Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the opposition and head of the Conservative Party, has called on the United Kingdom to join the United States in taking aggressive action against Iran.

Following Iranian assaults on UK bases in the Middle East, Badenoch initiated the call.

The leader of the Conservatives stated on the Today programme of BBC Radio 4, “We need to do everything we can to stop these attacks from happening.

“I think we should listen to what our allies in the region are saying. Even if we’re not talking about Iran, Cyprus feels like we haven’t been helpful. It’s surprising that Bahrain and Kuwait, which are part of the UAE, are openly criticizing us.

“They think that we’re abandoning them. If your main idea is that we will only take action when we are attacked instead of handling possible dangers as they come, then we will end up in a lot of trouble.”

In response to concerns about her backing of British participation in the bombing of Iran, Badenoch replied, “Being realistic doesn’t mean being overly eager. I don’t want a wider war. Sometimes the best way to calm a situation down is to try to finish it quickly, instead of letting it go on and on because you don’t want to get involved.”
