Shared interests rather than vassalage

Huge congrats to the British prime minister, Keir Starmer, who blocked the US military from using critical strategic assets.  

For the first time in modern history a British prime minister denied the US permission to launch offensive strikes from Royal Air Force Fairford in Gloucestershire and sovereign base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. the mistake in Iran

Starmer mentioned the catastrophic mistake in Iraq and the 2003 US misadventure drive by faulty intelligence regarding weapons of mass destruction.  He underlined that the UK would not participate in regime change in Iran from the sky without a clear lawful mandate.  

I took the above photo in 2019 when I visited the British Parliament.  

In the meanwhile, I think it is not a coincidence the fact that many goods imported from the US have been stalled on supermarket shelves. People don't buy them anymore. And once again we can see how Trump destroys the economy of his country. 


Greetings from Italy.
