Sir Keir Starmer is “missing the opportunity of a lifetime” by prioritising relations with the European Union instead of Donald Trump and the US, according to Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg. The Tory former business secretary said the EU is at best in a state of “managed decline” while the US is in the economic ascendancy. He claimed Sir Keir’s attendance at a European Political Community summit in Budapest yesterday showed what the Prime Minister’s priorities are.
Sir Jacob told GB News: “The point is that the European Union and its big players like France and Germany represent the global elite, and they are in a state of stagnation and at best, managed decline. “All signs point to our closer alignment with the US, and yet [yesterday] we see the Prime Minister, the Reverend Starmer, continuing his charm offensive in Europe with the latest leg of his reset of relations with the EU in Hungary. “As ever, under the guise of smashing the gangs and closer intelligence cooperation it’s a move that tells us everything we need to know about the direction of this country.
“Under this Labour government, we are destined to a miserable fate of low growth, high tax, extortionate energy prices and debilitating regulation and bureaucracy. With Trump back in office, by realigning with the EU, Starmer is missing the opportunity of a lifetime, of a generation.” You can join the conversation in the comments section.
