Michael Lambert: Trump & Starmer Are Finished: Why Both Leaders Won’t Survive 2025

Dec 13, 2025 | In today’s video I explain why BOTH Donald Trump and Keir Starmer are now entering the most dangerous moments of their political lives.

Trump continues sinking into delusion, dishonesty, and chaotic decision-making — from reckless tariff claims to bizarre political boasting, sweeping pardons, and state piracy at sea. The US economy is weakening, tourism is collapsing, and key industries are suffering. His grip on reality and on his own party appears to be slipping.

Meanwhile in the UK, Keir Starmer is doubling down on honouring a Brexit that is visibly damaging the country. With the NHS, local authorities, courts, police, and trade all deteriorating, Starmer’s refusal to confront Brexit head-on is pushing Labour into a political corner. And inside his own party, pressure is growing.


This is an excellent synopsis of the dire situation the UK finds itself in as a result of that absurd decision to leave the European Union. Keir Starmer is not the man who can lead us back into the EU or bring about prosperity for this nation. To be honest, I don’t really think that Starmer understands economics. Starmer has the mind of a bureaucrat. I also think he is risk-averse. He is certainly lacking in charisma. In fact, he reminds me of a programme the BBC used to show when I was a child: The Wooden Tops! 😊 Or Bill and Ben, The Flowerpot Men!

Under Starmer, this country is going nowhere fast. Problem is, other than Sir Ed Davey, no other politician speaks any sense. But even though the Liberal Democrats have done really well with Ed Davey as their leader, I have my doubts that the British electorate would be willing to give him a chance to become prime minister. That, in my opinion, is a great pity, because he is the only man who talks any sense. — © Mark Alexander

Volodymyr Zelenskyy due to Meet European Leaders for High-level Ukraine Talks | BBC News

Dec 8, 2025 | Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is meeting key European leaders in London on Monday, as Ukraine's allies plan their response to an ongoing US push for Kyiv to accept concessions in peace talks.

The leaders of France and Germany will join Zelenskyy and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer at No 10 Downing Street as they seek to ensure any deal deters a future Russian attack.

The high-level meeting follows three days of talks in Florida, where Zelenskyy's chief negotiator pushed for changes to a White House plan widely considered to accommodate central Kremlin demands.

The US and Ukraine said there was progress but US President Donald Trump appeared to criticise Zelenskyy on Sunday, saying he "hasn't read" the draft.

Starmer Accuses ‘Spineless’ Farage of Failure to Tackle Racism in Reform Party

THE GUARDIAN: PM says Reform UK leader also has ‘questions to answer’ about alleged racist comments and chants when at school

Nigel Farage has been accused of being “spineless” by the prime minister and a “coward” by Dulwich college contemporaries over his response to allegations of racism.

Keir Starmer said the Reform UK leader had “questions to answer” about alleged comments and chants as a teenager that include songs about the Holocaust, and accusations of bullying towards minority ethnic schoolboys.

He added that Farage had a “track record” when it came to racism, pointing to his failure to discipline his fellow Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the number of black and brown people she saw in adverts.

Speaking to reporters on the way to the G20 summit in Johannesburg, Starmer said: “He needs to explain the comments, or alleged comments that were made, and he needs to do that as soon as possible. He hasn’t got a good track record in relation to this because Sarah Pochin, his MP, made some clearly racist comments and Nigel Farage has done absolutely nothing about it.”

He added: “The man is spineless. If that had been someone in my party, I’d have dealt with it straight away. He needs to explain the latest allegations, and whilst he’s at it, he needs to explain why he’s too spineless to take action in relation to what is obvious racism in the comments of his fellow MP. » | Daniel Boffey, Kiran Stacey in Johannesburg and Mark Blacklock | Friday, November 21, 2025

Racism Returning to UK Politics – and People Are Very Scared, Says Starmer

THE GUARDIAN: PM attacks ‘toxic division of Reform’ and gives strongest signal yet that two-child benefit cap will be lifted

Decades-old racism is returning to British politics, and “it makes people feel very scared” Keir Starmer has said, warning that divisive hard-right politics was “tearing our country apart”.

Speaking to the GP and TV personality Amir Khan, the prime minister accused Nigel Farage’s Reform UK of overseeing a return of the racist and divisive politics “that frankly I thought we had dealt with decades ago”. » | Eleni Courea | Political correspondent | Tuesday, November 11, 2025

Nigel Fags is a self-enriching, fascist-leaning fraud. He is also one of Trump’s clones, so anyone who wonders what a Farage-led Britain would look like, he/she need only cast an eye over the Atlantic and see the cruelty, chaos, and jaw-dropping inequality in delusional Trump’s dystopia.

