Mr Starmer, The world is watching. And for once, I’m not here to play nice or balance both sides. This is the one shot I get to say what millions already know in their bones. You are not Britain’s Prime Minister. You are a man who won an election and immediately began dismantling the very things the British people voted for in 2016. You are squatting in Downing Street while steering the country back into the arms of the institution it explicitly rejected. If you will not stand down, the British people will make you. Here is every claim you made today, stripped bare, no spin, no mercy: 1. “The Middle East conflict has now entered its second month.” Thank you for the calendar update. While you counted months, the IRGC a group formally designated as terrorists by the United States, Canada, and others, continued running its London operations from 16 Prince’s Gate, Knightsbridge. You did nothing. 2. “The UK is working at pace for de-escalation and peace.” Translation: we issued strongly worded statements. Results: zero. Your “pace” is the speed of a snail on tranquillisers. 3. “The war will affect the future of our country, energy and cost of living.” It already is. Your green ideology and EU realignment have left Britain with some of the highest energy prices in the developed world. Pensioners choose between heating and eating. That’s not “the war.” That’s policy. 4. “We are well-placed with a long-term plan to emerge stronger and more secure.” Record taxes. 7.5 million people on NHS waiting lists. Record small-boat crossings. Energy bills that could bankrupt households. If this is your definition of “stronger and more secure,” the English language just filed for divorce. 5. “I held meetings with business leaders…” Photo opportunities. They warned you. You smiled for the cameras and carried on regardless. 6. “Energy bills will be cut today and fixed until July.” A £117 cap that your own NI increases and green levies have already vaporised. It’s not relief. It’s an insult dressed up as compassion. 7. “The most effective way to support the cost of living is to push for reopening the Strait of Hormuz.” Then why did you help shut down North Sea production and make us dependent on foreign energy? The hypocrisy is so thick you could spread it on toast. 8. “The UK is taking back control of our energy security by investing in clean British energy.” Britain now pays the highest industrial electricity prices in Europe. Blackouts are on the menu. This is not “taking back control.” This is self-sabotage with better PR. 9. “Because the world is volatile, Britain’s long-term national interest now requires closer partnership with the EU.” Let’s be honest for once: you are using a foreign crisis as cover to hand sovereignty, money, and decision-making back to Brussels without asking the British people. That is not statesmanship. That is betrayal by stealth. 10. “I will announce a new summit with the EU later this year…” Re-joining by the back door while an Iranian terror-linked operation sits in one of London’s most expensive postcodes. The sheer gall is almost impressive. You stood at the podium today and spoke of “British interests” while actively working against them. You swore you wouldn’t rejoin the EU. You are doing it anyway. You talk of security while leaving a designated terror network untouched in central London. You lecture about the cost of living while your policies make it worse. The mask is not slipping, Keir. It has fallen off and shattered on the floor. The British people see you clearly now: a politician who values international approval and Brussels goodwill more than the nation that elected him. You are not leading Britain. You are managing its managed decline. The clock is ticking. Not in secret. Not in silence. Out loud, in broad daylight, across every pub, every kitchen table, every X feed and every street in this country. History does not forgive those who sell their own people’s sovereignty for applause. Britain did not vote for this. Britain does not want this. And Britain will not tolerate this forever. The reckoning is coming. And it will not be kind. Britain First. No Surrender. 🦁🇬🇧

@TerryCo37805465 @boleynbadges He was a regular by the time I started going in 1960 but don't think he had scored a senior goal at that point. But do remember being on the North Bank for an evening game (against Man U?) when he powered in a header to huge emotional response 👏👏👏

Can’t believe the news about Bonzo… One of my heroes growing up and I then had the pleasure of playing with him. An incredible footballer, leader and captain but above all else a very humble and fantastic person. RIP Bill. I will miss you mate ⚒️⚒️

Not a single fucking word from this piss stained government. If he’d been a Muslim they would be showering the ‘community’ with thoughts, prayers and a fuck ton of money. But he’s white. He’s British. So they don’t give a fuck. #waynebroadhurst

I find it disgusting that the two people destroying this country the most are both ‘Sirs’. 🤷🏼‍♀️ If Andrew can lose his ‘Prince’ title then surely these two traitors must be able to lose theirs?! Give me a thumbs up 👍🏻 if you’d like to see it happen!
