Sky News reports:

Russia has vowed to respond after the Royal Navy was given permission to board sanctioned tankers sailing through British waters.

Presumably the tankers need to sail in international waters to avoid boarding?

And what about the tankers the USA has 'allowed' to break their sanctions while the oil price surges as a result of their illegal war on Iran?

What if Russian naval vessels escort these tankers?

Is the 17 ship Royal Navy surface fleet going to start another Battle of Jutland by taking on the Russian navy?

Then if a ship gets sunk, what happens next? WW3?

Does anyone in the Starmer government have a brain?
