We begin with his arrest after posting a video defending himself and his family, following years of harassment, threats, and attacks linked to his refusal to serve halal meat at his restaurant. Kapoor explains why he believes he was targeted by the police, how the incident unfolded, and why he sees it as evidence of two-tier policing and institutional failure. The conversation explores rising community tensions, the role of radicalism, and the failures of law enforcement to protect ordinary citizens. Kapoor describes repeated incidents of intimidation, the breakdown of trust in the police, and why he believes the state is no longer upholding equal protection under the law. We also discuss his Sikh identity, the history of Sikhism as a warrior tradition, and how his beliefs shape his sense of duty, patriotism, and activism in Britain today. He reflects on immigration, integration, and why he believes more immigrants should stand up for British values and national identity. Finally, we examine his political activism, his break with figures on the British right, and the personal cost of speaking out, from financial loss to ongoing threats against him and his family. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WATCH THE EXTENDED AND AD-FREE CONVERSATION HERE: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:59 Why Harman Refuses to Serve Halal Meat 03:03 Harassment Campaign & Police Inaction 05:00 Mob Outside Restaurant & Arrest Within 30 Minut…","meta_description":"In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with restaurant owner and activist Harman Singh Kapoor.
