Sir Keir Starmer faced major backlash on GB News' Patrick Christys Tonight, as the host was joined by former editor Kelvin MacKenzie to discussthe Prime Minister's controversial response to the US strikes in Iran. With looming fears and rumours of World War 3, the politician faced backlash for swerving a question on whether the UK supported the strikes, as he neither endorses nor criticises President Donald Trump.
Kelvin stated: "He may have a view, but he's not going to tell it, and why isn't he going to say it? I presumed there must be a very good reason, they've all taken the code of omerta. The editor claimed: "I can only believe and I'll repeat it again, they don't want to upset that the Muslim voters in the country and that is where their actual heart lies, their heart lies on keeping the people of Bradford on side, not keeping the nation as a whole on side." He added: "It's a disgraceful performance and this is typical, there is no wall that Starmer won't duck behind."
Highlighting Starmer's previous legal career, Kelvin continued: "It's an incredible fact, remember lawyers don't really believe in anything. They believe in the next person paying money.
"Right now he has to make decisions and he has to make policy, and actually, as we've seen, whether it's winter fuel or welfare, all he's ever good at is of dancing on the hatpin or hoping that the problem goes away."
The former editor added: "Obama used to say, 'when it comes across my desk, there are no easy solutions' and his solution always is the same. Yes, one minute, no the next minute and it's because he doesn't know his own mind.
"He doesn't want to say anything about this war, it's a disgrace and we've got him for another four years."
Patrick added: "Obviously, the Prime Minister will presumably push back on that, Lord Herman might and say they're doing a good job and all that, that's their view, but the world is watching.
"The world is holding its breath, in many cases, it certainly was a couple of hours ago when bombs were flying across and all over the Middle East, and I haven't heard a peep out of our Prime Minister about it all.
"He's not coming back to Parliament, we've got Palestine Action taking to the streets in Britain, people wandering around with signs praising the Ayatollah and where is the Government on it?"
The broadcaster stated: "There are moments for leadership and unfortunately Keir Starmer is going to have to live with the fact that as long as the average man or woman on the street is concerned, he's gone missing."
