Starmer signals need for closer ties with EU in light of Iran oil crisis 'storm'
Sir Keir Starmer has insisted Labour’s manifesto red lines on closer relations with Europe remain, as he signalled the Government will seek stronger ties with the EU in light of the Iran war’s global impact.
The Prime Minister said the “volatile” international situation caused by the US-Israeli conflict with Tehran meant Britain’s “long-term national interest requires closer partnership with our allies in Europe and with the European Union”.
Keir Starmer hardly needs to spell it out. He would deny it of course, but all we can read is his behaviour and that is clear enough - the managed decline of the UK is something he is prepared to hand over to the EU.
UK ruling elites have experience of managed decline but the EU has more. The Iran conflict is merely an opportunity to hand over the incompetence too. Another area where the EU has bags of experience.

I don't know whether Charmless is our worst prime minister - Toni Blair takes some beating - but he is surely the most pathetic.
He can't renege on the referendum though.
Dr Richard North who I've been following for many years, appears to be a genuine expert on the EU in all its aspects. He says that few politicians have ever taken the trouble to learn the protocols and aquis of the EU, too much like hard work perhaps.
Well he says Starmad can't possibly take Britain back into the EU as it would take a minimu m of ten years to negotiate, and it i s far from certain that they would want us back anyway. We'll just have to pu t up with managing our own decline.
Anon - I agree, there is something profoundly pathetic about the Charmless soul, even Old Nick wouldn't want it.
James - he seems to think he can do enough to downgrade the point of it though.
Tammly - he seems to think there is scope to blur the difference though.
