Dumb and Dumber fuel foreign tension
Daily Express
|June 17, 2025
WHILE Israel and Iran trade missiles, and tensions increase in the Middle East, the idiocy of this government's foreign and energy policies are about to be exposed as energy prices surge and the world becomes a much more dangerous place.
Unfortunately for the UK at this most sensitive of times we have the political equivalent of Dumb and Dumber in the form of Lammy and Miliband in charge of our country's foreign affairs and energy policy. One's taking a sledgehammer to energy security, the other to our strategic defence territories.
David "take-the-knee" Lammy advertised his brain power on Mastermind when he thought that Henry VII came after Henry VIII. Even worse, he gives the impression of being a man ashamed of his country and its history and has argued for handing over taxpayers' money in reparations to other countries because of the slave trade. And yet this is the man Keir Starmer thought was best placed to serve British interests abroad and deal with the ever expansionist Chinese government.
