Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he is "fed up" with the actions of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin causing energy bills to rise in other countries. Speaking on ITV News' Talking Politics podcast, Starmer blasted the Russian and U.S. presidents for starting wars in Ukraine and Iran, respectively, which have resulted in U.K. families facing increased financial hardship. Energy prices in the U.K. rose rapidly in the wake of Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Four years later, Trump started his deeply unpopular conflict in the Middle East, triggering a global gas and oil crisis with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
