‘Racist degenerate’: Labour ministers’ most VICIOUS attacks on Trump REVEALED as President takes office – will he hit back?

It is an event many liberal elites thought would never happen, a sentiment many in Sir Keir Starmer’s Cabinet no doubt shared.

Indeed, for most of Labour’s Cabinet, the return of Trump is more than just a bad dream, it is a diplomatic nightmare capable of seriously harming Britain’s most important international relationship.

That is because the vast majority of Keir Starmer’s Labour Cabinet have gone on record to attack Trump.

And as several commentators have highlighted, the attacks have not just targeted his record in office, they have also attacked Trump personally with a slew of vitriolic remarks.

GB News has scoured every Labour Cabinet member’s Twitter and compiled a list of derogatory remarks about Trump.

They are words that, in the case of Keir Starmer and David Lammy, are already being eaten as the pair seek to rebuild relationships with their Republican counterparts.

Starting from the top of the Cabinet food chain, they are:

Keir Starmer / Prime Minister

In the late 2010’s, Keir Starmer was an arch critic of Trump, calling his comments on immigration ‘absolutely repugnant’, saying he would ‘not invite him round for dinner’.

Then, in 2018, Starmer tweeted: “Humanity and dignity. Two words not understood by President Trump.”

The following year, in an attack on Boris Johnson, Starmer said: “An endorsement from Donald Trump tells you everything you need to know about what is wrong with Boris Johnson’s politics.”

But in an embarrassing about turn, the Labour PM has now praised Trump for his resilience, stating his desire to ‘remain the closest of Allies’.

The PM said: “I look forward to working with you in the years ahead. I know that the UK-US special relationship will continue to prosper on both sides of the Atlantic for years to come.”

Angela Rayner / Deputy PM

The Deputy PM has also been unable to keep her slate clean when it came to attacking Donald Trump.

The ‘red queen’ blasted Trump for the Capitol Hill riots, stating: “The violence that Donald Trump has unleashed is terrifying, and the Republicans who stood by him have blood on their hands.”

She also expressed her joy when Trump lost the 2021 election.

Rachel Reeves / Chancellor

Starmer’s Chancellor called America ‘a once great democracy’ during Trump’s term, highlighting her disdain for the arch Republican.

The Chancellor has not extended congratulations to Trump on his election victory.

Yvette Cooper / Home Secretary

Yvette Cooper has been particularly critical of Trump, most notably stating his campaign for the Presidency was ‘built on vitriol and abuse’.

The Home Secretary has also described his tweets as ‘disgraceful & dangerous’, ‘normalising hatred’ and ‘undermining democratic values’.

She also branded the Capitol Hill riots as ‘Trump’s attempt to destroy democracy’.

Ed Miliband / Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero

Ed Miliband has been incensed by Trump over the years, famously calling him a ‘racist bigot’ on Twitter.

But the net-zero obsessed Miliband has gone much further in ranting Twitter tirades.

In one Tweet, Ed’s confirmed he would be attending a Donald Trump protest march, stating his ‘racism, misogyny, attacks on democratic values seek to legitimise an authoritarian politics’ and were a ‘threat to society’.

In another he said, ‘Donald Trump has lowered the bar for idiocy.’

David Lammy / Foreign Secretary

Undoubtedly the most famous critic of Donald Trump is Starmer’s foreign secretary David Lammy.

Lammy has called Trump a ‘neo-Nazi sympathising sociopath’, a ‘KKK sympathiser’ and said “Donald Trump lies more times a day than the average person goes to the bathroom. Unsurprising given that all that comes out of his mouth is utter pooh.”

He also thoroughly celebrated Trump’s loss in 2021, stating it was a win for ‘Fact over fiction. Decency over bigotry. Hope over fear.’

Lammy has also said ‘Donald Trump is an enemy of democracy’, and that ‘Donald Trump’s entire Presidency has been a reign of recklessness, narcissism and delusion.’

Yet perhaps the most famous of Lammy’s comments was this.

Wes Streeting / Secretary of State for Health and Social Care

Streeting has said: “Trump is such an odious, sad, little man. Imagine being proud to have that as your President.”

The Health Secretary also said Trump is ‘not a friend’ to Britain.

Jonathan Reynolds / Secretary of State for Business and Trade, President of the Board of Trade

The man in charge of promoting trade with Trump’s America called his actions ‘immoral and a threat to our national security’.

