Michael Lambert: Failing Home Secretary Demonises Migrants

Sep 30, 2023 | Suella Braverman as Home Secretary presides over a Home Office which is in disarray. 1000 Met police officers are under investigation, only 5% of crime is solved and the borders are in chaos.

Immigration is a constant problem which Rishi Sunak has pledged to solve. Given the weakness of Rishi Sunak, she is the most powerful woman in the country. Braverman invokes memories of Germany in the 1930's! In recent years the rights of UK citizens have been much reduced, whereby the UK is now a police state. It is even an offence punishable by imprisonment to hold a sign which may offend the authorities.

Last week Braverman went to Washington to deliver a speech to the right-wing think tank American Enterprise Institute. It was a speech just a few days before the Tory party conference designed to boost her claim to be the successor to Sunak.

The speech and subsequent interviews were racist and dishonest. She presented dogwhistle arguments about the threat of migration and how it is the biggest threat that the world currently faces.

Her Rwanda policy involves swapping asylum seekers in the UK for 'vulnerable' deportees from Rwanda, another terrible deal which has cost the British taxpayer £140 million.

Braverman, by removing and restricting rights and by imposing restrictions, is turning the UK into a fascist state.

Michael Lambert: Why the UK Is in Such a MESS

Sep 23, 2023 | This week Rishi Sunak announced that he was cancelling five items of obscure ideas for possible legislation. This was bizarre. He delayed and amended the net zero programme against his manifesto commitments and to the annoyance of many. Oliver Dowden, the deputy prime minister and a few colleagues took a 160-seat plane to New York to at huge cost to the taxpayer.

Sunak heads a cabinet of 30 which includes 30 ministers, 20 of whom voted to remain in the EU. Keir Starmer heads a shadow cabinet all of whom voted to remain in the EU.

In the meantime, the consequences of Brexit are becoming more and more evident. Businesses are failing, inward investment depends upon huge grants being given to companies such as Tata, owned by a friend of the Prime Minister's father-in-law.

The cost-of-living continues to be a huge problem. The NHS HAS 7 million patients awaiting treatment, the immigration service, the police, crime, education, etc, are all in crisis. Councils ARE going bankrupt; and yet Sunak and Starmer are both preaching support for Brexit.

Michael Lambert: GREED and INEQUALITY will DESTROY the UK

Sep 16, 2023 | In addition to Global Warming and AI the biggest threat facing us is greed and inequality. The inept government of Rishi Sunak is out of control with new problems confronting it every day. Post Brexit, the economy is struggling. … | HATS are available from HATS are available HERE.

This is another great video, full of common sense, from Michael Lambert. It is comforting to know that I am not alone in my assessment of the dire state of the UK economy, post-Brexit. Not to put too fine a point on it, and in two words, Brexit has f****d up the UK and its economy. And the Tories are to blame for the FU – the Tories and that contemptible man, Nigel Farage. It is to be hoped that the Tories will pay a heavy price for this screw-up in the next, not-too-far-off election. In fact, the Party deserves to be wiped out for the Tories' incompetence, stupidity and corruption. There is only ONE problem: Labour are NOT the solution. The LibDems are this country's only hope now. Fortunately, under Ed Davey's sound leadership, the Party is going from strength to strength; however, the pace of the Party's gains needs to accelerate. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: How BREXIT MADNESS Ruined a Once Great Nation

In this brief history of Brexit, Michael Lambert explains how it all started with Nigel Farage complaining about the EU, of which he was a member for twenty years. Michael Lambert also explains how David Cameron, worried about losing votes to UKIP, agreed to a referendum after the 2015 general election which resulted in a vote to leave. …

Michael Lambert: Another Week of Chaos and Failure in Brexit Britain

Aug 26, 2023 | This week, there has been a further stream of news stories reflecting the dire state of the UK following Brexit. The government is about to announce a fifth delay to import controls for goods coming into the UK from the EU.

Business confidence is the lowest since 2008: inward investment has just about dried up and our investment in semiconductor research is dwarfed by that of the EU, America and China.

Small firms continue to find it almost impossible to trade with the EU. Musicians and other performers can no longer work in the EU because of new bureaucracy.

