New steer, Keir
IF he genuinely believes Donald Trump’s tariff madness has ushered in a “completely new world”, will Keir Starmer rise to the moment?
His new rules on electric vehicles and hybrids are fine as far as they go. But they are mere tweaks.
APDoes the PM really grasp the life-changing enormity of an America which is protectionist, anti-free trade, unwilling to help defend Europe and borderline hostile?[/caption]When he pledges further action to turbo-charge the economy, will that be more tinkering too?
Does the PM really grasp the life-changing enormity of an America which is protectionist, anti-free trade, unwilling to help defend Europe and borderline hostile?
A new order where UK exporters are hammered on the whim of a “winner takes all” President who seemed so recently to be our No1 ally?
Perhaps Sir Keir doesn’t quite believe it himself yet. If he did he would surely start again from scratch.
Rewrite entirely last October’s business-bludgeoning Budget. Reverse its National Insurance hike, slash our taxes and take a scythe, not a scalpel, to the scandalous bloat and overstaffing in the public sector.
He would not double-down on Net Zero while fiddling with its details.
He would just indefinitely scrap the 2030 ban on new petrol and diesel cars, wave Ed Miliband off to the back benches and bin his delusional green programme, perhaps for better times.
He would lift the ban on new North Sea drilling — and approve fracking.
America and China won’t give a damn about their emissions as they engage in economic war.
Britain’s eco posturing will become ever more irrelevant and brainlessly self-harming.
If this is truly a historic turning point, the PM needs a game-changing new vision to match.
Raft dodgers
THE fit young Eritrean men flocking across the Channel to Britain are not the refugees of liberals’ fevered imaginations — unless draft-dodging now counts.
No war is currently raging in the East African state.
They are simply poor, don’t fancy its compulsory military service and know UK taxpayers will put them up in a nice, warm hotel pretty much indefinitely.
It is irresistible. Especially with Eritrean gangs doing a roaring trade providing dinghies in Northern France.
Any debate that the small boat arrivals are refugees is surely over.
The dominant nationality is now Eritreans, jumping the queue for a new life here to which they are not entitled.
We don’t think Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has a clue what to do about it.
Abort, abort
IT is unfathomable that the RAF considered the Red Arrows flying Russian planes.
So we’re happy Keir Starmer has shot such idiocy down.
Had The Sun not exposed it, it might have flown in under the radar.

Finally We wish PressBee provided you with enough information of ( Keir Starmer must stop tinkering and deliver bold, game-changing action to steer Britain through Trump’s new world order )
