That makes the UK a legitimate target for Iran.
Congratulations.

Given Iran fired on British territory first, legitimacy doesn’t seem to be a factor.

Iran launched drones at the UK bases on Cyprus and Riyadh long before any announcement that the UK would let the US use them.
I’m definitely opposed to the war with Iran but let’s put facts first; Iran through their proxies have been indiscriminately firing on ships in the gulf for nearly a decade and when the US and Israel attacked them they launched missiles and drones at pretty much every cluster of buildings near to the Gulf with no concern for what they might hit or any apparent strategy.

Airstrip One, for instance, had not been so called in those days: it had been called England, or Britain, though London, he felt fairly certain, had always been called London.[9]

Some Oil billionaire or 2 has paid him to help move his oil through.
Likely after paying bitcoin to trumps mushroom stains. Failed to convince the rest of the world to help.

Yes there’s currently live updates on BBC and a couple of articles. Why would you ask?

Maybe Starmer has responded “Since US doesn’t need us, and our last gesture was way too late”, the US can no long use UK air bases?
