Of course they won’t help blockade. They are one of the customers whose oil is being blockaded.

That's because they'd have to do it Dunkirk-style. They ain't got a navy to speak of.

Sounds like they can add their tankers to the line headed to the Gulf of America.

Oh, and their navy is in shambles! They can't help us!

Did we even want their help?

They don't have the capability to help. They can't even control the Straight of Dover, let alone the Straight of Hormuz.
Their current Navy is barely a step above what Iran had before we sank them all. Truly an embarrassment.

They couldn’t if they wanted to anyway. Britannia rules the seas is no more.

Argentina should use this opportunity to take back the Falklands since the UK can't even field a single warship.
I'd be really curious what the UK response would be.

They would meet with Argentina and talk about it

They couldn't get a single functioning ship to the middle east even if they wanted to. This, like everything else Starmer does, is performative.
The LA national guard could conquer the UK in two weeks. Three if it's hunting season.

At this point, does anyone genuinely even care what the U.K. does?
They are no longer a serious nation.
Posted on 4/12/26 at 2:42 pm to joshnorris14
Do they even have any military ships they could send?
Posted on 4/12/26 at 2:43 pm to joshnorris14
Don’t they only have 1 operational warship?
They could not help if they wanted to…

Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman urged President Trump not to back down from this moment of consequence and to eliminate the Iranian threat once and for all. MbS is about as close to a Middle East pragmatist as you can find.
In response, a desperate British Prime Minister Keir Starmer rushed to Saudi Arabia hoping to change the position of MbS. Great Britain is almost out of fuel.
That’s a good place to start looking at the regional perspectives.

Fine by me. Likewise, we should no longer provide support for the UK.
