Keir Starmer: Enemy of Freedom | Exposing the PM’s Authoritarian Past

Dec 23, 2024 | Keir Starmer once promised his government would tread more lightly on our lives. Yet, since taking office in July, people have been locked up for offensive tweets. The policing of ‘non-crime hate incidents’ is set to be expanded. He even wants to dictate how we can enjoy ourselves, by clamping down on smoking, drinking and ‘junk food’. Here, Fraser Myers exposes Starmer’s authoritarian past. As director of public prosecutions, he pushed for people to be prosecuted over jokes, he trampled on press freedom and weakened the presumption of innocence. The PM may be a notorious flip-flopper, but he has always been an enemy of liberty.
