Keir Starmer has declared war on his own country - he's blowing Britain to pieces

Labour's assault on Britain began with Keir Starmer's decision to surrender sovereign territory to a foreign power. We'll even pay them £35billion for the privilege, 10 times more than the PM claimed. He chose his target well: the Chagos Islands, a strategic British base in the Indian Ocean.

Our own PM now stands accused of selling us out to China, which is building its own base right next door.

This is the act of a man who places the interests of hostile foreign powers ahead of our own. And he's continued in the same vein.

The first duty of any government is to defend its borders. Labour has failed spectacularly.

Every day the small boats keep coming, and Starmer's attempts to stop them are so feeble that if he were a coastal commander, he'd be court-martialled for dereliction of duty.

It doesn't help that Britain has a fifth column of immigration lawyers and judges, eager to smooth the passage of entryists. Even if it means declaring a balding migrant a child. Like the government, our legal system now seems to operate against the very people it's meant to serve.

Our American allies aren't the most reliable, especially under Donald Trump, but at least they're alert to the threat from China. Starmer isn't.

Labour waved through a vast Chinese spy centre in central London, while energy secretary Ed Miliband signs off Beijing's technology in our power networks. That's aiding and abetting an enemy power in all but name.

Talking of Ed Miliband.... what's the first thing a hostile regime would target to cripple Britain? Our energy infrastructure.

When the Luftwaffe tried, they sent bomber fleets. Miliband does it with green levies, carbon tariffs and ever-rising power bills. In a combined attack, he's also torpedoed our vital oil and gas industry.

Slowly we see the real purpose of net zero: zero growth, zero resilience and plenty of zeros on the end of our energy bills.

In fact, net zero is starting to sound like a secret enemy code.

The signs are there when Miliband makes his speeches, flailing his arms like a crazed foreign demagogue. Yet Starmer keeps him in post, to continue his sabotage in plain sight.

The PM has placed his most ruthless saboteur right next door in No 11 Downing Street. Express readers often ask me whose side Rachel Reeves is on. It certainly isn't ours.

The Chancellor has hammered businesses, gutted manufacturing and left our shipyards and heavy industry in ruins.

She insists she's "fixing the foundations", but that's just cover for her real mission. She's now left Britain perched on a debt time bomb, primed to explode at the moment chosen by the bond market.

Day after day, the evidence mounts. The enemy isn't at the gate - it's all over No 10.

I began this as an ironic joke. Having finished, I'm not so sure. Starmer's Labour is waging total warfare on the UK, and right now it's winning.
