On the final day of the assisted suicide Bill before it dies, @TheLordFarmer reveals explosively to Peers that Labour MPs have told him there was “pressure from No10” for them to pass the Bill!

Listen up, you spineless, virtue-signalling Westminster reptiles.
While brave British soldiers were out in the dust and danger of Iraq, risking life and limb for this country, two ambitious human rights lawyers back home were busy sharpening their knives. One of them is now our Prime Minister. The other is his Attorney General. And together, Keir Starmer and Richard Hermer helped unleash one of the most disgusting witch-hunts against our own veterans this nation has ever seen.
Let’s call it what it is: betrayal dressed up as “justice.”
Back in 2007, Starmer didn’t just dip his toe in. He worked for free — oh yes, the noble warrior insisted on doing it pro bono — alongside his mate Richard Hermer and the now-disgraced Phil Shiner. They pushed a landmark legal case that extended European human rights law into active war zones. The result? Hundreds of British troops dragged through years of investigations, interrogations, and public smears over alleged war crimes.
One soldier in particular — Sgt Richie Catterall — had already been cleared twice of murder. Twice. But that wasn’t good enough for Starmer and Hermer. They personally urged the courts to order yet another inquiry, sneering that the previous military investigations were “perfunctory” and “wholly inadequate.” They got their wish. The man was hounded for another 13 years. His life was wrecked. He became suicidal. All based on claims that later collapsed.
But here’s where it gets truly sickening.
Recent revelations show that Richard Hermer knew — or was explicitly warned — that many of the allegations against our troops were lies. Deliberate, fabricated, bogus Iraqi claims. Emails and documents now in the public domain prove he was alerted to inconsistencies, to witnesses who couldn’t keep their stories straight, to evidence that stank of fabrication. Yet he ploughed on anyway. He backed the claims. He helped publicise them. He pursued compensation and fresh inquiries against decorated British soldiers.
This wasn’t ignorance. This was ideological fanaticism. Human rights lawyer syndrome at its most poisonous — where foreign accusers are automatically believed, and our own fighting men are presumed guilty until proven innocent a dozen times over.
And who was right there with him? Keir Starmer. The man who now stands in Downing Street pretending to “support our troops.” The same man who, as soon as he got into power, moved to scrap protections for Northern Ireland veterans — opening the door once again to vexatious prosecutions against elderly ex-soldiers who served during the Troubles. While IRA terrorists walk free or get comfortable pensions, our boys face the prospect of being hauled into court in their 70s and 80s.
This is two-tier justice in its purest, most revolting form.
One rule for the terrorists and foreign claimants who hate Britain. Another rule for the men who wore the uniform and actually defended this country.
Starmer and Hermer didn’t just enable this. They were architects of it. They built their glittering careers on the back of smearing British soldiers. Starmer’s “pro bono” work wasn’t charity — it was career advancement. Hermer’s dogged pursuit of dodgy claims wasn’t principled — it was reckless and, in light of the warnings he received, borderline contemptible.
Now Hermer sits as Attorney General, the government’s top legal advisor. The man who knew the al-Sweady claims and similar accusations were built on sand still has the power to direct prosecutions. Think about that. The same bloke who helped hound innocent veterans is now in charge of deciding who gets pursued by the state.
This isn’t oversight. This is a national disgrace.
Our soldiers didn’t sign up to fight under rules that treat every split-second battlefield decision like a Sunday afternoon courtroom debate. They didn’t risk everything so that ambulance-chasing lawyers and ideologues could turn war into a human rights lawsuit factory.
The message Starmer and Hermer have sent to every serving member of our Armed Forces is crystal clear: we don’t have your back. We’ll throw you to the wolves the moment it suits our international lawyer friends or our desire to look “ethical” on the world stage.
To every veteran who was dragged through hell because of these people: you deserved better. You deserved leaders who understood that fighting wars isn’t the same as filing paperwork in The Hague. You deserved gratitude, not suspicion.
To Starmer and Hermer: history will record you as the pair who chose activist lawfare over loyalty to the men who kept this country safe. You didn’t serve Britain. You served your own egos and your precious human rights ideology.
And the British public are waking up to it.
Enough is enough. Protect our veterans. Stop the witch-hunts. Sack the ideologues who treat our soldiers as the villains.
Britain’s fighting men and women deserve leaders who put them first — not lawyers who put foreign complaints and European courts first.
The shame belongs to Starmer and Hermer. The debt of gratitude belongs to the soldiers they tried to break.
Apparently, Number 10 are telling people that we are to bet treated to a performance of "angry" Starmer at the Commons today as he seeks throw Robbins under the bus.
As entertaining or otherwise as this may be, performative anger must not deflect from the fact that this whole security disaster came about because Starmer desperately wanted to appoint Mandelson as ambassador, despite warnings from all and sundry that this was a stupid idea.
No one in their right mind believes that Olly took it upon himself to pass Mandy fit for duty as Ambassador, and not tell Number 10 that he failed vetting!
