    Trump Slams Starmer as "No Churchill" | Ex-US Diplomat Jim Jatras Warns “No Plan B” | Chris Parry & Fox’s Joe Concha

    Kevin O’Sullivan tackles the UK-US rupture over Iran after Donald Trump publicly attacks Keir Starmer for restricting US access to RAF bases and Diego Garcia — and questions whether the “special relationship” has taken its biggest hit in years. First, Kevin is joined by Jim Jatras, former US diplomat and ex–Republican Senate foreign policy adviser, who says Americans are focused less on Britain’s stance and more on whether Washington even has an endgame — warning this could become a war without an exit, with the West running short on defensive interceptors and Trump facing MAGA backlash ahead of the midterms. Then Rear Admiral Chris Parry, former NATO and Royal Navy commander, reacts to Trump’s “not Winston Churchill” jibe and argues UK policy has been paralysed by legal hand-wringing, leaving British interests exposed — including Cyprus and the Gulf — while allies step in to plug capability gaps. His verdict: Starmer’s wobble has handed Tehran leverage and embarrassed Britain on the world stage. Finally, Fox News correspondent Joe Concha gives the US media and Washington readout as Trump doubles down on his criticism of Starmer, predicting a long memory in the Oval Office and warning the fallout could spill into trade, NATO and future UK-US cooperation — just as the Middle East conflict escalates.

    Iran War Escalation, UK Security Fears And Trump Fallout

    As tensions rise between Israel, Iran and the United States, Ian Collins speaks to Urban Coningham, Research Fellow at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI), and Middle East journalist Emily Schrader about what this conflict means for Britain. With Donald Trump hardening his stance and Keir Starmer facing pressure over the UK’s position, the panel examines: Could Iran retaliate against UK interests? What role do British bases play in US operations? How real is the threat of Iranian-backed terror activity? What happens if this conflict widens across the Middle East? From ballistic missiles and regional escalation to NATO, UK security and the risk of sleeper cells, this is a clear-eyed breakdown of where the Iran war goes next. Keywords: Iran war, Israel Iran conflict, Donald Trump Iran, Keir Starmer foreign policy, UK terror threat, RUSI analysis, Urban Coningham, Emily Schrader, Middle East war, NATO, IRGC, British security, Talk War, Ian Collins.

    Trump Fury, Starmer Wobble And Iran War Fears + Harry Cole's Exclusive Interview with Donald Trump

    Jeremy Kyle goes live to Nashville to speak with Steve Gill, a former adviser to the Clinton and Bush administrations, as the Iran crisis escalates and Donald Trump’s patience with Keir Starmer appears to snap. Gill explains what the White House says are the three core objectives driving US action — stopping Iran’s nuclear ambition, halting ballistic missile development, and choking off Tehran’s global terror funding — while warning that “regime change is not really the intent, but it will certainly be a byproduct.” He also tackles the biggest concern for many listeners: what happens after strikes and leadership removals, and the risk of a dangerous vacuum. Back in Washington DC, The Sun’s Harry Cole reveals a world exclusive phone interview with President Trump, including a fierce assessment of the UK’s stance and the strain on the special relationship, as Talk Breakfast asks what this all means for Britain’s security, NATO unity, and the threat level at home. Search terms: Talk War, Talk Breakfast, Jeremy Kyle, Steve Gill, Donald Trump, Keir Starmer, Iran war, Israel Iran conflict, UK US special relationship, NATO, ballistic missiles, nuclear weapons, regime change, Middle East crisis.

    “The Extremists Love Starmer — Because They Can Use Him”: Yosef Haddad

    On Talk Breakfast, Jeremy Kyle speaks to Arab-Israeli journalist Yosef Haddad about the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, anti-Semitism in the West and the future of the Iranian regime. Haddad, a Christian Arab citizen of Israel, says Israelis — both Jews and Arabs — are “behind our army until we win”, arguing that Iran’s leadership has destabilised the Middle East for decades. He rejects claims that Israel is an apartheid state, insisting that during Iranian missile barrages, “it doesn’t matter if you’re a Jew or an Arab — Israel protects all its civilians.” He also accuses critics in Europe of hypocrisy, claiming there is a double standard when it comes to anti-Semitism and condemnation of Israel. Discussing UK politics and the special relationship, Haddad says Middle Eastern extremists may “love” weak Western leaders but “have zero respect” for them, contrasting that with what he calls fear and deterrence under Donald Trump. He outlines a three-stage strategy he believes could weaken the IRGC and empower the Iranian people to rise up, arguing that regime change must ultimately come from within Iran — with external military pressure creating the opportunity.

