“Never be separated from the Americans.”
That was the advice Winston Churchill gave to his countrymen in the last meeting with his cabinet in 1955.
Unfortunately for the United Kingdom, current Prime Minister Keir Starmer has clearly ignored that advice. He appears to be doing his best to pull the plug and drain whatever is left of the once mighty and revered British Empire.
On Tuesday, while at a meeting with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, President Donald Trump lambasted Starmer’s response to America’s ongoing military operation in Iran.
Trump said he was “not happy” with the U.K. for its initial decision to restrict U.S. access to launching strikes from the Diego Garcia base in the Chagos Islands.
Trump said that blocking use of the base made it necessary for U.S. military aircraft to go on much longer and more difficult missions from elsewhere to conduct their strikes. He then went with the brutal putdown, “This is not Winston Churchill we are dealing with.”

The UK is now pretty much a Muslim chithole.
The UK has lots of sheep and goats and the Arab world has lots of sheep and goats. With that shared interest it’s no wonder the UK feels comfortable with the Muslim horde.

The picture is, unfortunately, somewhat worse than that. As I type this, the UK is unable to defend their base in Cyprus against missile attacks from Iran, and most estimates are that it will take them 10 days or more to get a missile defense destroyer in place. (Sailing time plus pre-departure procedures.)
Somewhere I read that the Greeks will try to help out, but, the UK's missile defense destroyers are superior - when they are fit to sail.
Almost across the board, the UK's defense capabilities have really withered... :-(
The Britons made a big mistake in 2024 voting for him. Since that time they’ve been reaping the fruits.
