The threat Russia poses to the United Kingdom has been thrown back into the spotlight this week, after Royal Marine commandos seized a Russian shadow vessel as it passed through the English Channel on Sunday morning - a first for the UK since the invasion of Ukraine began.
On Monday, a Ukrainian and a Romanian were found guilty of plotting arson attacks that targeted a car formerly owned by Keir Starmer, and his former family home, with investigations released after the verdict showing involvement from the Russian state.
So how concerned should we be about Russia?
On this episode of Talk War, Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by Lord Dannatt, former Head of the British Army. They discuss the resignation of John Healey, the appointment of Dan Jarvis as Defence Secretary, why we will all feel the cost if Putin succeeds, our past issues with failing to deter invasion, and why we need to take action now - plus, what he makes of Trump's deal with Iran.

Peace is coming for the Middle East. After 15 weeks of conflict that has thrown global shipping and oil prices into chaos, Pakistan announced today that the USA and Iran have agreed to a deal to end the war. The agreement will be signed on Friday, and US President Donald Trump has teased that the deal will see Iran give up nuclear weapons, and will allow for the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Oil prices have dropped as a result, and stock markets in Europe and on Wall Street have skyrocketed. So what happens next?
On this episode of Talk War, Julia Hartley-Brewer is joined by author Jake Wallis Simons, to discuss how this deal risks being a major defeat for Trump, and how Iran is trying to drive a wedge between Israel and USA.
And Ian Collins is joined by Middle East expert Patrick Cockburn, to discuss how difficult things are for Israel after this deal, and how many in the Middle East don't want Iran as an enemy anymore after this conflict.

In a major blow for Keir Starmer's defence funding plans, Secretary of State for Defence John Healey and Armed Forces Minister Al Carns resigned yesterday in protest over Treasury's refusal to sign off the requested budget to fully fund the country's defence. It has put renewed pressure on the Prime Minister, who insisted today that the country's defence remains his top priority.
To discuss, Ian Collins is joined by Bob Seely, former Conservative MP and military expert, who discusses how Labour’s priorities are not those of much of Britain, and how Starmer hasn’t got the power to overrule Rachel Reeves.
And Kevin O'Sullivan is joined by former Head of MI6, Sir Richard Dearlove, to discuss how the Government has chosen welfare over safety of the nation, what sort of defence budget we should be aiming, the growing threat to our security, and the desperate state of our defences.

The Government could be about to drop the long awaited defence spending plan, showing how Labour plans to improve a crisis that is leaving Britain at risk. However, rumours are abound that the plan could drop on Friday when Parliament isn't sitting, meaning the Government would not face questions on the plan. Speaker Lindsay Hoyle has weighed in, cautioning the Government against a Friday drop.
And how will we pay for such a plan? Well, Chancellor Rachel Reeves has opened the door to more tax rises in order to fund the spending, saying that the money "has to come from somewhere".
To discuss the news, Ian Collins is joined on this episode of Talk War by Mark Francois, Shadow Defence Minister, who says that this is causing a Parliamentary row, and dropping the plan on Friday prevents Opposition from holding the Government to account. And he calls for the money to come from a cut to welfare spending.
And Anne Strickland, researcher at The Taxpayers' Alliance, echoes those calls, telling Ian that the country's defence capabilities are not up to scratch, but the answer isn't higher taxes - and our welfare bill at the end of this decade is going to be more than £400bn.

The world is still reeling from the sudden return of strikes between Israel and Iran over the weekend - and is waiting to see if alleged peace talks will pan out, or if they will fail once again. But the strikes have shown President Donald Trump taking a firmer stance with Israel, with the President reportedly pushing for Israel to pause hostilities.
So what happens now that both sides have scaled back the fighting?
To discuss, Ian Collins was joined by Emily Schrader, journalist and Middle East Expert, who discusses Iran's threat to continue fighting if Israel continues to fire on Lebanon, who the victims are in this scenario, and what weight Trump's comments have had.
And Kevin O'Sullivan is joined by Jim Jatras, former U.S. Diplomat, Foreign Policy Adviser for the Republican Leadership In The U.S. Senate, on the 'pickle' that Trump has found himself in.

The Gulf Crisis took another turn this weekend. As Israel continued to fire rockets towards southern Lebanon, aiming at Hezbollah targets despite an ongoing ceasefire, prompting Iran to strike at Israel for the first time since Israel. The two countries exchanged rockets across the weekend, prompting US President Donald Trump to tell the two countries to "stop shooting". The countries are reportedly negotiating a ceasefire, according to Trump, and Iran has said it is ending operations in Israel - but will escalate if the fighting continues in Lebanon.
To discuss the latest developments, Jeremy Kyle is joined by Sean Bell, former fight pilot turned military analyst, to take stock of the wider conflict and is peace can actually be achieved.
And Erol Morkoc, spokesman for Republicans Overseas UK, talks to Julia Hartley-Brewer about how Trump truly feels about the conflict.
Former Israeli Government Spokesman Eylon Levy tells Julia that it’s crucial Israel can’t treat Lebanon as its backyard, and that while Israel and the US have convergent interests, they are two sovereign countries with their own concerns.
And after news of the ceasefire Andrew Fox, Senior Associate Fellow at the Henry Jackson Society & Former Major in the Parachute Regiment, tells Julia how Iran's wants are dragging out the negotiations.

Tensions in the Middle East surge after the US intercepts and seizes an Iranian cargo vessel, triggering fresh retaliation threats from Tehran and plunging the Strait of Hormuz back into chaos. With the vital shipping route flipping between open and closed, global markets and security hang in the balance as Washington and Tehran edge closer to direct confrontation.
Featuring military analyst Sean Bell, journalist David Patrikarakos and US commentator Adam Coleman, the episode breaks down the escalating tit-for-tat, the fragility of multiple ceasefires, and why Iran may still hold the upper hand despite America’s military dominance. From nuclear negotiations to economic choke points, the discussion exposes the real leverage behind this conflict.
As brinkmanship intensifies ahead of looming peace talks, the question is whether diplomacy can hold — or if this spirals into something far more dangerous. Talk War delivers the clearest picture yet of a conflict driven as much by strategy and messaging as it is by firepower.

Jeremy Kyle leads a high-stakes Talk War discussion on Donald Trump’s Iran ceasefire, Keir Starmer’s handling of the crisis and Britain’s role in the Middle East, joined by former MI6 chief Sir Richard Dearlove, Professor Gwythian Prins, Reform UK MP Sarah Pochin and former Deputy Speaker Nigel Evans. This episode targets the biggest search terms in the story: Iran ceasefire, Trump, Starmer, Strait of Hormuz, RAF operations and IRGC.
The panel asks whether Trump’s threats forced Iran to back down, whether the ceasefire will actually hold and what the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz means for oil prices, global markets and Western security. Jeremy’s guests also clash over claims that UK personnel intercepted more than 110 drone attacks, the RAF flew 1,600 hours of defensive operations and Britain is more deeply involved in the conflict than ministers admit.
Listeners will also hear fierce criticism of Keir Starmer’s Gulf trip, warnings about Britain’s weakened military capability, fresh calls to ban the IRGC and a blunt debate over whether Iran now poses a greater terrorist threat to the UK. For anyone searching for analysis on Trump and Iran, Starmer’s Middle East response, UK defence policy and the latest Strait of Hormuz fallout, this is a hard-hitting episode.
