Radical globalist Keir Starmer is the first openly atheist prime minister in British history, a situation that does not seem to augur well for the country’s Catholics and Protestant believers. Time will tell how Starmer’s stint in power will pan out. Meanwhile, the communists are already in power in “New Britain”. God save the UK.
For many Catholics and conservatives in Britain, the skies have been gray and bleak for the past few days, at least figuratively.
The leftist Labour Party under radical globalist Keir Starmer sailed to victory in what political observers termed as a “loveless landslide” in an election that gave the most distorted outcome in British electoral history. According to media reports, Britain’s Labour won 412 seats, while the Conservatives dropped to only 121. Besides, the Liberal Democrats garnered 71 seats as Nigel Farage’s nationalist and anti-globalist Reform UK obtained four seats.
Based on data from YouGov, voters voted Labour to kick out the Tories (48%), rather than concurring with Labour policies (5%). Therefore, take mainstream media reports that Labour won “with a decisive victory” with a pinch of salt.
Undaunted by a strong Labour showing in the recent polls, Nigel Farage declared that his Reform UK party, with 14.3 percent of the popular vote in the national elections, would serve as a check on Starmer’s attempts to cozy up to the globalist European Union (EU), the Brussels Signal reported.
Following Starmer’s victory, conservative and liberal commentators have been speculating on how the Marxist Starmer would steer Britain in the next few years. Note that Starmer is the first openly atheist prime minister in British history, a situation that does not seem to augur well for the country’s Catholics and Protestant believers.
Liberal outlet The Guardian reported Starmar as saying that the British House of Commons “will have the largest cohort of LGBT+ members of any parliament in the world”, marking his penchant for gender ideologies. Likewise, far-left outlet The Independent recounted the Trotskyist Starmer’s LGBT+ track record, lauding Starmer as an “outspoken advocate of LGBT rights”.
“Labour has promised in its manifesto to bring in a ‘trans inclusive’ conversion-therapy ban, something the FSU has long been campaigning against.”
On the conservative end of the spectrum, Toby Young, founder of the Free Speech Union (FSU) penned an article in spiked, expressing concerns “that a Labour government will bring in new laws that will criminalize vast swathes of speech that are currently legal”, as “Labour has promised in its manifesto to bring in a ‘trans inclusive’ conversion-therapy ban, something the FSU has long been campaigning against.”
Adding, Young said:
“The FSU is concerned that if Labour passes this law, parents who challenge their children’s belief that they’re ‘born in the wrong body’ or try to talk their children out of having dangerous medical procedures could end up in jail. That’s a law we think may be incompatible with Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights, which protects the right to a family and private life, and Article 10, which protects the right to free speech.”
Moreover, Labour’s proposed Race Equality Act “ will further institutionalize critical race theory and attempt to foist diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives on to the workplace”, Young elaborated.
The FSU founder went on, stating:
“As we’ve seen at the FSU, if you challenge the ideology underpinning DEI initiatives – by pointing out that the UK is one of the least racist countries in the world, for instance – you can find yourself out of a job.”
On the same note, spiked’s Deputy Editor Fraser Myers voiced concerns that Labour could undermine free speech. In what seemed like an eerie parallel to George Orwell’s 1984, Myers penned:
“Although it does not appear in Labour’s manifesto, Starmer’s frontbenchers have consistently vowed to reinstate Section 40 of the Crime and Courts Act 2013. This law’s aim is to cajole dissident news media to sign up to a state-backed regulator, using the threat of legal blackmail. Publishers that refuse to sign up would be forced to pay the costs of anyone who decides to sue them – even if the publisher wins the case!”
Also, news outlet The Telegraph featured an article detailing the elation of illegal immigrants in northern France following Labour’s recent victory at the polls. The Telegraph reported:
“Migrants in northern France celebrating Labour’s landslide victory have given Sir Keir Starmer a nickname and have vowed to cross the Channel at the ‘first chance’ they get.”