And on Capitol Hill riots, Reynolds labelled Trump a ‘disgrace’.

Liz Kendall / Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

Starmer’s Work and Pensions Secretary made her feelings about Trump’s first election win clear in 2016. Now if office, she has not posted the same tweet.

She also accused Trump of wanting to ‘silence’ debate.

Peter Kyle / Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology

Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology Peter Kyle got innovative with his criticism of Trump on Twitter, stating history would judge ‘Trump and his snivelling acolytes.’

Kyle also made his views on Biden’s 2021 win clear, and has accused Trump of subservience to Russia and ‘slavishly undermining American democracy’.

Hilary Benn / Secretary of State for Northern Ireland

Starmer’s Northern Ireland Secretary issued a damning tweet saying, ‘Donald Trump demeans the office of President of the United States,’ in 2017.

Benn also blasted Trump’s 2017 decision on Paris climate agreement.

Ian Murray / Secretary of State for Scotland

Ian Murray sook plaudits on Twitter when he posted a clip of him asking the Home Secretary if Trump’s ‘far-right, extremist propaganda’ constitutes a ‘hate crime’.

Lisa Nandy / Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport

One of Starmer’s more well-known Cabinet colleagues, Nandy has been prolific in her denouncing of Trump.

On Trump’s visit to Britain, Nandy was enraged, tweeting: “This is not my Britain. If this disgraceful PM won't stand up to Trump, she will find there are plenty of us who will.”

The DCMS Secretary vehemently backed Trump’s social media ban, called out his ‘toxic politics’ and described his term as ‘disastrous’.

Darren Jones / Chief Secretary to the Treasury

Reeves’ right-hand man has also lambasted Trump, most notably calling him ‘the worst minority of Americans’.

Baroness Smith / Lord Privy Seal, Leader of the House of Lords

Smith has been quieter than some of her cabinet colleagues on Trump, but during Donald’s spat with Sadiq Khan she couldn’t help but tweet.

Most notably, she called Trump’s words ‘offensive, wrong & demeaning of his office’, before backing Khan.

Lucy Powell / Lord President of the Council, Leader of the House of Commons

Powell has only tweeted once on Trump, telling him to ‘butt out’ when he commented on a terror attack in London that left seven dead.

Jo Stevens / Secretary of State for Wales

Starmer’s Welsh Secretary has been highly critical of Trump, regularly firing incensed tweets into the ether throughout his first Presidency.

“He’s a racist, sexist, sharer of extremist ideology, a serial liar and a cheat who mocks war veterans & people with disabilities,” tweeted Stevens in 2019.

The Welsh Secretary has also called Trump a ‘Grotesque man-baby', described America as ‘Trump’s cesspit of racism’ and accused the Tory Cabinet of being ‘well and truly infected by Trump and his far-right toxicity’.

Steve Reed / Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

Taking the prize for the most ardent Trump basher in Sir Keir’s cabinet is Steve Reed, the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

Reed has been unrelenting in his denunciations of Trump, frequently targeting both his character and his political actions.

Reed has called the President a ‘repulsive slimeball’, a ‘20th-century fascist’, ‘racist slime’, a ‘disgrace to his country’, and a ‘racist degenerate’.

Reed also issued this tirade in 2019.

The Defra secretary also heavily backed the campaign to block Trump from visiting Britain, stating ‘bigot alert’.

At the beginning of Biden’s term, Reed said he hoped Biden would ‘restore dignity to the high office Trump has debased.’

Anneliese Dodds / Minister of State (Minister for Development), Minister of State (Minister for Women and Equalities)

Dodds backed the campaign to ban Trump from Britain.

Ellie Reeves / Minister without Portfolio

The Chancellor’s sister blasted Trump’s ‘blatant disregard for freedom, tolerance and respect for human rights’ in 2018, backing the campaign to bar him from Britain.

The minister without portfolio also accused Trump of tweeting hate fuelled propaganda.

Commentators have highlighted how Labour’s childish, student politics rhetoric, in part employed to bash the Tories during Trump’s state visit, could come back to bite them as Trump returns to power.

Tweets like those compiled in this list will force Cabinet ministers into a difficult position now Trump has returned.

Do they go back on what they said in an attempt to win favour with America and secure a trade deal? This will no doubt invite accusations of hypocrisy.

Or do they stick to their guns and risk diplomatic spats that could harm the interests of the British people?

Trump appears to be focusing on issues in the US first, but it won’t be long before he turns his attention to the world.
