Remainer-in-Chief Keir Starmer's mask is slipping on Brexit

Just eight years ago, we witnessed the largest democratic vote that this country has ever seen. Over 17 million people, myself included, voted to leave the European Union.

It was a vote to take back control of our borders, our money, and our future, and to remove the role of the European Court of Justice.

We Conservatives promised to get Brexit done. We did it. But now, Brexit is at risk.

The Labour Party have become so complacent about the huge majority they expect to win that their mask is slipping.

They are starting to tell us what they’d really do in government, and at the top of the list are moves back towards EU membership.

Remainer-in-Chief Keir Starmer, campaigned for a second referendum. His proposed Foreign Secretary has admitted that Labour would return us to freedom of movement.

The person he intends to make Chancellor has revealed that she will seek closer alignment with the EU.

Their manifesto even states they’d seek a UK-EU Security Pact encompassing defence - but we shouldn’t be surprised, recent former leaders have never been keen on Nato.

It looks like Labour’s true plan is to get as close to rejoining the EU without actually asking the British people; giving Parliament no say on the rules we’d take and allowing the free movement of people that Keir Starmer seems so keen on.

We got Brexit done and it’s no surprise an incoming Labour government would undermine it - just as Labour have tried to at every step since the referendum.

More surprising is why Reform are keen to hand Labour a blank cheque to undo Brexit.

Every single vote for Reform is a vote that not only takes Starmer a step closer to Downing Street, but will be taken by his Labour Party as allowing them to do what they want in power and a complacent and cocky Labour Government is the last thing this country needs.

We have left the European Union and now should be the time to make the best of that decision, not sneakily try to undermine it.
