'Is the UK Being Dragged into the US-Israel War with Iran?' | BBC News

March 6, 2026 | Prime Minister Keir Starmer has defended his decision not to permit the use of UK bases for the initial US-Israel strikes on Iran after US President Donald Trump criticised the UK's stance, saying the PM was “no Winston Churchill”.

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has urged Starmer to go further, saying the UK has "became part of this, whether we liked it or not”.

“Why are we being dragged into a war without a plan?” A Question Time audience member asked the panel.

Labour’s Stephen Doughty MP, Conservative James Cleverly, columnist Annabel Denham, writer George Monbiot, and defence editor Shashank Joshi discuss the events in the Middle East.
