Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer will deliver a national address regarding the ongoing Iran crisis and rising energy costs. The speech follows warnings from US President Donald Trump that the historic alliance between the two nations is at risk due to Britain declining to deploy warships to the Middle East. Starmer is expected to announce targeted financial support for households dependent on heating oil after the closure of the Strait of Hormuz caused global prices to surge.
