Trump’s supercilious character doesn’t excuse Starmer’s strategic constipation

President Donald Trump badly dishonored the United Kingdom with his recent gross disregard for British military sacrifices in Afghanistan. His threats to America’s NATO ally Denmark over its Greenland territory also weakened his standing even with the best U.S. allies. Still, Prime Minister Keir Starmer has a growing problem. Starmer is deeply unpopular with his people, increasingly unpopular with his own Labour Party, and has now badly alienated the U.K.’s closest ally.

In advance of U.S. military action against Iran, the Trump administration requested the use of military bases on U.K. territory. Starmer said no. His rationale: that this action might be unlawful under international law. As I noted on Monday, this isn’t the case.
