Revealed: REAL reason Starmer hasn’t condemned Trump over Venezuela and Maduro?

His recent anti-democratic record of ‘Peoples Vote’ and BLM are not things he wants raised

We reveal Sir Keir’s unfortunate record on being democratic… or NOT

Ever since President Trump authorised the action to kidnap a foreign head of state and seize control of that country, our own Prime Minister has gone very quiet.

This is despite him coming under pressure from many sides to issue some form of condemnation of this apparent affront to international law. In this report we suggest two good reasons why Sir Keir Starmer might not wish to be caught up in this whole issue, and it relates to his own recent record on domestic issues relating to democracy.

Please note: Facts4EU.Org has always been non-partisan and this will not change. We approach all political matters from the prism of independence, sovereignty, freedoms, and of course Brexit.

The real reasons why Sir Keir might want to keep quiet on the subject of democracy?

1. Sir Keir Starmer’s record on Brexit

It is one thing to have campaigned to remain in the EU, as Sir Keir Starmer did vociferously prior to the EU Referendum. That was a perfectly reasonable – if misguided - thing to have done.

It is, however, quite a different thing for an elected politician who holds his position by virtue of the democratic electoral system to refuse to accept a major democratic result. Following the Referendum the current Prime Minister then campaigned vigorously to overturn the largest democratic vote in the history of the United Kingdom.

With the EU Referendum, the British people had spoken. Elected politicians then had a duty to respect that vote, implement it, and move on. Sir Keir did not. Instead he was at the forefront of a concerted campaign to thwart the wishes of the British people. He did so inside and outside Parliament for years.

2. Sir Keir, Jeremy Corbyn, and the attempt to overturn democracy

In 2016 Sir Keir became Jeremy Corbyn’s ‘Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union’ following the EU membership referendum. Starmer advocated a ‘second referendum’ on Brexit, ostensibly to vote on the terms of the deal that had been negotiated, but in which increasingly he stated he would vote to remain. This was his policy all the way up to its 2019 election platform.

This was a disgraceful period in history, when the majority of Parliamentarians in the House of Commons and the House of Lords deliberately tried to overturn an official and entirely legitimate vote by the British people, which had been overseen and approved by the Electoral Commission.

3. The “Public Vote”

Following the Referendum Sir Keir Starmer, who had been the UK’s Director of Public Prosecutions and therefore in an authoritative position, strongly advocated for what had by then become known as “the Public Vote”. He did so inside and outside Parliament, as part of Labour’s Shadow Cabinet.

This was nothing more than a “You voted the wrong way, so we demand you now vote correctly” policy. It was a flagrant breach of democracy. We had of course already had a ‘Public Vote’. The shenanigans which took place in Parliament under Theresa May as PM as a result of all of this brought great shame on the august institution of Parliament.

After the “Peoples Vote”, we had this embarrassment

As readers will recall, major street protests had sprung up in the US, in the wake of the killing of an unarmed black man by police. This then gave rise to the “Black Lives Matter” organisation, which was led by extremists of a Marxist persuasion who did not believe in democracy and advocated defunding the police.

A visible symbol of this movement was ‘going down on one knee’. This became adopted by athletes and others across the US and soon spread to the UK. Many Formula 1 stars did this during anthems, following the lead of Britain’s Lewis Hamilton.

Marches then began in London and other cities across the UK. Keen to show their solidarity, the Labour Leader and his then Deputy Leader, Angela Rayner, surprised many by doing this in their Parliamentary office and having a picture taken which they posted on Twitter. The now PM’s Tweet said:

Sir Keir’s defining moment in the BLM movement

As if the photo weren’t enough to regret later, Sir Keir got into trouble in a BBC interview when he was asked about BLM’s extremist policies and dismissed them, saying "The Black Lives Matter movement, or moment if you like, internationally is about reflecting something completely different."

He was almost immediately brought to account on a radio show for his use of the word “moment” by a black party member called Sharon, who accused him of using "unconscious dismissive language and attitudes", adding that these "feed into structural racism and unchallenged pervading elements of society".

Cue Sir Keir, doing the rounds of the studios, pleading that this was not what he meant, dismissing BLM as a “moment”. In the end he pledged to enrol himself in something called ‘unconscious bias training’. We have one quote from him saying:

It turned out that this training consisted of one three-hour lesson.

At least this row got him away from the scandal of having backed an organisation with Marxist aims, not believing in democracy or a police force.

Hence the PM going very quiet on Maduro and Venezuela?

Knowing how powerful the White House can be, we imagine Sir Keir had no desire for his recent history to be dredged up again, on him refusing to accept the largest democratic vote in British history, and his backing of an anti-democratic and extremist US organisation.
