Starmer is finished. He is a busted flush, clinging to office by slandering the British public as racists. If you think criminals, spongers and illegals should be deported, you are now, according to your Prime Minister, immoral.
So now we know. The mask has well and truly slipped. Keir Starmer, the most unpopular Prime Minister in living memory, has declared that deporting illegal migrants is racist.
Millions of ordinary Britons, hard-working taxpayers who are sick to the back teeth of being lectured, have just been smeared as bigots for daring to want their borders defended. Who does this man think he is?
Starmer has just had his very own “basket of deplorables” moment. The sneer, the condescension, the elite disdain for the public, it’s all there. Call it “Far Right,” call it “racist,” call us “thugs,” call it whatever you like, but it’s the same tired script. And yet Starmer is so spectacularly tin-eared, so politically bankrupt, that he genuinely believes smearing the majority will somehow rescue his sinking ship.
This is a man presiding over polls that show him plunging below Brown, Blair… below everyone since records began. Minus 66 approval. The worst PM ratings in British history. And still he lectures the nation as if he were some moral titan, wagging his finger at Reform for daring to say that indefinite “settled status” should not mean a blank cheque for life.
Let’s be clear: deporting illegals, criminals and freeloaders is not racist. It is the most basic duty of government. Millions of us demand it. Reform, the Tories, UKIP and Advance UK have simply given voice to what the majority believe, that the British taxpayer cannot, should not, and will not subsidise endless migration. And Starmer’s response? To say we are racist.
Worse still, he’s now blurting out that anyone on a temporary visa should effectively be able to stay forever. No distinction between a British citizen and someone just passing through. No distinction between neighbour and stranger. For Starmer, Britain isn’t a nation, it’s a hotel lobby where everyone gets a keycard.
And while he preaches, what is his “big idea”? A Tony Blair-era digital ID card scheme already opposed by Tories, Lib Dems, Reform, and even his own MPs. A system that solves nothing, curtails liberty, and already has two million signatures against it. When pressed on how it will work, he flounders. Employers already have to check documents… so what’s new? Nothing but more bureaucracy.
This, remember, is the grand plan of the Prime Minister. A man so desperate, so cornered by mutiny in his own ranks, that he has retreated to Blair’s failed ideas while the economy stalls and his Chancellor prepares a £30 billion tax grab.
Starmer is finished. He is a busted flush, clinging to office by slandering the British public as racists. If you think criminals, spongers and illegals should be deported, you are now, according to your Prime Minister, immoral.
Well, enough. This country does not need lectures. It needs leadership. And if Starmer cannot provide it, as the polls scream, as the people roar, then he must go.
Starmer doesn’t see it yet, but he has already lost the people. And once the people are gone, Prime Minister, so are you.
