Media Catches Up With Starmer’s EU Surrender E-Gate Sham – Guido Fawkes

Media Catches Up With Starmer’s EU Surrender E-Gate Sham

A few headlines this morning put a downer on Starmer’s vaunted EU surrender as the rest of the media finally catches up with Guido:

• Times: Britons may not have right to use e-gates in Europe this summer.

The media has just got round to reading the terms of the deal after providing breathless reporting about “shorter airport queues this summer” before beginning a quiet roll-back once the deal was announced. Always the same…

E-gate use was one of the main benefits purported by Starmer when the deal was announced: “This partnership helps British holidaymakers, who will be able to use e-gates when they travel to Europe, ending those huge queues at passport control.” As Guido revealed the Tories wrote to the government to complain about their misleading promotion of the E-gate farce…

As co-conspirators know from last week:

• There is no EU-wide agreement with the UK on E-gates in the deal, the rules for which are set by countries. E-gate use is nothing to do with leaving the EU anyway…
• The EU is digitising entry anyway for non-EU nationals from October under its EES system.

Now Brits who expect Starmer to have shortened their summer queues will be bitterly disappointed. Nice…