    Ex-MI6 Boss: Iran Has Sleeper Cells In The UK And Starmer “Sat On The Fence”

    Jeremy Kyle is joined by former MI6 chief Sir Richard Dearlove for a blunt assessment of the Iran crisis, the terror threat to Britain and Keir Starmer’s handling of the special relationship with Donald Trump. Dearlove says the Prime Minister “sat on the fence when he didn’t need to”, arguing the UK should have immediately backed the US and Israel as Australia and Canada did. He dismisses overreliance on international law as “a movable feast” and says national interest should have come first. On NATO, he acknowledges that an attack on RAF Akrotiri is serious, but stops short of calling for full Article 5 escalation. On domestic security, the former spy chief confirms there are groups in Britain sympathetic to Tehran and warns of the risk of Iranian-linked activity, including potential sleeper cells. While he says the security services are well equipped to disrupt organised plots, he flags the greater danger of lone actors. Dearlove, who reveals he has been personally sanctioned by the Iranian regime, describes that as a “badge of honour” and argues Iran’s ability to project power has been severely weakened — with the next chapter hinging on whether the Iranian people move against the IRGC from within.

    Iran War, International Law And ‘Aggression’: Sir Richard Dalton On Why Regime Change Is Not The Answer

    On Talk, Jeremy Kyle speaks to Sir Richard Dalton, former UK Ambassador to Iran, for a sharp and at times fiery debate over Britain’s stance in the escalating conflict with Tehran. Dalton rejects claims that the UK has been weak, arguing Britain has taken a “judicious position” by assisting defensive operations while avoiding full-scale war. He insists international law must remain the foundation of foreign policy, warning that legitimising the assassination of leaders risks putting Western politicians “in the crosshairs too.” He also questions Washington’s justification for military action, saying claims of an imminent Iranian attack have not been convincingly evidenced. Kyle pushes back, challenging whether international law can apply to a regime accused of sponsoring terrorism, repressing its own people and plotting abroad. Dalton acknowledges Iran’s record of internal repression and hostile activity, but argues that launching wars without a clear endgame risks regional chaos, economic shock and long-term instability. The exchange lays bare the divide between moral outrage and legal restraint — and what Britain’s national interest should look like in a volatile Middle East. Hosted on Acast.

    Former UK Ambassador To Iran Warns: “No Sign Of A Spontaneous Uprising” After Tehran Strikes

    Kevin O’Sullivan speaks to former British Ambassador to Iran Sir Nicholas Hopton about whether US and Israeli strikes can realistically trigger regime change in Tehran. Drawing on his time in post, Hopton says the Iranian regime is deeply unpopular but still resilient, warning there is currently “no sign” of a nationwide uprising despite isolated celebrations following the killing of senior figures. He estimates active regime support may sit between 10 and 20 per cent, but stresses that discontent does not automatically translate into revolution. He also cautions that while Iran’s military capabilities are no match for the United States and Israel in a prolonged conflict, Tehran could sustain staggered retaliation for days or even weeks. With oil markets under pressure and Gulf allies under fire, Hopton argues the key question is whether Washington has a clear endgame — and whether this confrontation ends in negotiation, escalation, or a drawn-out regional war.

    Trump Vs Starmer: Rick Gates On Iran Strikes, UK Bases And The Special Relationship

    Kevin O’Sullivan speaks to Rick Gates, former campaign chairman for President Donald Trump, about the escalating US action against Iran and Britain’s controversial response under Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Gates says there is “immense disappointment” in Washington over Starmer’s initial refusal to allow the US to use British bases such as RAF Fairford and Diego Garcia for strikes on Iranian targets. Although the UK later granted limited permission for what Downing Street described as defensive purposes, Gates argues the hesitation signals weak leadership at a pivotal geopolitical moment. He contrasts Starmer’s approach with what he calls Trump’s “decisive leadership”, claiming the President is willing to risk political fallout at home to pursue what he believes is global stability. The discussion also explores the future of the UK-US special relationship. Gates insists President Trump maintains deep respect for the British people but warns that relationships matter in global politics, particularly on trade, NATO and security cooperation. He suggests that backing away from full support could have diplomatic consequences, even if the long-term alliance endures. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
