Sir Keir's time as DPP raises many questions.

Party of the People?

October 25, 20231 min read

"The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), England and Wales’ public prosecutor, has no knowledge of what records it has destroyed related to its previous head Keir Starmer, it can be revealed.

In June, Declassified revealed that the public body had deleted all records of Starmer’s four trips to Washington while he was Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP).

Starmer made trips to Washington in 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013 at a cost to the British taxpayer of £21,603. It was his most frequent foreign destination while in post and included a meeting with the US Attorney General.

Starmer served as DPP from 2008-13, a period when the body was overseeing Julian Assange’s proposed extradition to Sweden to face questioning over sexual assault allegations."

As the moribund Tories seem to be heading for almost certain wipe-out at the next General Election in 2024, we are faced with the prospect of Prime Minister who is a member of the establishment, a Knight of the Realm leading ‘the Party of the People'.

Starmer’s oily involvement in the Assange Affair should be a salutary lesson to all of us that none of us are safe without a written Constitution, that a Constitutional Court could override the whims of the executive

Disappearance of records are a well trodden path of the authoritarian tyrant ensuring that we the peasants do not ask embarrassing questions of shady deals done.

It appears that Starmer is prepared to stand up for the national interest, the only problem is whose national interests!

We are the only Party standing for root and branch Constitutional reform.
