Presumptive new PM Andy Burnham has indicated that he will not undo any of his defunct predecessor’s war on UK rights and freedoms in support of Israel. In fact, he has made clear that he doesn’t think it’s tough enough and intends to take it further. Burnham picks up where Starmer left off For example, Burnham has said that he wants the under-16s ban to be delivered with urgency and reinforced the lies about doing it to ‘protect children’. But he thinks it is only a starting point: a “critical first step”. Burnham made a milksop apology yesterday for Labour’s ‘stance’…

Starmer’s last power-grab will slaughter British free speech

Keir Starmer is using his last days in office to fast-track a terrifying legislative assault on independent media and political dissent. The soon-to-be-ex Prime minister is shoving through the National Security (State Threats) Bill through Parliament to crush free speech once and for all. This wild power-grab introduces a 14-year prison sentence for anyone even quoting or receiving information on banned bodies. It’s like we have stepped into the pages of 1984. Journalism will be as good as illegal As I am sat here writing this, there’s a sense of terror kicking in. I’m a journalist. It’s my job to be…

The Starmer government’s new ‘pharmaceutical deal’ surrender to the Trump regime will cost well over than 200,000 British lives, according to new analysis. Some £45bn will be diverted into the profits of US companies instead of providing treatment, with cancer patients especially hard hit. The report’s findings were covered by Sky: “.. a new drug supply deal between the US & UK could lead to more than 200,000 avoidable deaths. That’s because billions.. of NHS funding needs to be diverted under the agreement” The Lab right govt is letting profiteering US companies rip us off to the tune of £44.7bn by…

Keir Starmer has announced his resignation and the end to his six years as Labour leader and two years as prime minister. Starmer said he would ask Labour to set out a timetable for a leadership change, and nominations for candidates will open on July 9. His legacy, however, is one tainted with the blood of thousands of Palestinians he helped Israel to kill. Keir Starmer remembered for lives lost Former UK ambassador and journalist, Craig Murray, took to X to highlight the main legacy of Starmer’s.

Starmer’s resignation speech is a list of his own failures

Keir Starmer announced his resignation as leader of the Labour Party this morning. As such, he’s also started the clock on stepping down as prime minister, once a new leader is decided. Of course, an impending leadership contest has been the worst kept secret in Westminster for months now. In particular, leadership rival Andy Burnham’s victory in last week’s Makerfield by-election formed a very public blow to Starmer’s position. Likewise, though far less significantly, useless ex-health secretary, Wes Streeting, quit ahead of a leadership challenge back in May, with ex-armed forces minister, Al Carns, following in June. Nominations for the leadership…

Starmer’s secret Burnham attack plan leaks

Seemingly oblivious to reality, Keir Starmer has said he will fight against Andy Burnham in a leadership challenge. We say ‘oblivious’, because Starmer is one of the most unpopular PMs in history, and Burnham just smashed Reform in a by-election despite Farage’s party leading the polls for over a year. Should Starmer defend himself, we now know roughly what he has planned: NEW: A leaked No 10 document shows how Keir Starmer plans to stop Andy Burnham becoming PM “Andy Burnham hasn’t faced any real scrutiny yet. A true contest would likely see his support wane” [@Guardian] pic.twitter.com/Oq5TmYZp1E — Politics UK…

Starmer’s ‘child protection’ law is an assault on press freedoms

Keir Starmer’s new ban on under-16s using social media — just as with the supposed ‘Online Safety Act’ (OSA) — does nothing to protect children. In fact, it will harm many and put others at risk as they try dangerous routes to bypass the ban. Furthermore, it will have an enormous chilling effect on meaningful journalism. It will also chill resistance to the authoritarian state he is building for fascist Reform to inherit. Starmer wages war on journalism How does the ban wage war on journalism? Because it is designed to make anonymity impossible and works hand in hand with Starmer’s…

On 15 June, the government announced a social media ban for under-16s. Since then, many groups and experts have spoken out, including Save the Children: This announcement reflects legitimate concerns about children's safety online, but a ban of this scale would change how children access and experience the digital world. The UK Government must ensure that any decisions are informed by children themselves and by independent… https://t.co/HbwviVkGvt pic.twitter.com/m655lWUo2y — Save the Children UK (@savechildrenuk) June 15, 2026 Save the Children The above response reads: This announcement reflects legitimate concerns about children’s safety online, but a ban of this scale would change how…

Campaigners warn Starmer’s social media ban will harm disabled kids

Charities and campaigners have warned that Keir Starmer’s plan to ban under-16s from social media will isolate disabled and LGBTQ+ children. This week, Labour prime minister announced new legislation to stop children from accessing apps like Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, TikTok, X and YouTube. The ban will take effect in Spring 2027 and restrict livestreams and ‘stranger communication’ for children, including on gaming sites. The ban won’t help any kids There are already concerns that, without regulating the tech companies, this will do very little to protect children from the dangers of the internet and punish them instead.

Shocking trade union poll is terrible news for Starmer’s Labour

A new poll has shown Keir Starmer’s Labour Party is rapidly losing the support of trade unionists. And it seems to be the billionaire-backed Thatcherites and ex-Tories of Reform who are making the most of Labour’s collapse. Trade unionists overwhelmingly say ‘Labour has lost touch’ Right-wing pollster JL Partners, whose co-founders have deep roots in the Conservative Party, asked 1,002 trade union members about political parties and leaders. And although 48% of the members who’d voted in the 2024 general election said they’d opted for Labour, only 28% said they would do the same today. Reform, meanwhile, went up from 16%…
