IN the weeks since the general election, several high-profile events have enabled Prime Minister Keir Starmer to reassure Western imperialism’s ruling circles that there will be “no change” to British foreign policy.

For war not the poor

On July 9-11, at Nato’s 75th anniversary summit in Washington DC, Starmer voiced his enthusiastic support for continuing the war in Ukraine. Visiting Ukraine within 24 hours of his appointment as defence secretary, John Healey confirmed that Britain is supplying long-range Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine.

“That does not preclude them hitting targets in Russia,” he added, “but that must be done by the Ukrainians.”
