When this latest conflict in the Middle East is over, historians will look back at the UK and ponder over several things.
They’ll wonder why, in the first week of the war, the UK media, almost overwhelmingly, spent it attacking the Prime Minister.
And why our patriotism was hijacked by the right-wing media to lambast our own government.
How every channel was able to find ‘experts’ and historians to make fools of themselves and display extremely anti-British behaviour.
And they wonder why the leader of His Majesty’s Opposition spent days of her life working against the country.
Oh, and lastly, why the leader of a tiny minority party was in the USA, engaged in treason and traitorous behaviour with a foreign despot, to undermine our government.
We're in such a messed up time, a branch of reality fabricated by the far-right and their pet media outlets.
Whether you like Starmer or not, this is not the time to go after him. All that's unfolding is a crooked legacy being built around those who'd prefer to sell their souls and work against the country in a time of war.
