Starmer made the wrong call and Britain has paid a heavy price ever since. The cost to national dignity and the public purse will be on painful show this weekend as Trump, pursued by the Epstein scandal and angry protesters, makes an expensively policed, ostensibly private visit to his golf courses in Scotland.

The UK's foreign secretary expressed horror at the targeting of starving Palestinians by the Israeli military, highlighting the need for humanitarian aid and potential sanctions.

Keir Starmer recently expressed optimism about U.S. non-involvement in conflicts, believing that efforts for de-escalation were effective, but events rapidly shifted with a significant U.S. strike.

Lammy emphasized that the key focus was on military targets and indicated that Western allies were awaiting assessments of the strikes' impact on Iran's nuclear capabilities.
