is left asking the question authorities have yet to answer , how are guns even getting into Anguilla? And more importantly, who is ensuring they remain in circulation? Today’s shooting in Island Harbour, whether ultimately classified as a homicide or not, makes that question impossible to ignore. As the cases continue to pile up without resolution, Anguillians are left to confront a painful truth: with every unsolved killing, the silence grows louder.
The island now faces a disturbing dilemma, what matters more: solving these crimes, or protecting the murderers who walk freely among the public? With 16 killings across 2025 and 2026 and the majority still unsolved, the pattern is no longer coincidence; it is crisis. And unless something changes, today’s events in Island Harbour will not be the last moment of national alarm , only the next one.
