00:00The best thing we can do is to de-escalate this conflict, because that is the clearest and most effective
00:06way in which we can get the strait reopened.
00:10And that's what the Prime Minister has been working on throughout this conflict.
00:13I've always supported the Prime Minister's leadership on these issues, yes.
00:18He was right not to join the initial attack, because the lesson of the Iraq war is that we should
00:24not go into conflicts without a clear plan.
00:28But at the same time, it's absolutely right that when there are indiscriminate attacks on our allies by Iran, threatening
00:35British citizens, that our bases are used for defensive action.
