I have a secret for you, the British aristocracy really isn't British. All of Europe is ruled by essentially one large family of inbred aristocratic reptiles. The 'Shack of Windsor' was imported from Germany. The aristocracy of Europeans is a separate people and culture from those they despise and rule.
When the European 'nobility' are forced to deal with the public they must have the feeling that we get when we go to petting zoos and prisons.
Many of them were in on it. This goes all the way up into Parliament and the Buckingham Palace.
Starmer was the head of the Chief Prosecuting services during this time, so you can draw your own conclusion between his role back then and him being Prime Minister today.
