Michelle Dewberry has accused a former Labour MP of “Trump derangement syndrome” after he accused the President of being “erratic” in a fiery row. Labour has fallen under fire for refusing to explicitly support Donald Trump’s war against Iran – with the Republican declaring Sir Keir Starmer to be “no Churchill” earlier today.While Sir Keir U-turned to allow the US to use UK military bases, including Diego Garcia, Mr Trump has remained dismayed at what he has viewed as a delayed decision.Discussing the ongoing turmoil across the Middle East and whether the UK should boost its involvement, ex-Harlow MP Bill Rammell expressed concern over the “instability spreading across the region with no sense of when it might end”.

He went on to direct his criticism at the President, adding: “That’s the real problem that we’re confronting. You know, what is the plan? “What’s the strategy? Where does it lead to? And I don’t think Trump in any way, shape or form has thought that through.”However, his view went down poorly with the GB News star, who offered up a blunt response to her guest.”With all due respect to you, I just think that’s a stupid thing to say,” Michelle argued. “Why would Donald Trump take this action without vaguely having even thought it through?”You can disagree with his thought process. You can think that he’s completely wrong. This notion is just a bit like Trump Derangement Syndrome.”It doesn’t matter what Donald Trump does. There are certain people that just instantly will criticise him. Nobody believed that he did that without even vaguely thinking it through.”Mr Rammell responded: “Look, I’m basing my judgement from what I’ve seen from Trump in office after so many months.”He’s erratic, he’s impulsive. He’s emotional. He changes his view constantly. And that is not a recipe for secure international relations.”DONALD TRUMP – READ THE LATEST:’It’s over!’ Nigel Farage slams ’embarrassing’ Labour after Donald Trump issues damning dig at PMLabour MP hits back at Donald Trump after accusing Keir Starmer of being ‘no Winston Churchill’Donald Trump lashes out at Keir Starmer over Iran war – ‘This isn’t Churchill we’re dealing with!’But Michelle argued the unpredictability could be considered a strength to international diplomacy and international relations. Meanwhile, Sir Keir has been widely criticised for his Government’s approach to the unfolding crisis in Iran and across the Middle East. After the US and Israel first launched strikes on Tehran, the Prime Minister refused to explicitly show his support for the decision. Once Iran began retaliating by shooting off rockets across the region, Sir Keir confirmed British planes were “in the sky” as part of defensive operations to protect British nationals and the UK’s allies.However, his stance has conflicted with that of other US and UK allies, including Canada and Australia – both of whom supported Mr Trump’s bid to squash Iran’s nuclear aspirations.Meanwhile, Spain is one European nation which has turned against Mr Trump for the initial strikes, with Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez condemning the move.The Spanish premier declared the move to be “unjustified” and “dangerous military intervention”, expressing concern that the action breached international law.His concern echoed that of the British Prime Minister, who told MPs in the Commons on Monday: “We all remember the mistakes of Iraq and we have learned those lessons. Any UK actions must always have a lawful basis and a viable, thought-through plan.”
