Trump humiliates Starmer in UN speech as he slams UK's Net Zero push for windmills and solar panels - and says Labour is wasting 'tremendous' North Sea oil
The Daily Mail ^ | 23 Sep 2025 | JAMES TAPSFIELD

Donald Trump humiliated Keir Starmer today with brutal swipes at Labour's Net Zero drive.

The US President used a rambling speech at the UN to brand climate change 'the greatest con job ever'.

The UK was singled out for particular criticism, despite Mr Trump being honoured with his second state visit to Britain just last week.

Mr Trump also laid into Labour's London mayor Sir Sadiq Khan with an extraordinary allegation that he wanted to introduce Sharia law to the capital.

The US President told the UN General Assembly in New York: 'I want to stop seeing them ruining that beautiful Scottish and English countryside with windmills and massive solar panels that go seven miles by seven miles, taking away farmland.

'But we're not letting this happen in America.'

Mr Trump described North Sea oil as 'so highly taxed that no developer, no oil company can go there'.

He said: 'They've given up their powerful edge, a lot of the countries that we're talking about, in oil and gas, such as essentially closing the great North Sea oil.

'Oh, the North Sea. I know it so well,' the US President added.

'Aberdeen was the oil capital of Europe and there's tremendous oil that hasn't been found in the North Sea – tremendous oil.'

Mr Trump referred to his visit to Britain last week, revealing that he had repeatedly urged Sir Keir to drill more fossil fuels.

'I was with the Prime Minister – I respect and like a lot – and I said, 'you're sitting with the greatest asset'.' he said.

'They essentially closed it by making it so highly-taxed that no developer, no oil company, can go there.

'They have tremendous oil left and, more importantly, they have tremendous oil that hasn't even been found yet.

I'm very sure that Sir Paki Musloid Groomer wants to introduce Sharia law to the capital.

The English people need to overthrow their government. They haven’t had a revolution since 1688, and I think it’s time.

Forget my comment. I just woke up to a “simulated attack video” on Rumble. It all sounded so real with what is going on all around us these days.

let the Brits deal with their own issues.

We have a crumbling infrastructure right here in the U.S. that is in desperate need of modernization. Let’s focus on the things we need to do to make America great.

#4: "The English people need to overthrow their government. They haven’t had a revolution since 1688, and I think it’s time."

This time get rid of the monarchy. The monarchy only serves a purpose when it protects tradition. Queen Charles has no interest in tradition. He would have married a man if given the opportunity.

“...humiliated Keir Starmer...”

Not hard to do. Starmer enjoys humiliation, and is very much into sadomasochisms and homo-erotica. His favorite position is bending over and getting spanked by his male mistress.

As I remember “Conservative” Theresa May was as much responsible for getting Net Zero on the books as anyone.

The uniparty is bigger in the UK than the US.

Starmer is a human rights lawyer. He's an empathizer.

Lefties in the UK believe Muslims are victims the same way that lefty judges in the US believe that criminals are victims. It's an insanity brought on by a political ideology.

Leftism. Marxism. Communism.

Western countries are battling both Muslim immigration and the evisceration of their energy assets at the same time. It’s almost as if it was planned, coordinated, and implemented by one force.

Notice the only country that successfully threw off British rule is the most important and successful country in the history of the world.
The Brits will be conquered by their invaders, it’s almost done already.

I heard another presser yesterday (podcast excerpt) with just the two of them and indeed President Trump slammed those ‘ugly windmills’ that stand still much of the time like the past year when he was asked about drilling in the nearby seas, made me laugh.

Another reporter asked about “free speech” and that Brit asshat responded that Britain has and will always have free speech, what a liar (like Biden) as people are getting arrested or jailed for social media posts that aren’t even off color.