Full Speech: Starmer Delivers Pitch to Voters and Attacks Farage at Liverpool Conference | ITV News

Sep 30, 2025 | Prime Minister Keir Starmer is set to warn the country that it faces a "defining choice" between "decency" and "division" as he delivers his speech to the Labour Party conference on Tuesday.

Starmer’s speech comes at a challenging moment for the PM, who faces questions about his leadership and speculation about a challenge from Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham.

The government is also facing numerous difficult decisions around the nation's finances, with Chancellor Rachel Reeves laying the groundwork for more tax rises in the budget due in November.


Keir Starmer appelle à l’unité pour combattre «l’huile de serpent» du parti Reform UK de Nigel Farage : Lors du congrès annuel du parti, à Liverpool, le premier ministre britannique, au plus mal dans les sondages, a tenté de rassurer des troupes travaillistes qui doutent de plus en plus de lui. »

Keir Starmer promet d’«affronter» le parti de Nigel Farage au Royaume-Uni, avant un congrès travailliste à haut risque

LE FIGARO : Le parti anti-immigration de Nigel Farage, Reform UK, poursuit son ascension dans les sondages, alors que le premier ministre accumule les déboires politiques.

Les travaillistes britanniques commencent à se réunir dimanche à Liverpool pour un congrès annuel à haut risque pour le premier ministre Keir Starmer, de plus en plus contesté dans son camp, qui tentera de convaincre qu’il est capable de mener le «combat» contre le parti anti-immigration de Nigel Farage. Quinze mois seulement après son arrivée au pouvoir, le chef du gouvernement accumule les déboires. L’économie est au ralenti, le chômage à son plus haut en quatre ans, l’immigration illégale bat des records, l’inflation reste plus élevée qu’ailleurs en Europe.

En parallèle, le parti de Nigel Farage, Reform UK, poursuit son ascension dans les sondages, capitalisant sur le rejet de l’immigration d’une partie des Britanniques. «Nous avons devant nous le combat de notre vie, nous devons affronter Reform, nous devons les battre», a martelé Keir Starmer dimanche dans une interview à la BBC. «Ils veulent déchirer ce pays», a-t-il ajouté, jugeant «raciste» et «immoral» leur projet d’obliger les migrants non-européens régularisés à refaire une demande à des conditions plus strictes. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 28 septembre 2025

Michael Lambert: UK Politics after Brexit

September 20, 2025

Trump Turns Fire on Putin and Lauds UK in Press Conference with Starmer

THE GUARDIAN: US president also advises PM to use military to stop irregular migration at conclusion of his second state visit

Donald Trump has accused Vladimir Putin of letting him down in a joint press conference with Keir Starmer during which the US president piled criticism on his Russian counterpart.

Trump said on Thursday that he had hoped to broker a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine soon after entering office, but that Putin’s actions had prevented him from doing so.

His comments came during an hour-long press conference alongside Starmer which marked the culmination of a two-day state visit during which the president has largely steered clear of several points of tension between the two leaders.

Trump largely avoided criticising the prime minister over Palestinian statehood or attacking Britain on free speech, though he caused awkwardness when he suggested Starmer could bring in the army to deal with irregular migration.

His comments about the Russian president, however, will delight British officials who had hoped to use the unprecedented second state visit to isolate Putin on the world stage. » | Kiran Stacey and Pippa Crerar | Thursday, September 18, 2025

Why Donald Trump Is Unfit for a UK State Visit – and Why Starmer Invited Him Anyway

Sep 16, 2025 | Donald Trump arrives in the UK today on a state visit – and Keir Starmer has exposed his complete lack of political judgment. Why did Starmer invite Trump?

Why is Trump unfit for such treatment? And what does this say about the state of democracy in both the UK and USA?


Our Royal Family has lost a lot of respect from this state visit, both at home and abroad. As things stand, according to the Telegraph last week, the Royal Family is less popular than ever: support for the monarchy has hit a record low. This state visit by Trump is doing the Family no favours. — © Mark Alexander

Mandelson Scandal Could Disrupt US-UK Relations, Warns Trump Ally | Lee Cohen

Sep 16, 2025 | "This is certainly very disruptive. The timing couldn't be worse. And I think those are the most alarming things on the president's mind."

Keir Starmer's "catastrophic problems" with Angela Rayner and the Peter Mandelson scandal could impede on previous trade talks and create diplomatic speed bumps, says former adviser on Great Britain to the US House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee, Lee Cohen.

