US President Donald Trump has taken aim at Australia and fellow allies for refusing his request to join the war against Iran.
Trump called on the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and Japan and South Korea on Sunday to help remove Iran’s stranglehold over the Strait of Hormuz, a shipping route vital for the world’s oil supply.

MY ANALYSIS: Labour leadership truce holds for now but clock is ticking for Keir Starmer 👇
‘While the truce holds in the short-term, the mood among ministers and MPs across the party after their byelection trouncing is dark.
As one MP put it: “I think it hastens everything. I thought we could maybe keep going for another year after May but definitely not now. I don’t think anything can save him now.”’
