Everyone wants to know why Starmer didn’t deign to tell the nation that Iran had launched a long-range missile attack on Diego Garcia - British sovereign territory.
Has anyone considered the possibility that he didn’t have a clue it had happened and that he, along with the rest of us, learned about it from the Wall Street Journal?
I’m not even joking. Thanks to this pathetic Labour Government, Britain is nowhere near the top of its military game. Actually, scrap that – we don’t even have a military game any more.
On top of that, we have a Prime Minister who has alienated both the U.S. and Israel, so why would they let him know what’s going on?
And just think what might happen now if Iran tries to hit Diego Garcia again and we ask the U. S. for help?
You can probably guess what Trump’s reaction would be – a two-word sentence that ends with the word “Off”.
But even when this Government did find out about the attack, its immediate response was to hide it from the British people.
And there are two reasons Starmer and Co would have done that. First, because they really didn’t have a clue what to do, and so were buying time to formulate some kind of response.
And Second, because they think we don’t matter. This Government has always treated the British people with disdain and disrespect – like we’re an irrelevance. So why would they tell us about something as important as an attack on British territory?
The attack on Diego Garcia was launched at 2 a.m. last Friday, but disgracefully it took the M.o.D until 10.30 am on Saturday to finally admit that it had happened.
And when asked why it had taken so long, the predictable response was that they couldn’t give specific details about attacks because it would compromise our future safety.
Which is bullshit for: “We don’t have a response, so we’re going to hide behind this old chestnut. “

Starmer’s primary job as Prime Minister is to protect the security of this country and anything that threatens that - the British people need to know about pronto!
A Government that tries to cover up this kind of danger doesn’t have our best interests at heart - only its own.
But what this cover-up screams loud and clear is that it’s in this Government’s DNA to lie. For weeks, we’ve been told that Iran didn’t have the capability to hit Britain - now it turns out it very well might have. Yet Starmer had ministers out all weekend saying it just wasn’t possible.
Even today, he’s still parroting the line – a line he’s also told all of his ministers to trot out - that: “There is no assessment to substantiate that suggestion.”
But who do you believe - Israel and Mossad, with its world-renowned intelligence network, who say Iran absolutely does have the missiles to hit us or the deadbeat Starmer, who doesn’t know which way is up.
Until recently, it was thought Iran’s missiles only had a range of 1,240 miles. Now we discover it’s up to 2.400 which puts both Diego Garcia and London within its range.
Luckily, one of the Diego -bound missiles fell short of its target, and the other was intercepted by the Americans.
But what the Hell are we going to do if it decides to launch a direct hit on the UK, because even though Starmer insists this country can protect itself, I don’t believe him.
Our once great military might is now in the toilet. We have one operational warship, which is now in Cyprus and unlike Israel, we don’t have an Iron Dome to fend off incoming missiles. So, we’re sitting ducks.
“We have systems and defences in place that keep the United Kingdom safe,” says Starmer. Nope, not buying it.
And neither does Mark Almond, director of the Crisis Research Institute in Oxford, who says: “The plain truth is there is next to nothing this country can do to prevent a multi-stage Iranian rocket from hitting us. We would depend on American missile systems stationed around Europe.”
But the problem with that is that Starmer has insulted, alienated and offended the one man who could authorise those systems to protect us.
So, think about it - why wouldn’t Iran hit us? Unlike the U.S and Israel, we can’t hit back. And even if we could, wet wipes like Miliband and Cooper would talk Starmer out of it. Just like they talked him out of letting Trump use our air bases.
But make no mistake, Iran has us in its sights. Just last week, two Iranian spies were arrested trying to enter the Faslane nuclear submarine base on the River Clyde. What does Starmer think they were doing there - tickling trout?
Whether Starmer admits it or not, the threat of Iran is real, it's terrifying, and it's upon us, and this is no time for him and his cabinet of muppets to be playing silly beggars.
Yet even now they’re still telling us all not to worry because Iran is no real threat – and again they’re lying.
In times of war, good leaders tell their people the truth. They don’t treat them like vegetables by keeping them in the dark.
Starmer has done this whole Iran thing wrong from the start. All he had to do at the beginning was give Trump the use of the two bases he asked for. But he didn’t. Now the one man who could protect us is so angry with us - he might not.
So now, if a bomb does come our way, we’re up the creek without a paddle. And that's thanks to Starmer!
