Starkey Predicts Britain May Not Survive Current National Crisis

What was said

"I think it is possible that it won't. If we head down the route that we are doing now, we face national bankruptcy. We are playing profoundly dangerous games with Russia. We are challenging Russia publicly, led of course by that ass Boris Johnson, who is asinine in this regard. And we're doing it without the strength."

Historian David Starkey warned that Britain faces a national crisis comparable only to the First and Second World Wars, stating explicitly that the country may not survive. He cited national bankruptcy, dangerous foreign policy with Russia conducted without military strength, and the collapse of national institutions as existential threats. Starkey argued that the next election is existential for the country's survival.
