Title: The world walks away from america
Post by Sprintcyclist on Apr 15th, 2026 at 3:24am

And we won't be walking back for a long time either.



Keir Starmer went on national television and said what no British leader has said about an American president in modern memory.
"I'm fed up with the fact that families across the country see their bills go up and down on energy, businesses' bills go up and down on energy, because of the actions of Putin or Trump across the world."
He put Trump's name next to Putin's. On purpose. On camera.
When asked about Trump's threat to destroy Iranian civilization, Starmer didn't hedge: "Let me be really clear about this. They are not words I would use, ever use, because I come at this with our British values and principles."
Then came the blockade. When Trump announced the US would blockade the Strait of Hormuz, Starmer flatly refused to participate.
"We're not supporting the blockade," he said. "This is not our war and we're not going to get dragged into it."
Trump has called Starmer "not Winston Churchill" and compared him to Neville Chamberlain for not joining his war. He publicly mocked Starmer at a White House Easter event for saying he needed to "ask" his team before sending British ships to the Middle East.
Starmer responded by refusing to send them at all.
Now look at the full picture. Spain closed its airspace to US military aircraft and refused access to its bases. Sanchez said Spain "will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket."
France's Macron is building a coalition of medium powers without the US. Italy's Meloni, Trump's closest European ally, publicly broke with him.
Starmer told reporters the UK would form a "closer partnership" with Europe as its relationship with the US becomes increasingly strained. And Hungary's Orban, Trump's favorite strongman, just lost in a historic landslide.
Britain. France. Spain. Italy. Hungary. Every ally Trump had in Europe is either gone, defiant, or voted out of office. The Western alliance that took 77 years to build is realigning without the United States.