Troubled Starmer ‘Reeks of Defeat’ after Mandelson Fiasco

THE OBSERVER: Pressure mounts on the prime minister as Epstein scandal reaches the doors of No 10

Keir Starmer’s grip on his premiership is under stress, with Labour MPs increasingly speculating about leadership challenges and calling for his chief of staff to be removed.

An already fractious party, with MPs furious about everything from the handling of Gaza and the welfare rebellion to the departure of Angela Rayner and subsequent reshuffle, came to boiling point last week over Starmer’s handling of the scandal surrounding Peter Mandelson.

Starmer and his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney, are being dogged by questions about when the prime minister learned the details of a cache of emails published by Bloomberg, in which Lord Mandelson expressed support for the convicted child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. » | Catherine Neilan, Whitehall Editor | Sunday, September 14, 2025

Truth To Power: Labour: From Landslide to CHAOS in 14 Months

September 13, 2025

So many western politicians are USELESS these days! Why? Because they go into politics for all the wrong reasons. They enter politics to MAKE MONEY, MAKE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES, FOR THE PRESTIGE IT OFFERS THEM, and FOR POWER. These are all the wrong reasons to enter politics!

In years gone by, before the age of the career politician, people went into politics AFTER BEING SUCCESSFUL in their chosen fields. They had made their money, so now they wanted to GIVE SOMETHING BACK—THEIR SERVICE—TO THEIR COMMUNITY AND TO THEIR COUNTRY.

Because they generally had plenty of money behind them, they were generally not bribable, or at least far less so.

Further, in years gone by, people entered politics from all kinds of professions and fields, so they brought with them into politics a plethora of skills and knowledge. Then, all was changed; then graduates started coming out of universities and going into politics to make their careers, make money, and make a name for themselves. This is when things started to go awry. This is when people started going into politics for all the wrong reasons. We can all see the results this change has brought with it! — © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: Why the UK Economy Will Collapse without Immigrants

Aug 30, 2025 | The UK economy is not doing well. The much-needed growth is not happening and the national debt is almost 100% of GDP whilst interest amounts to £116 billion per annum or over £2 billion per week. We know that taxes will have to rise in the forthcoming budget.

The UK has an ageing population who are living longer and costing more in terms of care and medical treatment. To maintain our current population level we need a birth rate of 2.1 children per woman whereas the current rate is just 1.4. This means that the proportion of the population who are earning is diminishing and so is taxable income. This can only be solved by immigration.

However, Nigel Farage the man who brought us the disastrous Brexit, and his party, Reform UK have been pursuing a very public anti-immigration campaign. At the same time, the government under Keir Starmer have made it almost impossible for anyone to come to the UK to work unless they first secure employment at a rate of at least £37,000 per annum.

Without a larger workforce expanding the tax-take for the government, it is difficult to see how the UK will survive financially.

For the time being, Farage leads an ever-growing anti-immigration policy which both Starmer and the Conservatives have decided to follow.

At the start of this video, I discuss last week's cabinet meeting in the White House which was little more than an event to boost the ego of Donald Trump who ranted about how good he is for 45 minutes before being praised by most of his Secretaries of State. Steve Witkoff, who features in this video, was exceptionally embarrassing in lavishing praise upon the president.

Michaell Lambert: Will Keir Starmer Make It to the Next Election?

Aug 9, 2025 | In latest polling, the approval rating for Keir Starmer, the UK Prime Minister, is minus 44.

In this video, I discuss how Keir Starmer is not up to the job of being the UK Prime Minister and how he may well not remain leader until the next general election in 4 years’ time.

I question his political judgement and cite the ten pledges he made when campaigning to become Labour leader and how he has failed to fulfil most of these.

With his weak leadership, constant fear of challenges from the Daily Express and the Reform UK of Nigel Farage, Starmer is too cautious and failing to lead. Above all his absolute refusal to consider any way of reversing the terrible economic damage of Brexit means that the UK is destined to continue to decline.

Rob Groves: Is This Labour’s Most AUTHORITARIAN Move Yet?

Aug 2, 2025 | The Labour government has gone full authoritarian, banning the direct action group Palestine Action as a “terrorist organisation” and criminalising peaceful protest. Elderly citizens are being arrested for holding Palestinian flags and Private Eye cartoons. In this week’s Truth To Power, I expose Labour’s chilling embrace of Tory anti-protest laws, and how it’s destroying civil liberties in Britain.
