U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer must immediately clarify the situation around Ukraine’s use Britain’s Storm Shadow missiles, demanded former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn, currently an independent MP in the House of Commons. “The Prime Minister should make a statement to Parliament, immediately, to confirm whether U.K. missiles have been fired into Russia. He must tell the British public if this means we are now at war with a nuclear power, what risk this poses to people in Britain, and why this action was taken without any approval from Parliament,” Corbyn wrote on his X account.
Citing his opposition to Russia’s special military operation into Ukraine, Corbyn went on: “As we edge closer and closer to catastrophe, we should be doing everything in our power to bring about de-escalation and peace. Instead, our political leaders have added fuel to the fire and gambled with people’s lives for political gain.
“Presidents and Prime Ministers must know that in the event of nuclear war, nobody wins.
“I’m not interested in bombs. I’m interested in peace—and I will continue to campaign for peace in Ukraine, Gaza, Yemen, Sudan, the D.R.C. and beyond,” his post concluded.
