Trump wages economic WAR on Britain amid Starmer row as Iranian regime ‘LOBBIES’ MPs: Mani Basharzad
Donald Trump has triggered an economic shock that hits the heart of Britain’s financial system.
In this interview, Iranian economic journalist Mani Basharzad explains a little-discussed geopolitical risk: how the conflict with Iran could escalate into an economic war between the United States and the United Kingdom.
At the centre of the debate is the global shipping route through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the most important oil and trade chokepoints in the world, until now controlled financially through London.
The United States has introduced cheap government-backed maritime insurance for ships passing through the region, with the potential to kill of one of the UK’s most important economic sectors.
With billions in shipping insurance handled in the City of London, such a move could weaken one of Britain’s most important financial sectors.
Donald Trump is unlikely to take pity on a Britain with which he has expressed his ‘disappointment’ this week as his row with Sir Keir Starmer escalates.
The interview also explores allegations of Iranian lobbying within British politics, including claims that a Labour Party MP echoed talking points aligned with the Iranian regime during parliamentary debate.
Mani Basharzad discusses how Iranian influence networks operate internationally, why Western politicians often misunderstand Iran’s political system, and whether the ultimate objective of the conflict may be regime change in Tehran.
The discussion also covers the future of Iran if the Islamic Republic collapses, and the possible role of opposition figures such as Reza Pahlavi.
As tensions rise across the Middle East and global shipping routes face disruption, the consequences could extend far beyond the battlefield — potentially affecting energy markets, global trade, and the future of Britain’s financial influence.
Topics covered in this interview
• Could US maritime insurance undercut Lloyd’s of London
• The global importance of the Strait of Hormuz
• How conflict with Iran could reshape the global insurance industry
• The potential economic consequences for the UK financial system
• Allegations of Iranian lobbying in British politics
• Claims that a Labour MP echoed Iranian regime narratives
• Whether the real strategy behind the conflict is regime change in Iran
• The possible future leadership of Iran and the role of Reza Pahlavi
Featuring Mani Basharzad, Iranian economic journalist and political analyst.
Watch the full discussion to understand how a war in the Middle East could trigger major geopolitical and financial consequences for Britain and the wider world.

Polly Wallaby should hop it before it gets out about how much she really knew and how long it looks as though she's known about this "relationship "since it started when the boy was ten. She should get her own children checked for STIs and interviewed by s specialist in chid abuse
