Britain will ‘never surrender flag’ to far-right protesters, Starmer says
The Guardian ^ | Sun 14 Sep 2025 | Jessica Elgot and Ben Quinn

Britain will “never surrender” to far-right protesters who use the English flag as cover for violence and to instil fear, Keir Starmer has said, condemning attacks against police officers and racist harassment.

The prime minister said the St George’s flag “represents our diverse country” and he would not tolerate people being “intimidated on our streets because of their background or the colour of their skin”.

MPs and anti-fascist groups had urged the prime minister to speak up against some of the rhetoric of the largest nationalist protest in decades, organised by the far-right activist Tommy Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon.

The pressure on Downing Street to be more proactive in defence of diversity came after 10 days of widespread dissatisfaction from MPs over the handling of Angela Rayner’s resignation, the ensuing reshuffle and the sacking of the US ambassador, Peter Mandelson, over links to Jeffrey Epstein.

I predict Starmer will be out of Number 10 within 6 months.

I suspect you’re right. But what will replace him?

This clueless leftist twit is terminally tone deaf. Let’s hope his tenure is soon to be ended by UK voters.

The reason his mother kept on the throne so long was that she knew that he was absolutely unfit to be king. Don’t expect him to do anything.

Britain will ‘never surrender flag’ to far-right protesters, Starmer says.

Brits who have surrendered to Islamists would approve of this flag:

Far Right.

They say that phrase like it’s still a boogeyman with the general public, when actually for most people, it means “Just like me and my mates”.

Starmer spits on the English: “You’re all racist xenophobes and these people who arrived here yesterday are the real British”

In what way is this Enemy of the British people allowed to rule them?

You surrendered the flag to them when you made it illegal for anyone to display it.

Locking people up for wrong speak is instilling fear.

> If the British decide to go full-on French Revolution, I wouldn’t want to be that commie. <

At one point early in the French Revolution, the French army switched sides and joined the people. The same thing happened in the Russian Revolution of 1917.

So what about today’s British army? Would they stay in their barracks? If not, which side would they join?

Here is where King Charles would play a part. I can’t imagine that old fool would speak up for his oppressed people. Instead he’d probably tell the army to “restore order” and support Starmer.

Charles is a creature of the left. I have no doubt you are correct, and he would side with his fellow travelers. He’d end up on stage just like Starmer.
