中贝德福德郡议员、保守党影子内政部长布莱克·史蒂芬森在党代会分会场发表言论，声称卢顿镇存在白人"不敢进入"的区域 1。他表示"这座城镇已经今非昔比。镇上的某些地区——不幸的是警方会证实这一点——可能是非常危险的地方。有些地区是白人不会去的" 1。史蒂芬森两周前被任命为保守党前台角色 1，他还声称英国平权法案导致"白人年轻男性"遭受歧视 1。
这些言论遭到当地当局的坚决否认。贝德福德郡警方声明称"卢顿不存在禁区" 1。此外，穆斯林和基督教团体对这些表述提出异议 1。值得注意的是，史蒂芬森的说法与极右翼分子的主张相同——2012年奥斯陆法庭上，挪威恐怖分子安德斯·布雷维克曾声称卢顿存在"超过1000个伊斯兰禁区" 1。
Blake Stephenson, the Conservative Party's shadow minister and member of parliament for Mid Bedfordshire, has claimed that parts of Luton constitute dangerous areas where white people are unwilling to venture.1 Speaking at a fringe event during the Conservative Party conference in Birmingham, Stephenson stated: "I think the town is a shadow of its former self. There are parts of that town – and unfortunately the police will tell you this – it can be a very dangerous place. There are parts where white people won't go."1 He further criticized the town as suffering from segregated communities.1
The remarks have drawn swift denial from local authorities and community groups. Bedfordshire Police stated that "no-go areas do not exist in Bedfordshire."1 Stephenson's allegations have also drawn comparison to claims made by Anders Breivik, who cited Luton as containing "more than 1,000 Islamic no-go zones" in a 2012 court statement in Oslo.1 In separate comments, Stephenson asserted that the Equality Act has resulted in discrimination against "white young men."1
