Enda Brady: UK correspondent on Prime Minister Starmer indicating the UK will be growing partnership with EU

The UK Prime Minister's signalling much closer ties with the European Union, forced by the war in Iran. 

Sir Keir Starmer's warning the conflict will impact the UK, and although they're preparing to whether the storm, it won't be easy. 

He says it's becoming increasingly clear their long term national interest requires a stronger partnership with Europe.

UK correspondent Enda Brady says no-one wants this war - and he wouldn't be surprised if the UK joins up with the EU by the end of the decade.
