Perhaps it is because he has declared himself a socialist. Perhaps it is because of his apparent closeness to the World Economic Forum and other equally nefarious organisations. Perhaps it is his past as Director of Public Prosecutions. Or perhaps it is all three.
As Stark Naked Brief noted, “There is a lot about Keir Starmer that the wider public does not know.”
Keir Starmer is a former Director of Public Prosecutions (“DPP”) and Head of the Crown Prosecution Service (“CPS”), where he was central in making sure the case against Julian Assange continued.
As DPP, Starmer failed to bring charges against Jimmy Savile for paedophilia. The decision was made despite the CPS receiving substantial evidence of his crimes from witnesses and victims several years before Savile died in 2011. All CPS files on Savile were destroyed in October 2010; it is an open question whether Starmer himself made that call, and if so, why.
After reviewing the CPS’s handling of the Savile case in 2012, Starmer reportedly “came very close to rubber-stamping the original decision not to prosecute,” before appointing his own CPS chief legal adviser, Alison Levitt, to conduct the formal inquiry.
Starmer also encountered criticism over the CPS’s decision to release the prolific serial rapist, John Worboys, from prison, as well as the decision not to pursue 75 further allegations made against him. However, in 2018, the CPS issued a statement claiming that Starmer had no role in either of the decisions regarding Worboys.
In June 2014, Starmer joined the law firm Mishcon de Reya. The company has received huge fines for facilitating money laundering and frequently helps wealthy people and powerful corporations abuse the British legal system to “intimidate and destroy” journalists. Starmer received over £6,000 for just 24 hours of work at Mishcon de Reya in 2016. Starmer was forced in July 2017 by then-Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to depart his well-remunerated position there, after taking a Shadow Cabinet role....<<<Read More>>>...
