Guardian: Reports " Hunt 'extremely concerned' as Iran seizes two British-linked oil tankers..No UK citizens thought to be on either vessel taken by Iranian forces in strait of Hormuz on Friday "
Lets Get Real:
One can hear the FCO Mandarins NOW, saying the UK can do nothing, that the Foreign Secretary should visit Iran and the tanker seized in Gibraltar should be LET GO. The FCO is like the BBC, it forgets it is there to protect UK interests not some other side. The UK can not be BLACKMAILED, if we give in to Iran, then they will try something else, this time against the Americans, that might be a VERY BAD IDEA. The UK for once should stand firm, the COBRA meeting should think what Lady Thatcher would do in such a case. One thing they can do is send more Royal Navy Ships to the region, with the authority to take military action if any UK ships, Royal Navy or tankers come under threat from Iran. When will the UK stop appeasing Iran!!
