Starmer to chair ministerial meeting focused on economic impact of Iran war
Sir Keir Starmer will lead a meeting of the Iran crisis committee on Tuesday as he warned the impact of the Iran war could continue “for some time”.
The Prime Minister will convene the meeting with representatives from the Bank of England to discuss the war’s economic impact in the shadow of rising oil prices.
He told the Usdaw union’s conference in Lancashire that he had called the meeting “so you can be sure we will stand by working people in this crisis”.
It's theatre because theatre is what political parties do. Behind the theatre there will be a faint sense of relief that a new and moderately plausible script may have arrived in the nick of time.

Sir Cur is rather moist, don't you think? Moist and tepid.
dearieme - made me think of ducking stools for some reason. He'd be really moist then.
The economic impact of the shortage of oil that we're replacing with renewables may last sometime. Meanwhile, we curse and insult the American President we hate so much in his attempts to stop a rather greater economic impact enacted by new Iranian, nuclear tipped, long range ballistic missiles.
Iran is having a war? All on its own? How selfish.
Shame they have so much lovely, lovely oil, and gas. That nobody else covets.
Tammly - that seems to be it, the chance of Iran launching nuclear missiles was much too high, the chance of them holding back was much too low.
Doonhamer - it's not easy to tell who covets what these days. There isn't enough sanity around for predictable coveting.
