PM accuses Badenoch of 'mother of all U-turns' on Iran war

Starmer condemned Badenoch’s reversal on UK involvement in Iran war as the ‘mother of all U-turns’ amid rising fuel costs and defence concerns.

  • On March 11, 2026, Prime Minister Keir Starmer accused Kemi Badenoch of a 'mother of all U-turns' over her shift on UK involvement in Iran during PMQs.
  • Last week, Badenoch told the BBC 'I never said we should join, I haven’t said we should have gone in with the United States,' denying she backed intervention.
  • During PMQs, Starmer highlighted Badenoch's 'just hanging about' remark about RAF jets and her claim that HMS Dragon would have 'left a week ago'; BBC's Charlie Stayt fact-checked these armed forces comments.
