Totalitarian Starmer leaves a hole where British values used to be

 THE conservative writer David Horowitz said that ‘inside every progressive is a totalitarian screaming to get out’. There is now such a progressive running our country. Having received the keys to power, the totalitarian in Sir Keir Starmer has come out.

We find ourselves, in essence, in a low-key civil war. Started by a red-green alliance of the socialist/Marxist left and fundamental Islamists and enthusiastically taken up by Starmer, it is being waged against both the traditionalists of Judeo-Christian based British culture and values and the white working-class ‘left behinds’. Traditionalists and patriots may still be in the majority, but the new left alliance and its woke fellow travellers hold the offices of power and the means to enforce whatever are its chosen policies through a politicised police force and compliant judiciary.

I live in a traditional working-class community in the predominantly working-class North East of England; historically a Labour Party stronghold – the saying goes that up here people would vote for a donkey if you pinned a red rosette on it. That all changed in 2016 with the Brexit referendum, and subsequently in the 2019 general election when the North East overwhelmingly voted for Boris Johnson, principally because of his promise to implement Brexit and stop mass immigration. The people were rebelling – and the pro-EU Establishment were not happy.

The Conservatives reneged on their promises and, betrayed by consecutive Tory governments and recognising that Labour is no longer the party of the working classes, many stayed at home in the July general election. Labour won with the support of the socialist woke and the Muslim vote. But more than four million gave their vote to Reform UK – the people were rebelling again – and the Establishment are even less happy.

Starmer is so annoyed by us commoners that he has indiscriminately smeared us as racists and thugs, fascists and Nazis, meting out his fast-tracked discipline through the courts. He is punishing those who have raised their heads above the parapet, and is trying to frighten the rest of us to duck back down into silence and obedience.

Among the blue- and white-collar working-class people of my area, resentment and discontent is rife. The most common comment is ‘this isn’t our country any more’: they feel disenfranchised from the political debate and excluded from shaping the future of their own country. Gradually, realisation has taken hold that the things they believed in, trusted and respected, have been peeled away from the society they thought they knew and were comfortable in, not least their own communities, broken by years of so called ‘liberal’ values. Now they have a hole where they thought would always be a comforting continuation of traditional British culture and heritage, pride in our history, the safety of Christian moral boundaries, and the victory of truth over lies. They have neither the time, money, nor inclination to indulge in the luxury beliefs of the pampered left, and are angry with those who have imposed those luxury beliefs on them against their will....<<<Read More>>>....
