As Trump shows lack of direction on Iran, even Badenoch distances herself

AI Summary
Kemi Badenoch, a Conservative leader, is facing scrutiny over her stance on US-Israeli attacks on Iran. Initially, she expressed support for the US and Israel, suggesting the UK should have allowed the US to use its airbases. However, as the US campaign lacked a clear objective and public opposition grew, Badenoch clarified that she never advocated for UK involvement in the strikes. She now emphasizes the UK's role in defending against missile sites targeting British interests. Badenoch has also publicly criticized Donald Trump's attacks on Keir Starmer, calling them "childish." Starmer has repeatedly challenged Badenoch's position, suggesting she has shifted her stance due to public opinion.
