Summary
IS STARMER A COWARD ON IRAN? IS POLANSKI A DANGEROUS FOOL?
#KeirStarmer #ZackPolanski #IranCrisis #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #Live #Trump
Keir Starmer refuses to fully back tougher action on Iran — but is this caution… or cowardice? After a brutal by-election blow and the rise of Green Party leader Zack Polanski, is Labour now paralysed by fear of losing even more ground?
Jon Gaunt asks the questions others won't. Is Starmer putting electoral survival before strong leadership on the world stage? Is Britain going soft at a dangerous moment in the Middle East? And is Zack Polanski offering bold alternatives — or playing a reckless political game?
With tensions rising over Iran and UK politics shifting fast after the by-election shock, this is a no-holds-barred debate on leadership, foreign policy and the future of British politics.
🔥 Straight talking. No filter. 📢 Your comments, live.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, good afternoon. Welcome to the John Gorn podcast. It's an extra show to react to the war |
| 0:08.4 | with Iran and of course the by-election results in the week, which I just thought was shocking. |
| 0:14.9 | The whole thing is shocking. The whole way the political establishment is reacting to it and the commentary at the mainstream, |
| 0:23.8 | lame stream, mainstream media. |
| 0:24.8 | But here's your chance to have your say. |
| 0:27.9 | And we'll start with a, well, is it a simple question? |
| 0:30.4 | I don't know. |
| 0:30.9 | Is Stama a coward when it comes to Iran? |
| 0:36.5 | Why isn't he backing Donald Trump 100%? And then the second question, |
| 0:43.3 | is Polanski a dangerous fool? And are they both in one way or another traitors to our great country, |
| 0:54.9 | or is that going over the top, |
| 0:57.3 | quite willing to be pulled up on that? |
| 0:59.6 | But where do you stand? |
| 1:01.7 | And what do you make of the by-election result? |
| 1:05.4 | I mean, I think there's one word that unites all this, |
| 1:09.6 | Muslim. |
| 1:10.7 | That's what it is, because I think Kirstama was petrified of what might happen in that |
| 1:16.2 | by-election, and it came true, didn't it? |
| 1:20.0 | And I think Polanski cynically exploited it. |
| 1:24.6 | I mean, Polansky, when you look at him, that's not the Green Party, is it? |
| 1:29.8 | That isn't the Green Party. And did you see his deputy out on the demo for the people who support |
| 1:36.1 | the Iraqi regime? Not the Iraqi revolution that is going on at the moment. No, we're talking |
