Historian and broadcaster David Starkey delivers an honest critique of modern Britain’s decline—from constitutional vandalism to the death of democratic accountability. Starkey traces the unraveling of centuries-old English liberties, exposing how Tony Blair’s government dismantled parliamentary sovereignty, politicised the judiciary, and empowered unelected quangos to rule by decree. In this interview, Starkey explains why Britain is no longer a true democracy, how legal and cultural revolutions hollowed out national identity, and why the country stands at a historic crossroads. Starkey makes the case for restoring tradition, courage, and a politics rooted in freedom.
