    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.

        His domestic politics have been a disaster, but his international stuff has been pretty damn good. Mostly…

        I take that back, the government’s position on Israel/Gaza is a disgusting… Apart from that though!
