    I don’t have a lot of faith that a worm like Kier Starmer won’t fold after Trump yells at him a bit.

      He can’t afford to fold. He’s close to finished as it is, siding with trump would be the last straw.

      There’s no way Starmer pulls us into this war, given the current political climate in the UK.

      The two far-right party leaders called to join the war in Iran as soon as it started - they’ve both had to backpedal now due to the UK public categorically not supporting the war.

      It’s given Starmer some much-needed good press. His actions on the world stage have been consistently brilliant and I don’t see that stopping yet. He should be able to keep our noses clean during this, but I suspect we’ll be hit with the recession regardless.
