The fallout from America's audacious attack on Iran continues, and there are a whole host of questions for Keir Starmer.
The prime minister has been accused of being slow to react, having initially confirmed that ‘the United Kingdom played no role in these strikes', Labour since agreed to allow the Diego Garcia and RAF Fairford bases to be used for ‘defensive’ strikes on Iranian missiles sites. This came after Tehran began to hit back at Britain’s regional allies. Is Britain about to be sucked into another costly war in the Middle East? Should the PM stand up to Donald Trump? And will America's attack result in regime change, or are things only going to get worse?
James Heale speaks to Tim Shipman and Michael Stephens, Middle East expert.
Produced by Megan McElroy and Oscar Edmondson.
