Starmer may be a hero to Zelensky and EU leaders but he’s no hero to Britons

 UK Labour Party leader Sir Keir Starmer has promised billions in free weapons to Ukraine and increasing nuclear capacity to defend Europe, particularly Germany, which has not funded its own defence.

Paul Sutton argues that Starmer’s actions are driven by his faith in the “international order” and a desire to rejoin the EU, rather than a genuine concern for British security or interests.

He accuses Starmer and the Labour Party of despising the indigenous white working class and being willing to send them to fight for other countries’ interests while prioritising “liberal values” and globalist ideologies over British freedoms and security.

I hate slagging my country off, especially anything to do with its army. My family has a fairly military background, as do many. But I’m well past believing our politicians can be trusted with our armed services, especially (but not exclusively) Labour ones. And double especially those who are “Human Rights Lawyers,” with a track record for persecuting soldiers who fought terrorism in Northern Ireland (where my brother served as an infantry officer) and elsewhere, to line their own pockets.

And now Starmer has promised billions in free weapons to Ukraine and our nuclear capacity to defend Europe – especially Germany, whose new Chancellor has airily assured the German people of this protection, since the Germans can’t be bothered to fund their own defence. A country which deliberately meddled in our own security issues, pouring acid onto the Northern Ireland wounds and blatantly exploiting that to punish Britain, for Brexit. Of course, Tony Blair advised the EU to use this as “leverage” and the Labour Party eagerly collaborated in the fiction that the Good Friday Agreement demanded no hard border in Northern Ireland. The EU’s chief negotiator is on camera specifically explaining all this, and how losing Northern Ireland was “the price that Britain pays for Brexit.”

Our EU “allies” have shown zero concern for any of our security worries but now want our protection, limited as it is due to chronic defence underfunding. In fact, France deliberately uses the cross-Channel migrant crisis as a weapon and once threatened to blockade the Channel Islands, unless we surrendered our fishing waters. My strong suspicion is that most of our elite – furious over Brexit – were only too willing to be so insulted and were happy to see our security so casually treated.

Starmer and his ilk aren’t offering British lives and cash in defence of this country. They’re doing it for their own faith in (and enrichment by) the “international order” of a globalist liberal fantasy, to stay part of this disastrous grouping. After all, why is Britain giving up the Chagos Islands and paying a country which has no claim to that territory billions for getting them? Because some International court, with no jurisdiction over us, made a suggestion that we should – as advised by Starmer’s Attorney General and his cronies. Apparently, that tin-pot court has the power to stop the electromagnetic spectrum working over the Indian Ocean, according to one of the ludicrous justifications given by this government....<<<Read More>>>...
