Starmer gives go-ahead for US to use UK military for strikes on Iran

Sir Keir Starmer has reversed his previous stance, allowing the U.S. to use UK military bases for operations against Iran. This decision follows a change in circumstances, with Starmer citing a growing risk to British lives from Iran's actions. He emphasized that the bases will not be used for bombing but for protecting British citizens from missile attacks.

Critics are concerned that this move indicates a slippery slope towards military involvement in Iran. Starmer insists the goal is collective self-defense and protecting lives in the region. Calls for a parliamentary vote on this decision are already underway, with opposition leaders demanding a thorough legal explanation.
