BRITAIN hosted a meeting of military chiefs in a bid to block a Ukraine peace deal today after Sir Keir Starmer visited a nuclear weapons submarine to boost his bellicose posturing.

The Prime Minister attended the war meeting after returning from Barrow, where he inspected HMS Vanguard, one of Britain’s Trident-armed vessels.

The Ukraine meeting involved 20 states in Sir Keir’s “coalition of the willing” discussing sending a “peace-keeping” force to Ukraine, although Russia has made it clear that the presence of Western troops on its borders is a non-starter in peace negotiations.
