Keir Starmer: Britain Agrees to Help Bomb Iran and Will Work with US after Strikes

Mar 1, 2026 | The UK has agreed to a US request to use British military bases to strike Iranian missile sites, Sir Keir Starmer has confirmed.

But the UK Prime Minister said the UK “will not join offensive action” in Iran, adding: “We all remember the mistakes of Iraq and we have learned those lessons.”

It comes as Iran continues its assault on the Middle East in revenge attacks for the joint US-Israeli operation yesterday which saw missiles rain down on Tehran.


This man is so weak and ineffectual. Why the hell are we getting involved? Let America and Israel do their own dirty work! This is so dumb and stupid. — © Mark Alexander
