It’s appalling that Sir Keir Starmer, the leader of a nation with the history of the once-Great Britain, is currently not simply groveling before China’s Communist Emperor Xi Jinping. He’s actively appeasing freedom’s mortal enemy.
Last week, the U.K. approved a vast new Chinese embassy in London. Now, Starmer wants Parliament to bless a disastrous deal likely to result in the Chinese taking over a strategic U.S. military installation called Diego Garcia.
Dozens of influential British and American patriots are issuing today a powerful public statement opposing this unforced error of epic proportions.
Coming in the wake of Canada’s odious “separate peace” with the Chinese Communist Party last week, London’s pursuit of a new “special relationship” with Beijing can only further embolden Xi Jinping – and invite his aggression at the expense of Taiwan and what else is left of the Free World.
