Trump, Starmer And The Strait Of Hormuz Crisis
from Back of the Stand with Mark Saggers
Is Britain looking weak on the world stage? On this episode of Talk War, Jeremy Kyle reacts as Donald Trump publicly criticises Sir Keir Starmer over Britain’s response to the Iran conflict, with Labour MP Karl Turner accusing the Prime Minister of damaging trust through “flip-flopping” over bases, ships and military support.Jeremy also speaks to Fleur Hassan Nahoum, Special Envoy for the Israeli Foreign Minister, who says Britain must face up to the Iranian threat after years of terror funding, regional destabilisation and attacks on Israel. She warns that Keir Starmer’s mixed messaging is angering allies on all sides, while Jeremy also tackles the growing row over anti-Israel protests in Britain and what they say about the country’s political and cultural direction.Plus, former Royal Navy commander Tom Sharpe and Rear Admiral Mike Hewitt examine the military reality behind the Strait of Hormuz crisis, the shrinking strength of Britain’s armed forces, the HMS Dragon delay, and whether the UK is now too underpowered to play a serious role in a fast-moving global security emergency.
