Starmer’s Doing a Little Street Sweeping While All Eyes on Northern Ireland

As tense as the situation is in Northern Ireland over the near beheading of a local fellow in Belfast by one of their legions of ‘asylum seekers,’ it doesn’t mean the anger and disenchantment with the policies of Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labor government across the water in England have subsided.

If anything, it seems the British want their own problems addressed and are taking to the streets in larger and bolder numbers every weekend.

The cruel treatment and horrific ending of 18-year-old Henry Nowak’s life have done nothing to cool tempers or begin to ease the distrust of not only the government itself, but also to confirm the belief in the minds of many that British police are acting as willful agents of oppression.

Protests and marches across England, with the flags of St. George and the Union Jack fluttering among the crowds attending, sprang up in many of the major cities and were often met and harassed by equal, if not larger, masses of ‘anti-fascist’ protestors.

🚨🇬🇧Patriots across Britain have risen up – and they’re going all the way!

Massive protests have erupted in Brighton, Newcastle, Liverpool, and other cities across the UK with clear demands:

The marches were peaceful enough as always, but the agitators were quick to exploit the presence of those very same agents of the British government.

Labour sees itself and its agenda as being ‘at war’ with the ‘bigoted’ lower classes it was ostensibly formed to represent so many years ago.

Terrifying sentiments that they themselves have been fostering. No one felt they had to shout, ‘England for the English’ until it became apparent the government felt the country should be for everyone but the English.

The “usual flag” is the flag of the country.

Perfect. https://t.co/5Db0oAf3S2

Now a bastion of educated globalists sneering at the knuckle draggers who protest in the streets and wave their nationalist standards, Keir Starmer’s government is using every tool to silence them as it works to overturn the will of the people and finally effect the UK’s return to the bosom of the European Union.

…Over the past 20 or so months, Labour has exposed its social and intellectual exhaustion. Technocratic in style, globalist in aspiration, and culturally antagonistic towards the nation’s working-class heartlands, it has demonstrated time and again that it has no answers to the problems Britain now faces. It continues to double down on the green war against industry. It remains incapable, ideologically and logistically, of securing the nation’s borders. And, egged on by Britain’s cultural and media elites, it continues to posit rejoining the EU as the solution to all our woes.

They are oblivious to the anger stirring inside the homes and the pubs that are left.

…Alongside all this, it continues to libel England’s working classes – just as Brown did Gillian Duffy – as bigoted. Indeed, it continues to paint the largely working-class-backed Reform and the wider populist pushback as ‘far right’, proto-fascist or, in Keir Starmer’s recent words, the trailblazers of a ‘very dark path’.

It is this demonisation of the increasingly assertive populist opposition to Labour and the broader political class that is most revealing. Labour is disdaining people’s demands for national and cultural security. It is ignoring their calls for new industries and decent jobs rather than welfare dependency. It is dismissing their profoundly democratic desire for greater control over their lives and their nation.

If Labour thinks that simply putting a new face at the top of the party will quell the populist, largely working-class anger now stirring across the country, it is deeply mistaken. Starmer’s Labour – or indeed Burnham’s or Streeting’s – is no longer the future. It is the last dying gasp of the party forged by Blair and his allies some 30-odd years ago. It was built in opposition to the interests, values and aspirations of the working classes. And now it is likely to be destroyed by them.

And when the people gather to make their voices heard in one of the few outlets left to them – and one that they see utilized by leftist groups every weekend without any interference or government oversight – the people also take note how their protests and legitimate complaints are received.

The Vichy British police represent the occupying enemy. How else can this be viewed when they arrest a native man for carrying his national flag but wouldn’t dare touch a Muslim man flying the flag of a proscribed Islamic terrorist organisation? pic.twitter.com/9pB0zqyjsY

There is a chance for the Starmtroopers to combine some intimidation with some tidying up during these street events.

The young boy’s father was being arrested. The British police handle young children very differently than American cops do.

British police officers drag a five-year-old boy out of his father’s arms like a hardened criminal.

The little guy screams in fear, desperately resisting, his eyes full of panic.

I hope the rumors of this man’s demise are not true, but the bollard does have a dent in it from his head and the force with which he was thrown.

Well. Apparently they smashed this man’s head into a steel bollard, then cuffed him. Hope he’s not dead?. https://t.co/QfuWhNh3FH

The Sheffield police issued a statement saying that they had ‘de-arrested’ the 17-year-old so he could get that head wound seen to.

Seriously. That’s what they said.

Sadly too common.

There’s something very Yookay Renaissance about the scene, the man wrapped in a Union Jack nursing his head injury, pleading with his stony-faced captors as they twist his cuffs.

Don’t be taking those videos.

Filming the Newcastle protests today. Police told me that if I approached protesters and things escalated, I could be arrested for breach of the peace. The reactions say the rest. 👀🎥👇#Newcastle #Protests #UKPolitics #Viral #Trending #FYP #CaughtOnCamera pic.twitter.com/mWHhr61j6T

GB News commentator Patrick Christys says, ‘We’re sleepwalking into a crisis.’

“We are sleepwalking into an absolute crisis in the UK.”@PatrickChristys warns that rising tensions in parts of the country could erupt if another major incident occurs, arguing that politicians are failing to grasp the scale of the risk.

He says current immigration and border policies are unsustainable, claiming stronger action, including deportations and even leaving the ECHR, is needed urgently, or public anger will only grow. 

“Why not act now before it’s too late?”

And former Home Secretary Suellen Braverman warns that those Labour candidates lurking in the wings and licking their lips at the chance to replace Starmer would be far worse.

Suella Braverman spells it out: Choosing Andy Burnham in Makerfield means the next Prime Minister.

Open borders on steroids. Refugee welfare on speed. Back into the EU. Men are women. 

Reform is the only party that can stop this nightmare. A vote for anyone else is a vote for Burnham. Choose Britain. Vote Reform.

That might well be the final straw that ignites the haystack.