The number of asylum seekers waiting for decisions from the Home Office has risen from 7720 in 2010 to over 175,000 now.

Workers from the EU are no longer welcome in the UK and yet the government is advertising in Argentina, Chile, South Korea and in several EU countries for people between the ages of 18 and 30 to come and work in the UK. Furthermore, visas for work, study, healthcare and for families are being granted in ever increasing number to people in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nigeria and Zimbabwe.

Rishi Sunak said he had inadvertently mislead the House of Commons Liaison Committee when talking of a scheme which one of his wife's companies was involved in. Also, it was revealed that Liz Truss had spent £1.8 billion on 20 flights whilst Foreign Secretary.

HMRC are about to move 9000 employees into a new office in Newcastle owned by a Tory donor whose business is based in a tax haven.

The LibDems have asked for water companies to cease pouring sewage into the sea for the bank holiday weekend. Thames Water which began with no debt now owes £14.7 billion and has paid out £7.2 billion in dividends over the past few years.

School trips both to and from the EU have virtually come to an end.

The brain drain of scientists, and others, continues. Crime, especially shoplifting, is increasing even in affluent Chiswick. And Michelle Mone has been seen eating in one of Mayfair's most expensive restaurants.

According to Professor John Curtice, in a poll of polls, 64% now believe the leaving the EU was a mistake. Since the majority of those who still believe Brexit was the correct decision are almost certainly Conservative supporters, it seems that Keir Starmer is following a policy designed to appeal to that very tiny minority.

Michael Lambert: Staggering Waste of Public Money by Inept Government

Aug 19, 2023 | The government is in chaos as the British economy continues to suffer the after effects of Brexit . The Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is hopeless and weak. He continues to obsess about stopping small boats crossing the Channel whilst other problems continue to mount.

In the meantime, the vast expense of the Covid19 Test & Trace programme overseen by Dido Harding is being totally forgotten despite costing almost £30 billion. The further write off of £15bn of PPE purchased often through companies without any experience of buying PPE and yet who knew certain Tory politicians who were able to arrange contracts resulted in these companies making huge fortunes.

The government claims to be paying £6 million per day to house 47,500 asylum seekers who are mostly sharing rooms amounts, but the cost is still between £250 and £400 per room per night. In addition, Rishi Sunak's bounce back loan scheme whilst he was Chancellor of the Exchequer has resulted in £17 billion being written off. All in all the government appear to have wasted as much as £60 billion.


Thanks for this, Mr. Lambert. This extraordinary waste of taxpayers' money needs to be drawn to people's attention. The people at the Telegraph also need to be reminded of this extraordinary waste of taxpayers' money and the corruption in this government at the highest level. The Telegraph has recently been running articles about the dreadful cost of the state pension and that the government, one day, is going to have to put a stop to paying it! The UK can no longer afford to pay a state pension, they say. Of course, this is absurd. But when I hear you, Mr. Lambert, pointing out just how much this government has been paying out to its donors and cronies for corrupt contracts related to the pandemic, it makes me very angry when I read these nonsense articles in the Conservative press about not being able to afford a basic living for the vast majority of Brits, when the one percenters are living in the lap of luxury. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: Incredibly STUPID Comments from Deluded Brexiteers

Aug 12, 2023 | Brexit has been a disaster for the UK and yet there are still plenty of people who argue that it was the right thing to do despite all of the evidence showing that it has damaged the UK economy as well as the UK's reputation in the world.

In this video I read out some of the comments made to my last week's video in which I criticised Brexit . The comments are from people who still support Brexit and believe it was a good thing for the UK. Many claim that Brexit has not been completed and that we are still in the EU. Others claim that the EU is corrupt and determined to punish the UK for leaving.


My sincerest apologies to our brothers and sisters in Europe for the inane comments that Michael Lambert has read out re-Brexit from some of his delusional, ill-educated, half-literate—dare I say illiterate?—and breathtakingly ignorant people who have commented on his YouTube channel. (Thank the Lord that by far most of his commenters are sensible and educated people.) As you will hear, most of them cannot even string a sentence together. And these people are given the vote in a democracy, thus deciding our future!

