'Keir Starmer is completely out of touch,' says Matthew Goodwin

He said that Farage would crash the economy. He said Farage supports fantasy economics. He said Farage is no different from Liz Truss, and he said that the British people could simply never trust Nigel Farage.

The Reform UK leader said in the last 24 hours he had been attacked by Starmer, Badenoch, Swinney, Sarwar, and just about everybody else except the voters. He said it shows that Reform are winning.

New polling does suggest that the British people are increasingly willing to trust him, including those in traditional Labour Party heartlands.

GB News exclusively revealed earlier this week that Nigel Farage is preferred as the next Prime Minister by 27 per cent of adults in Red Wall seats that are controlled by the Labour Party in northern England, with Keir Starmer lagging five points behind.

Now this data explains Labour's flurry of attacks on the Reform Party. The insults are intensifying because they are scared and panicking, and they aren't just coming from the Prime Minister.

At the same time as Keir Starmer's remarkable speech, his close friend, Attorney General Richard Casey, compared people who want to leave the European Convention on Human Rights, such as Nigel Farage and Reform, to the Nazis.

Yes, that's right, people who want to reshape the legal architecture that has left us unable to control our own borders and deport foreign criminals out of this country are now equivalent, in the eyes of Labour politicians, to Adolf Hitler.

People who identify that the ECHR has not intervened as thousands have been arrested for speech crimes here in Britain every year have been likened to the German extremist Nazi Party.

The USA, of course, have the First Amendment and are much freer than us in the UK. They don't need such an organisation, staffed by unelected judges and lawyers, that intervenes to the detriment of their country.

But comparisons to Nazism is a level of debate to which Labour politicians have plummeted. Remember, it wasn't that long ago David Lammy was saying the same about the ERG group after the vote for Brexit.

Now Nigel Farage has lost no time in hitting back, telling The Telegraph that it was disgraceful, in his words, for Lord Hermer to compare the growing campaign to withdraw from this outdated organisation to 1930s Germany.

And tonight, No10 has told GB News that the Prime Minister has complete confidence in his Attorney General. Sir Keir Starmer and his fellow human rights lawyer colleague, Lord Hermer, are out of touch with the British public, and a smear such as this will only strengthen Reform's case.

You know what this is, don't you? It's the start of Project Fear 2.0, an outburst of hysteria, panic, sensational claims, and untruths among an elite class that can now sense its political project and power are being openly rejected by voters.

In episode one of Project Fear, before the vote for Brexit in 2016, the elite class on both the left and the right in this country joined forces to warn and gaslight voters that if they dared to challenge the broken status quo, there would be a year-long recession, there would be World War Three, there would be endless chaos, and no trade deal with America, before the likes of Labour MP David Lammy went on to make that comparison with 1930s Germany.