The same article by The Telegraph continued:
“Speaking to the Telegraph, some of the migrants welcomed the new Government and said they would risk crossing to the UK in small boats as soon as weather permitted.Sir Keir had vowed to scrap the Rwanda deportation flights on ‘day one’ if Labour reached power. Most migrants in the Grand-Synthe camp, near Dunkirk, were unaware of the results on Friday morning, but were delighted when told that Rishi Sunak would no longer be Prime Minister. Amir, 23, a bean-seller from Kurdistan, said migrants had given Sir Keir a nickname that roughly translates as a man who works for refugees or workers. He said: ‘We are calling him ‘Party Krekaran’ because we have heard that this guy is really helpful to the refugees.’”
True enough, on July 6, Starmer announced that he would ditch the previous Conservative government’s plan to send thousands of asylum seekers from Britain to Rwanda to supposedly halt uncontrolled immigration to Britain.
Corbyn made it a major tenet of his campaign to resist Israel’s actions in Gaza, urging for Britain to recognize a Palestinian state.
“The Rwanda scheme was dead and buried before it started. It’s never been a deterrent,” Starmer said.
“I’m not prepared to continue with gimmicks that don’t act as a deterrent.”
Strikingly, some pro-Hamas politicians campaigning as independent candidates, including Jeremy Corbyn, won seats in ethnic enclaves dominated by Muslims.
For example, Corbyn made it a major tenet of his campaign to resist Israel’s actions in Gaza, urging for Britain to recognize a Palestinian state.
Corbyn won the north London seat of Islington North by a 7,247 majority, as Labour lost 29.9 percentage points in support, as per globalist news outlet Politico.
Similarly, Shockat Adam declared “this is for Gaza” as he won the seat in Leicester South,by 979 votes, based on an article by the BBC.
It is noteworthy that Britain currently has more Islamist members of Parliament (MPs) than Reform MPs, as Ezra Levant of Rebel News observed. As Brussels Signal pointed out, campaigners such as Muslim Vote, supported by Islamic groups of various degrees of radicalism, contend that under 100 of the UK’s 650 constituencies Muslims comprise 10 per cent or more of Britain’s electorate.
Little wonder that Young of the FSU acknowledged that there lies “a risk that Labour will criminalize ‘Islamophobia’ as defined by the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on British Muslims in 2018”.
Adding, Young stipulated:
“According to the APPG definition, which the Labour Party has accepted, Islamophobia is a ‘type of racism that targets expressions of Muslimness or perceived Muslimness’. This means that any criticism of the religion of Islam could be deemed ‘Islamophobic’.”
Prior to the snap elections on July 4, politics professor Eric Kaufmann pointed out in The Spectator that Labour’s manifesto paves the way to new discriminatory quotas premised on ethnicity and to new “hate crime” laws. Kaufmann wrote:
“Will we be free, truth-based and a cohesive nation, or will we descend into an Orwellian nightmare of speech policing in which we are forced to mouth false mantras (‘trans women are women’, ‘systemic racism’, ‘diversity is our strength’) we don’t believe while the state turns British schoolchildren against their national past.This is not confined to the campus but reaches into almost every aspect of public life, from schools, universities and government to the military, police and private sector.”
Such conservative worries are not unfounded, particularly in light of the Labour document titled “A New Britain: Renewing Our Democracy And Rebuilding Our Economy”.
Critics have decried the Labour document as a means to ensure that leftists remain entrenched at the top, in order “to pilfer the powers of Parliament and give them to other bodies, less accountable but more in tune with the liberal elite”.
Such a prospect brings to mind what Starmer declared previously, that he hopes to be prime minister for at least a decade, likely promoting gender ideologies and implementing radical “reform” in Britain. Starmer probably thinks such authoritarian measures are necessary, in wake of what 60% of Labour voters said that they were only “lending Labour” their vote.
Despite popular support for Farage and his policies, globalist elites and their echo chambers in establishment media outlets have persecuted him for his pro-peace, anti-globalist, and Eurosceptic views.
Time will tell how Starmer’s stint in power will pan out. Meanwhile, the communists are already in power in “New Britain”. God save the UK.