What these comments tell me as a person who has spent much of his career in education is this: The inequality in this sinking country is not just in wealth and income, it is also in education. Increasingly in the UK, getting a good education is the preserve of the privileged. Now, one receives a good education if daddy’s pockets are deep and if daddy can afford to send his little darling to one of the élite public schools in the country, the institutions serving the one percenters.

It hurts me to say this because for most of my life, I was a dyed-in-the-wool Conservative voter; indeed, at one time, I wouldn’t have even entertained the possibility of voting for any other party. Then I saw the light! Cameron came along, then Brexit happened – both put paid to the Conservatives’ chances of ever again getting my vote.

The rot in this country started under Thatcher. Many of us thought she was the fairy godmother at the time, me included, but then reality started to sink in. The slide since Maggie has picked up speed.

One can only conclude that we are living through very sad times. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: The Whole World Can See Brexit Is a Disaster

Aug 5, 2023 | In a radio call-in on LBC this week the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, lied about his record, inflation and his decision to grant 100 licences for North Sea oil exploration.

He and colleagues, Priti Patel, Suella Braverman and Kemi Badenoch, all children of immigrants, have done much to change the character of UK society by the introduction of Draconian new restrictions and by promoting hostility towards foreigners and, above all, asylum seekers .

The British economy continues to suffer with a further delay in import controls, another interest rate rise, massive delays at Dover and the abandonment of the UK's new product standard UKCA mark.

The country continues to slide into poverty whilst those such as Sunak enjoy massive wealth. In response to being told by the fire service that the government's new prison ship, the Bibby Stockholm, is a major fire risk, the Deputy Prime Minister, Oliver Dowden, says their assessment is politically motivated.

The Secretary of State for Work & Pensions, Mel Stride, suggests that old people who are struggling financially should get work delivering pizzas.

Michael Lambert: Feeble Sunak Unable to Fix Tory Chaos

Jul 29, 2023 | The prime minister Rishi Sunak is weak and pathetic. He is afraid of his backbenchers, the Home Secretary and the press.

With the next general election to be held within the next fifteen months the Tories appear to have decided that having no successes to boast about, their strategy will be to make negative claims about Labour. Rishi Sunak has claimed that Labour are on the side of criminal people smuggling gangs.

In response to the Uxbridge byelection result the Tories announced that they would be modifying their green policies to woo voters whilst Keir Starmer asked Sadiq Khan the mayor of London to reconsider his ULEZ policy.

There are huge problems facing the country, including the economy, interest rates, highest taxes for 70 years, massive public debt, NHS, productivity etc and yet the main story on all channels and the press last week has the bank account of Nigel Farage , the man without whom Brexit would never have happened.

The Home Secretary #suellabraverman continues to persist with her authoritarian policies of making asylum seekers as unwelcome as possible. She and Jenrick appear to enjoy being cruel to unfortunate asylum seekers whilst Sunak says nothing.

My (Michael Lambert’s) book is available from my website. The bucket hats will also be available in a few weeks’ time.


A brilliant synopsis. Thank you!

It has become increasingly obvious to me that I have lived through the best years that I am ever going to live through in my life. I am pretty sure that those good years will never be replicated; they will never return in my lifetime.

I am one of the baby-boomers; so, I had the privilege of growing up in the post-War years, a period which was filled with hope, optimism, increasing openness and tolerance. Most of my parents’ generation who had had to live through the Second World War were determined that their children would never have to live through the dire circumstances and deprivations that so many had had to live through during the War years.

It cannot be said that in post-War Britain life was rosy for everyone; of course, it wasn’t. But I write here about outlook and attitudes rather than material standards. The post-War years is a period I remember well; and what I remember was a general openness and tolerance of others – even foreigners. People lived and let live. What I find so alarming today is observing the very opposite. These days, despite the increased levels of education for so many, everyone thinks they know best how others should lead their lives. In other words, it’s my way or the highway!

I believe that these attitudes manifest themselves in the attitudes of many Brexiteers and modern-day Conservatives. Their mentality is such that they believe that everything British is better (when clearly it is not) and they also have the desire to pull up the drawbridge when clearly, because of working mothers our birthrate is way too low to provide industry and commerce with the manpower industry and commerce so desperately need.

