Starmer should have supported Trump, he is weak and not fit to be PM.
So, Meandrogrog I presume you’d be happy to see British pilots dropping bombs on Iran and, if it comes to it, British boots on the ground in Iran?

Well, I never!
It seems Sir Keir's efforts as regards Iran just simply aren't good enough for Mister President.
That's gratitude for you.

I believe Starmer actually does care about the British people and doesn't want to see lives lost.
It's clear that Trump doesn't give two hoots for those Americans who have been killed because "that's the way it is".

Evil regimes need to be stood up to. Trump is right about this.
He's not doing this to stand up to an evil regime, he doesn't care about the citizens of Iran anymore than he cares about the citizens of America,
He does care about his golden curtains, his ballroom and renaming everything that he can think of after himself, and golf, but that’s about it, as far as I can discover.

Why has Trump not stood up to Putin in the same way🤔

Ridiculous comment Meandrogrog
In your opinion.
In the opinion of everyone who has more than half a braincell and knows that he who lives by killing will die by being killed.
Being famous for taking whatever you want by force doesn't help you find support when you want that, or sympathy when your grabs don't succeed.But what if it does succeed and he rids the world of an evil regime?
By acting against his own constitution as well as international law, as well as alienating all his former friends and allies, appointing incompetent, aggressive and lawless bootlickers as ministers of state in his own country and invading or bullying other countries in the hope of getting billions of poundsworth of their resources and then expecting to get a peace prize for it, accepting gold-plated gifts from countries who want favours from him, and lying to his own countrymen umpteen times a day, he is proving himself the head of a regime every bit as evil.
Why should anyone help him in his ambition to wreck everything he has a hand in, from the White House that has housed many Presidents worth twenty times the honour that he deserves, to the health of the physical world of nature's wonders that he inhabits?
Well Trumps latest today is that they are at war because Iran was going to attack the US directly. thats different from yesterday.
His team are struggling to keep up with the narrative.
I'm glad that posters have stopped telling us how good it is for the Iranians to be bombed to shreds.

In an international situation it is of course international law which applies. It is no use telling a foreign head of state that Uk law says they can't do that in a third country. They would laugh in your face. The fact that Trump is as likely to ignore international law as he is to ignore the constitution of his own country is not a reason for Starmer to throw away the international lawbook. He is pretty keen on UK law, too, unlike some politicians.
International Law. Let's wait and see how many other countries Iran attacks, just for the hell of it, even their next door neighbours, who had done nothing.Where was International Law, and Starmer, and the EU, when Iran thugs were murdering their own people. They cried for help, Starmer and his cronies denied them.
As soon as this evil regime has gone the better.Freya
Absolutely! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Sure, Let's all pile in and bomb each other to oblivion. What fun! Just press the button and enjoy the fireworks. Who is volunteering for the suicide missions?
Or would you rather criticise everyone else for not volunteering ?
That’s just silly.
Iran is not just a terrible regime to its own people but a real worry to not only Israel and surrounding region but to the world as it encourages and arms terror groups.Now it’s getting close to having nuclear capability and was enjoying playing cat and mouse with the talks, which were never going anywhere.
What’s happening now is necessary.

Yes it is necessary and Starmer should be supporting it but he is a cautious lawyer!
He’s a ditherer.Has no sense of vision and just reacts to things.
That’s why he does all the u turns.He’s no leader.
Who cares what the psychotic moron thinks? It’s one of the first good things Starmer has done.He shouldn’t have let the Yanks use our bases either.

You do realise Israel finances Hamas and has owned up to doing so according to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz? Besides which, it is up to the Iranians to remove their own government. No one else.
Trump has recklessly started ww3, just because he can, he's a nut case, leave us out of it. If there has every been a time for Starmer to do nothing, his usual stance, this is it.
One of the reasons I hate Blair is because he kowtowed to Bush over Iraq. Look where that took us. A power vacuum when the state apparatus collapsed.
The Arab states refused to allow their territory to be used for bombing Iran but they may now change their minds now.

They get killed when they try!

Are you eating your words of yesterday mael13, about Starmer being Trump’s lapdog?
Certainly not Mister Casdon: I reserve the right to change my mind/ have diverse opinions and rebuke the likes of you if I so wish.
If an American President can do it then so can I!
Ciao.

Evil regimes? Isn't Netanyahu accused in the international courts of war crimes?
There was no threat from Iran to the people of the USA.
