Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 September 2026

Debate

Saudi East-West Oil Pipeline

Contribution

I thank my noble friend for his kind words—and it is lovely to be able to call him my noble friend. He refers to the action against Iran by the US and Israel combined. As he will know, our former Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer made an excellent judgment call in those early days, under a great deal of pressure from both outside groups and the Opposition. As a Member of this House and a former military officer, I commend the way he handled it.
