The UK PM will say that tariffs are wrong, but that he understands US President Donald Trump’s “economic nationalism,” according to the paper.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will deliver a speech on Monday acknowledging that the era of globalisation has come to an end, The Times has reported.
Starmer will make the address in response to US President Donald Trump imposing sweeping tariffs on the majority of America’s trading partners, including the UK, earlier this week, according to the article on Sunday.
The outlet said the prime minister will say that tariffs are “wrong,” but would also stress that he understands Trump’s “economic nationalism” and why the voters, who believe they have seen no benefits from free trade and mass immigration, support it.
Starmer will also stress that the fallout from the US charges on imports means that the government in London should “move further and faster” to boost economic growth at home.
An unnamed Downing Street official told The Times that “the world has changed, globalisation is over and we are now in a new era.”
“We have got to demonstrate that our approach, a more active Labour government, a more reformist government, can provide the answers for people in every part of this country,” the official said.
The prime minister already stated in an article for The Telegram published yesterday that “the world as we knew it has gone” in the face of Trump’s tariffs. “First it was defense and national security. Now it is the global economy and trade. Old assumptions can no longer be taken for granted,” he said, adding that the British government would soon “turbocharge plans that will improve our domestic competitiveness, so we’re less exposed to these kinds of global shocks.”
Starmer also talked to French President Emmanuel Macron on the phone on Saturday, with the two leaders agreeing that “a trade war was in nobody’s interests, but nothing should be off the table,” according to the UK government’s readout. The British PM is not planning to call Trump regarding the tariffs.
The same day, the US president told Americans to “hang tough” in anticipation of the international community’s response to his economic policies.
”It won’t be easy, but the end result will be historic,” Trump insisted, adding that the tariffs represent “an economic revolution, and we will win… we will make America great again.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly spoken about the period of globalisation, which started after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, coming to an end.
In late 2023, Putin noted that “it is obvious that the globalisation model, which was formed to a large extent by Western states – naturally, in their own interests – has outlived its usefulness and is in deep crisis. A new, more just and democratic system of international relations is being formed, which meets the needs of the global majority.”
With all due respect Sir Keir Stalin is an absurd irrelevant pointless moron.
He may as well be announcing the end of farts.
But what if he is just the mouthpiece for the “owners of the world” to announce their new plan or their New World Order.
An interesting take on the reality behind Trump’s tariffs is that the 1980-2025 Globalization world order is over and the new Regionalism world order (2025-2050) is beginning, with the world being divided into 4 regions, North/South America, Asia, Europe and Africa. Technology and digital currency front and center, with us being “corporatized”.
Trump has been charged by the “owners of the world’” to dismantle their old system.

One might look at who bank rolled who in the election campaign, and who bank rolled Trump to the tune of $500million, people spending that amount of money expect results, and results that favour themselves
I’d rather Trump announce the end of farts so I can watch the lefties’ predictably hilarious reactions
Exactly.
Woke lefties always demand more free farts, as long as someone else is paying obviously.
Starmer is the ultimate hollow man.
A bland dull depressing woke joyless technocratic nitwit.
Some of my great heros arose from the anti globalisation movement in the 1980s They were depicted as antisocial lowlife and all imagery resembled baddies from Mad Max This earned them the wonderful title of ‘Ferals’ . They saw the final outcome way back then and in early days of media control were met with watercannons and the now famous negative blanket story . History of them went the same way as any voice of dissent has done since. Bless them they must be all 60 now
Slimy to the core, like the rest of them.
I’m sitting back waiting for the stream of (mostly anonymous) raving comments on here blaming the J3w$. Go for it guys. Either globalisation in the first place or the tarrif trade wars are part of the Zionist plot. Which is it?
Eurokiwi.
Go back trolling to your ghetto where you belong. Happy with this answer ??
Yeah right, its like a turkey announcing the end of Christmas…….
I’m currently temporarily living in the UK.
Starmer is universally detested, distrusted and despised.
Just another obvious spineless self-serving traitorous WEF puppet.
He wont last too much longer happily.
Now the globalists can focus single-mindedly on crashing the global economy to impose more centralised control over people by controlling currency.
Well, not just because of the tariffs, but because he is a knob and the people that voted for him need to understand, I will be avoiding purchasing/using anything made, or parent company owned in the US.
How many others will do the same. Protectionist much

David Starkey on Starmer a.o.
It’s simple, take off your tariffs and Trump will remove his.
What about announcing the end of Zionism and the persecution & prosecutions of White People in the UK and elsewhere????
Or..announcing the end of the Russian / Ukraine War (Whites killing Whites…) and the end of the Israeli Genocides, War Crimes and Holodomors in Palestine, Lebanon, & Syria???
When governments tax imports, impoters pay fees to government, and add it onto the price of what citizens pay.
Even at 100%, goods made in China will still be less expensive than we make here.
NZ still has to come to terms with its over the top employment regulations, extensive unneeded bureaucratic employees and nonsense laws against business.
Personal property rights in the family court needs to return to those who paid for it and not this I own it because i lived there for 3 summers, the 50% i own is my deposit and the person who did buy it gets kicked out. Fix that ownership scam and there will be less need for housing and infrastructure.
“End of globalisation”? Yeah right. They just know that many more are onto their game now, since showing their hand in 2020. Probably also preparing for a hot war, to make it really seem believable.
The world says to America that tarriffs are wrong while the whole time the world had tariffs on American goods.
“End of Globalisation?” does that mean an end to illegal invasions of other countries and bombing the living daylights out of them? Does it mean and end to supplying other countries indulge in war crimes and other atrocities inflicted on innocents? Does it mean the end of displacement 1000’s of people from their homes in such places as the Chagos Islands just so the the US can establish yet another military base in a world where it has 800+ bases already, then claims to be a peaceful nation, does it mean we’ll stop poking our nose into other peoples’ business here there and everywhere because we seem to have this notion we are superior, lecturing on human rights then wantonly engaging in extra-judicial executions of young boys dragged from the beds in the dead of night in Afghanistan? does it mean the sun will rise in the West? Good, bring it on, then maybe one day there’ll be an outbreak of Truth, and maybe then the world will be at Peace.
I have to quote The Democrat55 on the courts being tied up with memes about free speech:
“These people are our weakest. They sat through years of fraudulent education and copied that.The ones able to sit through years and years of garbage knowledge are non critical thinking people. Slave like and good to follow commands. These people are tamed and fear guided. They segmented law, so very little people understand, often its the students who leave the education are the ones are basically thinking people.
Same goes for our doctors, who poison us all to death, then read genocide reports all day, call that ethical.Meanwhile they are trained in Petroleum products and other toxic materials. All the good ones are not proven and they believe that.Our doctors are mentally retarded, our lawyers are mentally retarded and our politicians are mentally retarded. 3 of the most retarded industries.Thus making our species, mentally retarded and enslaved by other mentally retarded people.Making the entire planet mentally retarded. Sadly the strongest and most intelligent people are found at the bottom.”
In the last UK election only 20% of the UK electorate actually voted for Labour/Starmer.
And yet somehow this retarded woke communist knucklehead has a gigantic ‘parliamentary’ majority.
Go figure.
Sir Keir Stalin is a WEF sponsored puppet moron.
That’s all you need to know.
