THERE is no festive cheer for Britain this Christmas thanks to Keir Starmer and the decisions taken by his cruel and incompetent Labour Government.
Record tax rises are about to hit businesses and charities hard, pensioners have been left in the cold to freeze, and our food production is being put at risk with their attack on our family farms.
Keir Starmer’s obsession with the EU alongside his incompetence will send Britain backwards and betray Brexit
Since Starmer walked through the doors of 10 Downing Street, we’ve seen Labour mired in scandal and sleaze, ministers failing to stand up for British interests on the world stage by cosying up to China and giving away the Chagos Islands, and manifesto promises discarded like unwelcome Christmas gifts.
The sheer duplicity of Labour, who said one thing at the election and gave the British people false hope that Brexit would be safe on their watch, is heinous.
Sun readers will be alarmed by Starmer’s plans to betray Brexit and drag Britain back into the EU through the back door.
Starmer, his Foreign Secretary David Lammy and most of the Labour Party have never accepted the referendum result.
Remember, they spent years trying to block Brexit, campaigned for a second referendum and refused to trust the judgment of the British people.
Now they are in Government they are working hard to reverse our Brexit freedoms.
In recent days we’ve learned that a dedicated unit has been set up in the Cabinet Office to “reset” the relationship with Brussels.
This “surrender squad” consists of more than 100 civil servants and no doubt thousands more will be working across Government departments, allowing the bureaucratic tentacles of the EU’s unaccountable institutions to once again infiltrate our laws and undermine our democracy.
When we should be cutting the size of the state to ease the burden on taxpayers, Starmer is insulting hard-working families and businesses, forcing them to bankroll his ideological dream of putting Britain back under EU control.
Labour will deny that they want to put Britain back into the EU, but they cannot be trusted.
The facts speak for themselves.
As well as mobilising the machinery of government and civil service to orientate towards the EU, Labour is trying to ram through new laws to empower ministers to align our laws and rules with those set by Brussels.
With a failed domestic agenda and growing public anger in him, Starmer is seeking comfort in the platitudes, friendships and company of European leaders.
They sense his desperation to secure some form of “reset” and are eager to extract a high price from him.
Talk of youth mobility schemes (immigration rights and subsidised tuition fees for the EU’s young people) are high on the EU’s agenda, as will be our fishing stocks and our money.
Sun readers should be left in no doubt that these sinister plans to take Britain back under the EU’s control will harm our national interests by chaining our country to Europe’s slow-growth, high-regulation, high-tax model, rather than addressing issues at home and developing opportunities with faster-growing parts of the world.
Not only are the actions of Starmer undemocratic, they are unnecessary.
Four years ago, on Christmas Eve 2020, Boris Johnson secured a comprehensive trade deal with the EU as part of our post-Brexit vision for Britain.
It was a deal many thought could not be secured, but gave us trading opportunities on good terms that meant no tariffs or quotas.

It supported our exporters and our world-leading financial services sector.
It ensured that we could continue to co-operate and work closely with our European friends and allies when it was in our interest to do so, but no longer be controlled by them.
Alongside this new trade deal, worth £660billion at the time, we put in place a security deal to enable us to work jointly to tackle cross-border crime while the end to free movement meant we could put tougher controls on criminals trying to enter the UK.
Unleashed from the EU, we have been able to pursue new trade deals including joining the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership.
It was Boris Johnson’s Conservative government which respected the referendum result and delivered Brexit.
A firm government which ended the years of political deadlock and acrimony that the country hated and which held us back.
That Conservative government battled the institutions, the naysayers, the doomsters and the Brexit saboteurs, including Starmer, and gave our country the firm leadership needed to establish our vision of Global Britain.
Kemi Badenoch went on to pass the law that ended the supremacy of EU law in this country and led the way to the repeal and reform of 2,000 EU laws.
So fast forward to 2025 and it’s clear that Starmer and his Labour Party are desperate to reopen those wounds for ideological reasons.
Their mission is to take Britain backwards, on to a path of endless negotiations with Brussels, to take us back into the largest bureaucratic club, where he can hand over decision making and continue to blame someone else for his political failures: Handing our sovereignty over to the EU’s unaccountable penpushers and bureaucrats.
Starmer’s combination of his ideological obsession with the EU, his naivety and his incompetence will undermine our national interests, send Britain backwards and betray Brexit.
For those of us who care about the democratic freedom of our country and the freedoms the people voted for in 2016, I can tell you now that the Conservative Party will never lay down for this great Labour betrayal of our people and our country — and we will be on the front lines to halt Starmer’s foolish betrayal.
