Dear Editor
I was watching GB News when they showed two clips about the defence review. Firstly the PM at some factory telling us how we would be moving towards a war footing, and some fancy words about more jobs – Ha!
Next they showed the Defence Secretary in the Commons making the same announcement. Astonishingly they both used exactly the same words, in the same order, as though HMG had run out of speech writers and they’d had to share a script. More likely they had decided that they had to be careful in how they phrased the announcement, what words they used, making any real promises or being too specific!
This is all unbelievable and shocking – Starmer is using his response to Trump’s call for Europe to fund their own defence to turn us into an expensive war machine. His intent, clearly, is to wage war against Russia, using Ukraine as bait and stand-in.
None of this would have been even 10 per cent necessary if Starmer had not promised to support Ukraine when Trump stopped supplying them with weapons. Starmer is a warmonger and it seems he deliberately wants to challenge Russia. Without Starmer’s intervention Ukraine would have folded, and we’d have had peace, which it seems was totally against what Starmer wanted.
Now look at the reality:with Net0 ruining our country and closing down our industry, just how will these fantasist dreams to build a huge defence force be possible, and how will we pay for it?
No doubt Starmer will impoverish more people with an ever-growing tax rate, but there is not a chance in hell that we will be able to get the better of Russia. We are being led down a path once more that will only bring on our ruin more quickly.
There should be a way to stop the deluded holding power.
