Sir Keir Starmer Poses a Threat to the Human Rights of the British People
A fanfare of approbation greeted c’s arrival in the UK on Saturday. “I’m delighted that Alaa Abd el-Fattah is back… and has been reunited with his loved ones, who must be feeling profound relief,” Sir Keir gushed on X, before adding: “Alaa’s case has been a top priority for my government since we came to office.” Yvette Cooper, the Foreign Secretary, also celebrated his arrival, along with the Deputy Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Justice, David Lammy. Without exception, they emphasised that el-Fattah’s entry into Britain was of great importance, even a top priority, for the Labour Government.
In 2019 Alaa Abd el-Fattah was jailed in Egypt for “spreading fake news”. While in prison, in an effort to raise the profile of his case and apply diplomatic pressure to the Egyptian Government, he applied for and was granted British citizenship through his mother. After his release earlier this year, he was issued with a travel ban by the Egyptian authorities, who refused to recognise his recently acquired dual-nationality. The travel ban was subsequently lifted after pressure from both Labour ministers and civil servants, notably Jonathan Powell, Sir Keir Starmer’s National Security Advisor.
BBC journalists and celebrities like Emma Thompson view el-Fattah as a human rights activist to be lauded and fawned over, as do, I presume, Government ministers and state apparatchiks. Why else would they work so hard to welcome a man with such a flimsy link to Britain?
But he’s not a human rights activist. He’s an anti-British and anti-Semitic bigot. He’s called for Zionists to be killed, “including civilians”, urged Londoners to set fire to Downing Street, told supporters to kill police officers and explicitly declared his hatred for white people. He also referred to the British as “dogs and monkeys”.
Sir Keir of course pleads ignorance. But this seems unlikely. And even if he was ignorant of the repulsive views of a man who clearly despises Britain, that’s no defence. At best it shows a blasé indifference to national loyalty and security. As does the disgraceful decision to grant him citizenship in the first place – a decision made by the spineless Tories back in 2021. His mother was born here because his grandmother happened to be studying in England at the time. Does citizenship mean so little? Should a foreign-born individual with such a tenuous connection to Britain be granted such a status, with all the legal rights and obligations that go with it?
Starmer’s commitment to universal human rights – which necessarily implies open borders – is now a threat to national security and, paradoxically, the human rights of the British people. By welcoming el-Fattah, a virulent anti-Semite, Starmer has violated the right of our Jewish community to feel secure in their own land. His refusal to police the pro-Palestinian, anti-Semitic hate marchers since October 2023 has also trampled on the security of British Jews and infringed upon their liberty – Central London has become a no-go zone.
Moreover, and most tellingly, the illegal migrants that Starmer refuses to deter, instead showering them with food, shelter and other goodies, continue to threaten the security of the British people. Rhiannon Whyte was savagely murdered by a Sudanese psychopath who arrived by small boat in July 2024. Her right to life snuffed out by Starmer’s commitment to the human rights of criminals who have broken in to our country. According to the Daily Telegraph, back in August 2025, over 200 people living in asylum seeker hotels were charged with offences “this year”. That included 109 violent offences and 44 sexual. Women have been terrorized and girls have been raped. But don’t worry: Sir Keir’s committed to universal human rights. The trouble is, these ‘universal’ human rights don’t appear to be ‘universal’ at all. They don’t include the human rights of the British people.
Such a pipe dream is axiomatic of the Left. They are completely divorced from reality, making policy based on the musings of John and Yoko. And because the real life consequences of such quixotic dogma are so dire, like all far-Left ideologues before him, Starmer needs to censor the truth and shut the naysayers up. But how? He locks people up for speech and takes away their only recourse to fair justice – trial by jury.
The case of Alaa Abd el-Fattah is a timely reminder. Starmer is inflicting untold damage on our country and our people. He ‘prioritises’ those who hate us and, in doing so, threatens our national security and the human rights of our people. How ironic. The human rights lawyer is violating the human rights of the British people – all in the name of universal human rights. By welcoming el-Fattah and refusing to deter illegal migrants from the third world, he is placing us all in danger and, in particular, our hard-working, loyal Jewish community. And if anyone complains they’ll be locked up – without recourse to a fair trial.

Who does Keir Starmer and the cabinet work for? and give their allegiance to?
All evidence would point to Islam, and not the UK and its indigenous people.
These people are traitors and should be arrested and removed from office, they are a danger to the people of this country.
Whoever Kneel works for, probably directs the execrable Tories as well. For they bear equal responsibility over this Egyptian import. At best they prioritised virtue signalling over facts. However, it’s probably deeper than that, as over half of them STILL worship at the EU/WEF/UN altar. They didn’t lift a finger to stop migration. Plenty of excuses though.
Don’t ever trust the bar-stewards again.
All involved deserve s fair trial and an even fairer hanging.
Figuratively speaking of course.
Oh, undoubtedly.
Seconded 👍
where are the Armed Forces in the country’s hour of need?
Emptying the bins in Birmingham??
Excellent article. Has anyone heard the BBC report exactly what El-Fattah posted? All they show is an edited statement (omitting these facts) from a conservative politician calling him a scumbag, as if to make a point about demonising a man fighting for democracy. Even if that changes, why were those cuts made at all?
Oh the delicious anticipation. By any measure of recent times, this odious person should be up before the beak and found guilty of incitement to commit violence. So if others have been imprisoned for lesser online messages, he must be. The thought of him being released by the Egyptians and then imprisoned by the UK is wonderful. Which country would he then try and fool that he is a lovely cuddly person, treated so badly by the country he is living in and please can he go and live there as Britain, like Egypt, is such a nasty place suppressing his right to free speech.
Starmer is a traitor to his country and should be tried for treason.
Yes, at the top of the list of concerns for most of the British people. Making ends meet, educating our children and rhe plight of Alaa Abd el-Fattah.
Obviously he’s some sort of asset of the UK state. And we’re all meant to care about these games our elites are involved in.
It’s not really a surprise that the leadership of the Party of Anglophobes and Anti-Whitists enthusiastically welcomes an anglophobe and anti-whitist into our country.
Kneel’s only commitment is to the destruction of Britain and its indigenous people. This absolute Next Tuesday will go to his grave, and hopefully very soon, having enjoyed a life the like of which only this country could offer. All being well he will receive a truly warm reception at the gates of hell, the evil traitor.
That the first duty of government is to protect the nation, the security and safety of its citizens, is a universally accepted constitutional principle and a fundamental function of any state. The British state, unlike any normal fuctioning state, stood by and facilitated the industrial scale rape of vulnerable girls by predominantly Pakistani Mohammedans. The MoD secretly flew Afghan Mohammedans and their families into the country, apparently without understanding how dangerous this is for us. These “rescues” of groups who, even on a cursory assessment, would be seen to be enemies of the indigenous settled population, are evidence that the State and those elected to uphold the principle do not care either about the principle or what becomes of us as a result of its breach. They are more concerned with their own personal aggrandisement.
My only criticism of this article is although it mentions the anti-whitism of the repulsive individual Starmer has ‘prioritised’, it rather focuses on his anti-semitism and how Jewish people feel. I think this is telling, presumably white people have no similar feeling about his calls for violence against white people?
I agree with your criticism of the article. Most MSM reports down-play his anti-white racism. His prejudice was revealed by referring to white people as “a blight on the earth” and arguing that fear among white men should increase and suggesting random shootings as a means to do so. This last one is particularly alarming. His import is unavoidably a serious breach of the principle. His apology was 15 years late and should be treated as insincere. Compare Lucy Connolly’s removal of her tweet within hours.
