PM appears to draw comparison between Russian and US leaders’ actions and calls for plan to restore Hormuz strait shipping
Keir Starmer has said he is “fed up” with the effect that Donald Trump’s actions in the Middle East are having on the British public, while appearing to draw a comparison between the US president and Vladimir Putin.
Speaking to ITV’s Robert Peston on Thursday, the prime minister said: “I’m fed up with the fact that families across the country see their bills go up and down on energy, businesses’ bills go up and down on energy because of the actions of Putin or Trump across the world.”
Starmer, who has been heavily criticised, and at times mocked, by Trump for not committing British forces to the war on Iran, also appeared to condemn Benjamin Netanyahu for Israel’s continued strikes on Lebanon, despite Iran calling for Lebanon to be included in the ceasefire that was agreed on 7 April.



Yep, Spain is much more a leader than the UK at this point
Sadly no one cares about Spain. It’s trying to be a bridge between EU and Africa and South America, it’s trying to stand it’s ground in EU doing all the right things, the government is fairly effective locally and in EU but in the end it’s all about money. Germany is fumbling as a EU leader for about a decade now, France is struggling internally, UK doesn’t have any feet left to shoot itself in but they are still the ones calling all the shots.
What are you talking about? Half the British rich live in Spain
It really is incredibly how much global influence both the US and UK have pissed away over the last decade or so.
It happens to all fascist entities over time, they eat themselves. The US and UK are no different.
