Sir Keir was also under fire closer to home as Britain yesterday scrambled to protect its RAF base on Cyprus, which was hit by a suicide drone thought to have been fired by Tehran's proxies late on Sunday night.The UK was left embarrassed as military minnow Greece will have warships in position to protect RAF Akrotiri days before the Royal Navy will be anywhere near the danger zone.And Sir Keir announced that Type 45 destroyer HMS Dragon, along with helicopters with counter-drone capabilities, would head to the Mediterranean only after Emmanuel Macron ordered a French frigate to the region.Sir Francis Drake will join Nelson in his graveyard revolutions, no doubt.
Former Royal Navy Falklands conflict commander Rear Admiral Chris Parry decried Labour's 'strategically illiterate' approach to the crisis.Thank god this spineless weasel wasn't in power - or rather, in a seat at No10, when the Argentinians got out of hand.
He told the Daily Mail: 'The Government has been shamed into this token, paltry effort by the actions of other countries such as France and Greece. 'As a proud maritime country, our politicians should not have to be dragged kicking and screaming into a conflict in which British lives and interests were clearly going to be at stake.'
How could anyone argue that removing Iran's leadership and military capability was somehow not in Britain's interest?
Chief Secretary to the PM Darren Jones admitted: 'I think the President's frustration, from the way he's articulated it, has been that we were not involved in the initial American and Israeli strikes in Iran.' But he added: 'As the Prime Minister said... we will only engage British Armed Forces when it's in British interests, with a clear plan and on a legal basis.'
Spoken like a true human rights lawyer, Kwier..

Stand by for another Argentinian invasion. This time they will succeed. We have no means to defend it.
It has been noted by myself and others that Starmer spent less than 90 seconds in Southport following the atrocity that was committed there by a teenager whose family should never have been in the UK in the first place. However he has spent ages and ages, considerably more time than Starmer spent at Southport, at a Westminster Islamic Iftar gig at Westminster Hall. Starmer is far far worse than Chamberlain. At least Chamberlain bought time for the UK to rearm, Starmer on the other hand hobnobs with the West's opponents and praises them for being a 'diversity success story'.
Starmer and Corbyn are probably planning to go the Ayatollas funeral

What is a ‘suicide’ drone. Are we going to refer to suicide rockets or suicide bullets?
