In secret, without a vote or a mandate, he\u2019s handing power to European judges and foreign officials all over again. This so-called security pact is nothing more than a backdoor deal to drag us back under Brussels control. It\u2019s everything Starmer and his Remainer mates have always wanted. But while he prances around the globe, who\u2019s protecting our security at home?<\/p>\n<p>What about stopping the illegal boats? What about securing our borders against the endless stream of undocumented, military-aged men arriving from <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/france\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">France<\/a>? Nowhere to be seen. Because this is all part of the plan. One quiet agreement, then another &#8211; and before we know it, we\u2019re right back where we started. A rule-taker, and having to pay for the privilege.<\/p>\n<p>And while Starmer gives away power abroad, his top team are tightening their grip at home \u2013 lining up to raid your wallet and restrict your freedoms.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t want you to enjoy a pint, light a cigarette, or make your own choices. They look down on how ordinary people live \u2013 and they\u2019re not even subtle about it.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019re banning disposable vapes. They\u2019ve taxed rolling tobacco so heavily it now costs more than silver. They want new levies on meat, alcohol, and anything else they disapprove of. It\u2019s not about health, it\u2019s about control.<\/p>\n<p>This is the reality of Starmer\u2019s Britain: surrender our freedoms abroad, strip them away at home.<\/p>\n<p>One threat of tariffs from our supposedly friendly European neighbours was all it took for Starmer to bend the knee \u2013 again. Why should we be surprised?<\/p>\n<p>Time and time again, two-tier Keir has shown that he is a weak leader out of touch with ordinary Britons&#8217; concerns.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the issues that matter to the people of this country, Starmer is failing on all fronts.<\/p>\n<p>At the start of this month, the good people of Britain voted for change \u2013 proper change \u2013 in council and mayoral elections up and down the country.<\/p>\n<p>They voted to tear down the inherited reign of the cloth-eared metropolitan elite, bringing an end to decades of broken promises, managed decline, and the uniparty stitch-up. They voted to reject Labour&#8217;s nanny statism and <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/tax\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tax<\/a> raids.<\/p>\n<p>Against the punishing levies driving family-run businesses into the ground and strangling growth. Against the warped economics that punish work, reward failure, and make everyday life more miserable.<\/p>\n<p>They voted for that simple principle: that people, not the government, know best how to spend their own money and live their own lives.<\/p>\n<p>They voted to protect the right to enjoy a pint, a cigarette, a laugh and to speak their minds \u2013 without being fined, banned or locked up.<\/p>\n<p>They didn\u2019t vote to go crawling back to the very institutions we walked away from. They didn\u2019t vote to be ruled again by European judges or overruled by foreign courts.<\/p>\n<p>They voted overwhelmingly for Reform \u2013 because Reform speaks for people who\u2019ve been ignored for too long. They want strong borders. Common sense, low taxes, free speech, national pride.<\/p>\n<p>And most of all, they want a country that works for them \u2013 not one run by technocrats abroad and out-of-touch elites at home.<\/p>\n<p>We said no in 2016. And we mean it even more today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Keir Starmer has sold us out.
