   The timing of things:

   Starmer made the announcement that the USA could use British military bases at 11:23 p.m., March 1, 2026

   The drone attack on RAF Akrotiri occurred at approximately 12:03 a.m. March 2, 2026

   Draw your conclusions.

     @Infoseepage all of that is true notwithstanding Starmer's message was prerecorded xx

     BUT above all things making the statement was unwise, if only for being another U-turn

     @Infoseepage there is a Commons statement this afternoon. He has to make an appearance to explain himself as he denied journalists questions yesterday.

     It would be a most terrible thing, should he abrogate his responsibilities.

     BUT

     I would not be surprised

     @Infoseepage Yes, that's the rub.