Why Brexiteers had such a problem with Europeans coming to live and work in the United Kingdom defies my comprehension. At least Europeans generally share a very similar heritage to Brits.

All this, of course, would probably go over Rishi Sunak’s head. It will be of no concern to him that Europeans coming here to live and work will be more conducive to social harmony than people from totally different and alien cultures, many of whom are anti-feminism, anti-LGBT rights and anti- other minority rights.

Moreover, that Rishi Sunak is so fabulously wealthy means that he has absolutely no understanding of the needs and tribulations of everyday life for ordinary folk. Furthermore, that he is supposed to be such a clever, intelligent and well-educated man, especially in banking and commerce, makes it all the more difficult for me to understand why and how he could be so pro-Brexit, wishing to turn this country’s back on the biggest single market in the world: the Single Market – a market which is on our doorstep. Sunak must be far more blinkered than many people probably realize.

Further, Sunak has been praised by many for his handling of the furlough scheme during the pandemic. Not by me, however. As far as I am concerned, he could have done a far better job of helping people than he did. His way of dealing with it gave some people huge financial benefits whilst depriving many others of any benefits at all. He didn’t seem to realize that all Brits had to live through the pandemic, not just his Tory cronies.

Increasingly, it is becoming apparent that Rishi Sunak is probably afraid of his own shadow! – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: The Incompetence, Dishonesty & Failure of the Sunak Government

Jul 22, 2023 | The current British government under prime minister Rishi Sunak must be the worst ever. 70% of the cabinet are politicians who opposed Brexit and yet agreed to support it in order to get elected.

The Home Secretary Suella Braverman continues to be obsessed with sending desperate asylum seekers to Rwanda whilst her lapdog junior minister Robert Jenrick does his best to make child asylum seekers as unwelcome as possible.

Kemi Badenoch the part-time trade and industry secretary extols the benefits of her deal with the CPTPP which will add £1.8 billion to the UK's GDP in ten years’ time.

Theresa Coffey the minister in charge of the environment claims waters around the UK are the cleanest they have ever been despite more than 300,000 discharges of sewage into rivers and seas in the past year.

Rishi Sunak is weak and has no ideas other than to parrot his five priorities, none of which he is likely to achieve.

TATA have been encouraged to open a battery plant in Somerset in exchange for a grant said to be around £500 million of taxpayers' money.

Michael Lambert: 69.5% of Daily Express Readers Would Like to Undo Brexit

Jul 8, 2023 | Post-Brexit the British economy is in decline. Businesses are struggling with falling sales, as discretionary spending is hit by higher interest rates and higher taxes. Tobias Elwood, the Conservative MP stated publicly that Brexit has been a mistake and that the UK should seek to rejoin the EU Single Market. A poll carried out by the Daily Express revealed that 69.5% of their readers believed Brexit had been a mistake.

Rishi Sunak appeared before the House of Commons Liaison Committee, although he could only stay for a limited time because he had to attend a photo shoot at a hospital later. Sunak does not like being questioned and seemed uncomfortable before the Committee.

I suggest the Tories may well try to remove Sunak before long and possibly replace him with Penny Mordaunt. This Tory government are mired in sleeze and incompetence. However, for many voters they could well offer a way of eventually returning to the EU via the Single Market and Customs Union since this is now clearly what the majority of voters would like.

Keir Starmer has however made it impossible for the Labour Party to offer a return to the CU, SM or the EU having specifically ruled it out for the duration of his leadership. He is, therefore, now determined and committed to making a success of Boris Johnson's hard Brexit despite a large and ever-growing majority of the British voters being opposed to this.

Michael Lambert: Is This the Most Incompetent Government Ever?

Jul 1, 2023 | Seven years after the Brexit referendum, the UK economy is in a mess. The five pledges of Rishi Sunak are now 'priorities', most of which he has little chance of delivering. UK inflation is at 8.7% compared with just 5.5% average in Europe . The government appears to have no idea what to do and Sunak seems to have lost heart.

