And the dangerous threat to our democracy is a result of Starmer putting his party’s interests before the country’s
Bleak surrender
IT was bad enough watching our MPs perform like puppets for their pro-Palestine constituents. Far worse to see Parliament surrender to a violent, Hamas-backing mob.
This is a shaming, chilling, highly dangerous moment.

There was no genuine purpose in UK politicians debating a Gaza ceasefire. No one there is listening.
The real and only motivation was for left-wing MPs to assure voters they back the Palestinians.
Many are terrified not to. Such is the violent hate directed at them from Islamist thugs and the hard-Left.
Such are the threats to them and their families, with their offices and homes targeted.

Who can blame them for their fear after the murders or attempted murders of their colleagues or the intimidation which hounded a Tory Minister from his job?
Outside yesterday’s sham debate a mob screamed for bloody revolution and a genocide of Jews. They branded our political leaders murderers.
Today those pro-Hamas goons are joyful. Their blood-curdling menaces work.
Parliament’s confused Speaker even bent the rules to placate them and do his own Labour Party a favour.

For years our politicians, civil servants and police have kidded themselves it’s “liberal” to indulge fanatics who loathe us and the West.
Surprise! Britain is now a magnet for extremists.
And our panic-stricken MPs, suddenly exposed and without meaningful protection, seek desperately to appease them.
Yet still London’s abysmal Mayor Sadiq Khan lets the hate marches violate our capital.
Still the craven, feeble Met Police leave the thugs to it, preferring to collar harmless, law-abiding protesters AGAINST Hamas terrorism.
Who will stand up for Britain, our values, freedoms and democracy? Anyone?
Commons descends into chaos as Speaker breaks tradition and greenlights Labour motion ahead of crunch ceasefire vote
Duff steer, Keir
YOU’D hope the favourite to become PM would champion our democracy. But Keir Starmer now looks LEAST likely to do so.
Speaker Lindsay Hoyle copped most of the blame for the Commons mayhem. But he was merely weak.
It was Starmer who pushed him into compromising his position against official advice, to protect Labour MPs and dodge a rebellion in his ranks.
It was Starmer who buckled to the mob.
Starmer who put his party’s interests before Britain’s.
Two huge errors.
If he does win power, will Labour still always come first?
Doc’s bitter pill
BMA militant Robert Laurenson never much liked joining the walkouts he loved to organise. He went on holiday during one.
Now, as a new GP, he can still call the junior doctors out but CAN’T join them.

The even better news being he won’t sacrifice any of his near £70,000 salary.
The bad news is he might actually have to treat some patients.
