Sir Keir Starmer is in grave danger of looking like the frontman for fanatics | The Sun
Unclear Starmer
THE more voters see of Keir Starmer the more confused and dubious they become.
Labour’s leader has long been notorious for 180-degree U-turns and buckling to fashionable opinion.
But increasingly he either holds NO view on an issue — or advances one in public and the opposite in private.
So one minute he brands Just Stop Oil “arrogant” and “wrong”. The next, one of his top aides reportedly invites eco extremists to a meeting to reassure them Labour still sings from their hymn sheet.
The party and Just Stop Oil are, let’s not forget, funded by the same man.
Which is clearly why it suddenly backs letting our vital North Sea energy stocks dwindle and die, as the road-blocking nutters demand, while Wales’s Labour government asks Extinction Rebellion to co-write its eco policy.

On strikes, Starmer now refuses to say whether as Prime Minister he would give junior doctors more than the final six per cent they have been offered.
He would “get in the room” with them, “get round the table”, “negotiate”: Feeble euphemisms to disguise that he would cave in to some or all of the BMA’s insane 35 per cent demand, as he would every union ultimatum.
That’s because Labour takes £3million a year from the brothers. It is bankrolled by belligerent strike-mad unions and a Just Stop Oil tycoon . . . all of them hard-left extremists waging war on the public as we try to work or travel.
Theirs are politically-motivated campaigns of bullying and blackmail chasing wildly unreasonable objectives.

Starmer is in grave danger of looking like the frontman for fanatics.
He’s Tone deaf
EVEN the 606,000 added to our population last year isn’t enough for Tony Blair.
The man who opened our borders 20 years ago reckons we should now let in more Europeans to “help” the economy.
Except there’s a housing crisis . . . where would they live? And wouldn’t the influx depress wages, as before?
Don’t expect answers. We doubt the ex-PM spends much time reflecting on how his own historic mistakes ultimately gave rise to the Brexit he loathes.
Even now, prominent Remainers delude themselves that 17million Leavers were just racists duped by “lies printed on a bus”.
Fear for forces
IF war in Ukraine cannot convince No10 not to slash our own troops nothing will.
And yet the 10,000-strong manpower cut opposed by outgoing Defence Secretary Ben Wallace is going ahead.

We understand the focus on ensuring our 72,500 troops are fully equipped and trained, unlike the Russians.
And, yes, money is tight.
Maybe if we didn’t blow £2billion a year on hotels for illegal small-boat migrants we could defend ourselves properly.