Thames Water is in difficulties, the foreign owners having borrowed enormous amounts of money and having paid out £72 billion in dividends since privatisation.

The story of Boris Johnson having visited the house of Evgeny Lebedev in Italy without any security whilst Foreign Secretary has re-emerged and it seems highly likely that kompromat would have been obtained during the weekend visit after which Johnson was seen dishevelled and apparently hungover and on his own at the airport a day later.

The UK economy continues to decline, with more bad news arriving almost daily.


As always, a brilliant synopsis of the dystopia that is the disUnited Kingdom; and as always, I agree with every word that you uttered. Michael—if I might be so bold as to use your first name— you really do have the happy knack of hitting the nail right on its head.

FYI, yours is one of my very favourite channels on YouTube. I look forward to my dose of 'Michael Lambert's truth-telling' each and every week. I kid you not. This is almost certainly because you say exactly what I've been thinking!

I never thought I would live to see the day in which I am ashamed to call myself British. Sadly, that day has arrived. I am now even beginning to have my doubts about democracy itself!

This country's political system is rotten to its very core. We need a completely new system.

By the way, I would like to say the following about Rishi Sunak: The man is useless as a prime minister and clueless to boot. In my opinion, he is far too rich to be a prime minister. Why? Because when a person is as rich as he is, how can he possibly understand the needs and difficulties of life that most ordinary people have to tolerate? I am not against a man being extremely rich; not at all! But I do believe that it is imperative that the prime minister of a country, any country, be able to understand the needs of ordinary folk. Rishi Sunak cannot. He inhabits a parallel universe.

I never thought I would live to see the day that, in my homeland, so many people have to sleep rough and so many people have to go to foodbanks to be able to put food on the table for their children. It appals me! In fact, it is quite heartbreaking. Most of the blame for this sad situation can be placed on the shoulders of the Tories. These sad circumstances have come about, or at least have been made ten times worse, under the watch of Conservative governments, since the Conservatives have been in power for so long. Yet nobody in government talks about these problems, still less offer solutions to solve them.

It is difficult to have any optimism for the future of this country. The Conservatives are useless and totally corrupt; and Labour seem to be clueless too. In my humble opinion, it is to be rued that the LibDems aren't more on the offensive. That Party is pro-EU, but should be far more assertive about promising to try its best to take us back into the Union as full members. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: 'Global Britain''s Economy Struggles with High Inflation and a Plethora of Other Problems

Jun 24, 2023 | The British economy continues to face seemingly impossible problems: falling exports; little or no inward investment; firms moving to the EU; the biggest fall in living standards since the 50's; the lowest state pensions in the EU; the highest taxes since WW2; and the highest inflation in the the EU. Despite all this, the government shows no sign of having any idea of how to solve the economic problems Britain faces. Rishi Sunak is weak and clueless.

Boris Johnson - Good Riddance!

Jun 17, 2023 | Boris Johnson was always a bad choice for prime minister. He is incompetent, self-obsessed, dishonest and lazy. He has been found guilty by the Parliamentary Standards Committee of misleading the House of Commons on several occasions. His response was to cry foul and to accuse the Committee of holding a witch-hunt and of being a 'kangaroo court'.

Johnson's time as prime minister is long gone and he will not return. He presided over chaos, lack of discipline and incompetence whilst standards in No 10 collapsed. He used Brexit in order to get elected and banned any Conservatives not in favour from standing in the general electi on 2019. His frontline political career is now over.

In the meantime, a French company has been contracted to control imports from the EU in Kent, an Australian company has been contracted to provide more prison ships for asylum seekers and water companies, many of which are foreign-owned, are faced with empty reservoirs after a few days of sunshine.

Michael Lambert: Pathetic Sunak Endlessly Repeats His 5 Pledges Whilst Planning to Control AI Worldwide

Jun 10, 2023 | Rishi Sunak is weak and pathetic. He was a failure as Chancellor of the Exchequer and is now struggling as Prime Minister with a divided party and a collapsing post-Brexit economy.

