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>>>...

Britain’s working class will never fight Starmer’s war for Ukraine

 Following the Munich Security Conference last week, European Union leaders appeared shell-shocked by US Vice President J.D. Vance’s scathing attack on Europe.

He criticized the continent for multiple reasons, including the lack of free speech, arrests of European citizens for inflammatory social media posts, insufficient commitment to security, and destabilization due to both legal and illegal migration. Although Vance seemed to address Western European politicians and officials, it is likely he was speaking over their heads, directly to the public. His words resonated with widespread discontent about politics and politicians across the region, aligning with the prevailing sense of unfairness felt by many ordinary citizens.

Western European leaders, including British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, appeared agitated and uncomfortable with Washington’s tone. Perhaps the hard truths Vance presented have forced them to reconsider their consistently underfunded armed forces. Vance’s warnings made it clear that they cannot indefinitely rely on the US for military power and financial aid, particularly regarding the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky also heard that signal and immediately called for a ‘European Armed Force’. Western European leaders arranged an emergency meeting in Paris hosted by French President Emmanuel Macron and, astonishingly, Starmer indicated British soldiers could be sent to the Ukraine to enforce any peace deal...<<<Read More>>>....

Zelensky claims he’d resign for NATO membership or peace, as U.S. aid tensions mount

 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has signaled a willingness to step down if his resignation could secure NATO membership for Ukraine or bring an end to the ongoing war with Russia.

The embattled leader made the surprising announcement during the “Ukraine. Year 2025” forum in Kyiv on Saturday, as tensions with the United States over military aid and resource demands escalate. Zelensky, whose presidential term expired in May 2024, has faced criticism for suspending elections under martial law, a move U.S. President Donald Trump has repeatedly condemned. With American support waning under Trump’s administration, Zelensky appears to be grappling with the reality that the financial lifeline from Washington may soon dry up.

Zelensky, a former comedian who rose to power in 2019, told attendees at the forum that he is prepared to leave office if it benefits Ukraine. “If peace for Ukraine, if you really need me to leave my post, then I’m ready. I can exchange this for NATO, if there are such conditions,” he said. The Ukrainian leader emphasized that his focus is on Ukraine’s immediate security, not on retaining power for decades.

This statement comes as Zelensky faces mounting pressure from Trump, who has labeled him a “dictator without elections” and criticized his refusal to hold elections despite the expiration of his term. Trump has also questioned the legitimacy of Zelensky’s leadership, pointing to his low approval ratings and the suspension of democratic processes under martial law...<<<Read More>>>....

Trump brands Zelensky 'dictator without elections'

The Ukrainian leader earlier criticized the US for holding peace talks with Russia and excluding officials from Kiev.

US President Donald Trump has labeled Ukraine's Vladimir Zelensky a "dictator without elections," accusing him of mismanaging the conflict with Russia and misusing American financial aid. Tensions between Washington and Kiev have intensified following US-Russia talks in Saudi Arabia this week.

Posting on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday, Trump criticized Zelensky, stating that the Ukrainian leader had "talked the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldn't be won." He further claimed that Zelensky "refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls."

"A Dictator without Elections, Zelensky better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left," Trump warned...<<<Read More>>>...

Nuland confirms West told Zelensky to abandon peace deal

Kiev consulted with the US, UK and other allies during the 2022 Istanbul peace talks with Russia and was told that the deal on the table was not a good one, former US under secretary of state Victoria Nuland has said.

In an interview with Russian journalist Mikhail Zygar, former editor-in-chief of the opposition news channel Dozhd, which aired on Thursday, Nuland was asked to comment on reports that the peace process between Moscow and Kiev in late March and early April 2022 collapsed after then-British Prime Minister Boris Johnson traveled to Ukraine and told Vladimir Zelensky to keep fighting.

"Relatively late in the game the Ukrainians began asking for advice on where this thing was going and it became clear to us, clear to the Brits, clear to others that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin's main condition was buried in an annex to this document that they were working on," she said of the deal being discussed by the Russian and Ukrainian delegations in Türkiye's largest city.

The proposed agreement included limits on the kinds of weapons that Kiev could possess, as a result of which Ukraine "would basically be neutered as a military force," while there were no similar constraints on Russia, the former diplomat explained.

"People inside Ukraine and people outside Ukraine started asking questions about whether this was a good deal and it was at that point that it fell apart," Nuland said....<<<Read More>>>...

Zelensky's new delusion: Why has the Ukrainian leader decided to claim multiple regions of Russia?

President Vladimir Zelensky's decree on Russian lands "historically inhabited by Ukrainians" opens a hornet's nest

At the end of January, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky signed a decree on "Russian Territories Historically Inhabited by Ukrainians," which includes measures aimed at "preserving the national identity of Ukrainians" in Russia.

"This is the restoration of the truth about the historical past for the sake of Ukraine's future," Zelensky said in a video address on his country's annual Day of Unity.

The published decree states that the Kiev government has been instructed to develop and submit an action plan to the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine concerning a number of historical Russian borderlands - namely, Kuban Region and Starodubshchyna, as well as northern and eastern Slobozhanshchyna, which correspond to Russia's present-day Krasnodar, Belgorod, Bryansk, Voronezh, Kursk, and Rostov regions.

The government will also have to "debunk Russian myths about Ukraine" and "develop interaction between Ukrainians and the peoples enslaved by Russia."

"For centuries, Russia has systematically committed and continues to commit acts aimed at destroying [Ukrainian] national identity, oppressing Ukrainians, violating their rights and freedoms, including on lands which they had historically inhabited," Zelensky said.

Despite its declarative tone, the decree caused fierce controversy in both Ukrainian and Russian media. Although the document is mainly informational (especially given the failure of last year's counteroffensive and the difficult situation at the front), it demonstrates that, for Ukraine's political elite, the military conflict isn't the only problem; there is also the issue of the two conflicting "visions" of the post-Soviet space and its political, cultural, and economic transformation. Russia's vision is multinational, conservative, and focused on sovereignty, while Ukraine's is mono-ethnic, Westernized, and focused on globalization....<<<Read More>>>...
