Wonder how many people around Trump took out short positions on Friday?
Quite right. This is stopping ships from china from passing. It’s also a stupid plan that achieves nothing.
“Because you won’t open the strait, we will join you in blockading it, check mate”
Well of course not. It’s even more insane than Trumps last scheme that we also declined to be part of
Time for the fall of the pig ignorant USA..for too long they’ve lived in a self contained Hollywood narrated bubble …im looking forwards to seeing the US get a slap in the face like, did you already forget about 9/11?

I’d absolutely love to see how the Septics will enforce the detention of a foreign flag vessel in foreign waters.
Like everything Trump does, this is going to be an absolute shit show.
I give it 48 hrs before we see a Tanker being fired on for not stopping , being boarded and going kaboom.
….and somehow it’ll be Bidens fault.
Just want to say how nice it is having a reasonable PM in charge for a change.
The UK won’t be doing anything because we’re pathetic.
It’s the logic of a child. You can’t be blockadeing the straight if I am! These morons literally unsanctioned Iran so they could ship more oil and now they are blocking them and anyone else from doing that.
Is he even dumber than we thought? First he caused the blockade of the strait by starting this dumb war, then his goal became to open up the strait, now he wants to blockade it himself. WTF man!
Yes, I can see why we haven’t joined the latest of Trump’s harebrained schemes. The USA is going to do what Iran already was doing but even stricter. Its like punching yourself in the face after getting beaten up.
So diesel is now £2 a litre, and the US is STILL THE REASON WHY!!
Blockade the Blockade of the Blockade to Blockade the Blockade – Don Tzu.
If Iran and the USA both want to block the Strait of Hormuz are they low both on the same ‘side’?
Only a matter of time before we are locked down again and Chris Whitty is presenting how many barrels of oil we are short by. Throw in social distancing again because… what the hell.
If the situation wasn’t so dire it would be comical. Every single UK related headline to this boils down to Starmer reiterating that they won’t be following Trump into whatever the latest bullshit is.
Soo the straight is definitely closed now. This is like a security bolt and a Yale lock. Not sure what Trump thinks it’ll achieve though
What’s wrong with iran tolling ships?
They got stuff to rebuild and it’s a sustainable and more importantly stable business model that barely impacts shipping profits?
That’s a relief because it’s utterly fucking stupid
Hard to be involved when we lack the ability to do so
This will damage the special relationship with America.
Lets see if they fire at a Chinese or Indian ships, It becames bit more serious shit to manage.
I wonder if the US is really prepared to destroy the ships that try to force passage? If they actually do that to ships belonging to ally countries, is the US now the baddy?
Let’s see how well the U.S ships do against a constant barrage of missiles and drones. I thought this „war“ was won ? It appears it’s only just begun.
I’ll believe this after things unfold, seems like Kier is not afraid to suck Republicans off for some reason.