He repeats his five missions endlessly in reply to just about any question. He talks of halving inflation, growing the economy, repaying debt, reducing NHS waiting lists and stopping small boats of asylum seekers crossing the Channel, despite most of these being beyond his control.

Last week he went to Dover by helicopter to repeat his pledges and claim success for his small boat policy. Later in the week, he went to Washington DC where he met Joe Biden, agreed a meaningless 'Atlantic Declaration' and discussed organising a conference where he will take charge of controlling the spread of AI worldwide.

In the meantime, his wife has given $3 million to a college in California where, it seems likely he will move when he loses the forthcoming general election

Michael Lambert: How Boris Johnson Trashed the UK

May 27, 2023 | As leader of the Brexit 'leave' campaign and as prime minister, Boris Johnson is responsible for causing immense damage to the UK, its economy, its future prospects and its reputation worldwide.

Johnson is lazy, dishonest, incompetent and self-obsessed. He surrounded himself with a lacklustre cabinet with people of little talent and of whom 70% were and are 'remainers'. Brexit has been a disaster.

By insisting that all candidates in the 2019 general election should declare themselves 'pro-Brexit', Johnson eliminated many talented politicians whilst others who stood had to declare themselves to be pro-Brexit whether or not they were. 70% of the present cabinet voted to remain in the EU but now have to defend Brexit.

Johnson was only ever interested in self-publicity and being in the limelight and never much interested in the dull politics of running the country.

The British government, thanks to Johnson, is composed of many second-rate politicians. There have been instances of the ministerial code having been broken, of bullying and ofcorruption, all under Boris Johnson's premiership.


This is yet another excellent synopsis of the appalling political situation in the United Kingdom: the political and economic mess that the Tories themselves have created. Regarding Boris Johnson—if I must call him that; I would prefer to call him BoJo, which I feel is more appropriate for the dangerous jester that he is—the man belongs in a circus, not in high office. Should we be surprised by a political and economic mess ensuing if we elect a clown into high office? Clowns belong in circuses, not in high office. – © Mark Alexander

Michael Lambert: Are They Plotting to Dump Sunak?

May 20, 2023 | On Newsnight last week, Nigel #farage the man who brought us #brexit admitted that it had failed. He blamed British politicians for the failure.

The #conservatives held two conferences, one in Brighton which seemed to favour the return of Boris Johnson as Prime Minister and a second in London where various extremely right-wing politicians spoke. Jacob Rees-Mogg admitted that the introduction of voter ID by the Conservatives in the local elections had been an attempt at #gerrymandering which is illegal.

#rishisunak tried and failed to persuade other European leaders to support his Rwanda policy.

On a flight to Japan for a G7 meeting Sunak was asked what the benefits of Brexit were. He replied that sanitary products (tampons) were now cheaper because VAT is no longer applied and that beer would be a bit cheaper because of a reduction in duty.

Whilst the US are investing £42 billion and the EU £37 billion in the development and manufacture of semiconductors the UK government has proudly announced a budget of £1 billion over ten years.

Michael Lambert: The Government Has No Idea How to Solve Our Post-Brexit Problems

May 13, 2023 | The #rishisunak government has no idea how to solve the country's severe economic problems following #brexit . They fail to understand that all of our problems stem from a shortage of funding and that the only way that can be resolved is through expansion of the economy.

Whilst preoccupied with #immigration the government does not realise that most asylum seekers have no legal route to this country and instead are coming here in lorries as well as by boat across the Channel. Others who come here on temporary work visas often remain in the black economy instead of returning home. Immigration from the EU is now negative with more EU members returning to the EU than coming to the UK.

One of the consequences of the declining #economy following Brexit is that instead of 'the brightest and the best' coming to the UK, our own brightest and best are leaving to live and work in other countries.

UK water companies which, like gas, electricity and the railways, are all privately-owned, mostly by foreigners. Whilst they tip sewage in our rivers and sea they paid out £1.4 billion last year alone in dividends.

43-year-old Kemi Badenoch, an extremely rude, arrogant and self-assured woman, who has been an MP only for six years and a cabinet minister only for six months, is the bookies' favourite to replace Rishi Sunak as leader of the Conservatives and Prime Minister if he is challenged for the leadership.
