Is Keir Starmer's government a national security risk? | Dan Hodges' analysis on Talk

from Back of the Stand with Mark Saggers

Jeremy Kyle speaks to Mail on Sunday commentator Dan Hodges who says "We've got British territory being attacked... so by definition, the Government has already failed to defend British territory." Downing Street is in damage-limitation mode after Donald Trump’s personal broadside at Sir Keir Starmer — insisting the US-UK “special relationship” remains intact even as the Middle East war accelerates and Britain rushes to bolster defences.The Prime Minister has moved to frame Britain’s role as practical, military and ongoing: US aircraft operating from British bases, RAF jets flying defensive missions over key Gulf partners, and daily intelligence-sharing with Washington.
