British Prime Minister and Labour Party leader Keir Starmer is facing a major political crisis after allowing the United States to use British military bases, including RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire and Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, for operations in Iran. Initially, Starmer had refused access to the bases but later conceded under pressure from Donald Trump. The decision has angered much of the British public and is expected to cause a heavy defeat for the ruling Labour Party in the upcoming local and devolved elections on May 7, 2026.
The opposition Green Party, led by Zack Polanski, has strongly condemned the government’s cooperation with the US and Israel, calling Israel a rogue state committing war crimes. A recent poll shows the Greens overtaking Labour in public support, a dramatic shift from a year earlier. Observers predict that Labour could lose around 2,000 council seats, while the Greens and Liberal Democrats may benefit from widespread anti-war sentiment.
Analysts suggest that Britain’s credibility in the Middle East has eroded due to its alignment with US and Israeli military actions in Gaza and Iran, leaving the country diplomatically isolated and diminishing its influence in regional affairs.
