Starmer’s government has cut pensioners’ heating allowances after years of being cut, while the push for a tough Green Deal has pushed energy prices to ever-higher levels.
The song that has become a huge hit is responding to this policy. However, the BBC has refused to put it on the charts and mainstream commercial radio stations are not playing it either.
The failed British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is becoming so unpopular that the most popular Christmas song in the UK is a parody criticising him.
The Labour leader is being mocked by a song that has now reached the top of the second chart.
However, the liberal BBC is covering for him and still refuses to play the number one contender for Christmas hit.
“Freezing this Christmas” uses the melody of Mudd’s 1974 hit “Lonely this Christmas” to satirise the Prime Minister’s cruel winter cuts to heating bills.
Sales of the song soared after its release in early December, and the anti-Starmer song topped the iTunes charts.
The hit song, Freezing This Christmas, has already reached number one on the Official Download Chart and is in the running to become the Christmas number one, despite the BBC refusing to give the parody any airtime.
Silver Voices director Dennis Reed said: “It’s worrying that the BBC is downplaying the popularity of this song. There’s a liberal, pro-government establishment that doesn’t care about pensioners.”
In the now-hit song, singer Dean Ager, who pays tribute to Frank Sinatra, sings: “It’s going to be freezing this Christmas, no heating at home, it’s going to be freezing this Christmas while Keir Starmer is warm. It’s going to be cold this Christmas, so cold, no heating at home.”
Proceeds from the song are going to pensioner charities.
“Amateur songwriter Chris Middleton said the song had raised £35,000 in just a few weeks on Just Giving alone, with money from sales and downloads still to be calculated.”
Only one commercial radio station, Heart, played a few seconds of the song.
