This is Britain under Labour - prepare for the worst, says Carole Malone

Whoever voted for Labour on the basis “they couldn’t be worse than the Tories” must be feeling pretty stupid now. Because in less than 50 days this Government has proved just how much worse it can be.

In fact it’s hard to imagine a bigger bunch of numpties, who thanks to a few million, misguided voters, are now in Downing Street running this country.

We have a prime minister who lied to us before the election about immigration. He said he had a plan to stop the boats with his new super Border Security Command. It turns out he didn’t and worse, he can’t even find anyone to run BSC because everyone knows the job’s a poison chalice and that Starmer has no idea how to smash the gangs.

Oh and he’s just also just told the Irish people they’re racists because they dared to object to mass immigration - that’s his latest mantra - if you object to illegal immigration you’re a Far Right racist - which shows just how out of touch he is with the British people who have now said it's immigration NOT the economy that’s the new top issue facing the country.

So, why is he ignoring those people – the British people.

The much respected Tony Sewell, now Lord Sewell, who wrote a landmark report on racial and ethnic disparities back in 2021 says: “Racism is a reality and it does affect people. But people DO have legitimate concerns which need to be addressed. And I think that politicians need to be able to disentangle the two [and not] stigmatise whole communities. Starmer needs to get a grip.

“But getting a grip doesn’t mean just dealing with the policing issues. We need a Prime Minister who says, ‘OK, I get it now. I’m in charge of the whole country’.”

Ok, back to the roll call of Numpties and what’s happening with the hopeless Government.

We have a Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, who lied and said she wouldn’t raise taxes. She also lied about a non-existent black hole that she invented so it would give her a reason to do what she’d said she wasn’t going to do – raise taxes.

She’s also robbed millions of pensioners by snatching their winter fuel allowances to pay for inflation busting pay rises to the party’s union paymasters who since 2020 have paid £36M into Labour’s coffers and now want some of it back in the form of public sector pay hikes – the kind that happened back in the 70’s under Labour and which ended in 25% inflation and a wrecked economy.

We have Deputy PM Angela Rayner, who we discovered has received £144,000 in union donations since 2019. What for you might ask? What are they going to get from her?

Worse we discovered that more than half of Starmer’s MPs have taken obscene sums of union cash in recent years but especially recently to help them fight the election. And if the old adage is true that “there’s no such thing a free lunch” what we’re seeing now is the reward for years of union largesse – a £14bn bill for public sector pay rises, a bill which will be paid for by the taxpayers.

We have a foreign secretary, the idiot David Lammy, who has spendt recent years mouthing off about various world leaders only to find they now they don’t want to speak to him - a bit of a problem when you’re Home Secretary.
