US diplomat says UK would have lost WW2 with Starmer as leader

The article discusses comments made by former U.S. diplomat Mike Huckabee regarding the leadership of Sir Keir Starmer, the current leader of the UK's Labour Party. Huckabee suggested that the UK would have lost World War II if Starmer had been in charge during that time. The comments were made in response to Starmer's recent condemnation of Israel's plan to take over Gaza City. Huckabee's remarks imply that Starmer's leadership would have been insufficient to guide the UK through the challenges of World War II. The article does not provide any further details or context regarding Huckabee's comments or the reasoning behind his assessment of Starmer's hypothetical leadership during the war. It simply reports on the occurrence of the statement without delving into the merits or implications of the claim.
