British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has said the war on Iran might lead to people in the UK having to change what they buy in supermarkets and where they go on holiday.
Asked if British people's summer holidays were in jeopardy, Starmer told Sky News: “We'll see how long the conflict goes on.
“I can see that, if there's more impact, people might change their habits… where they go on holiday this year, what they're buying in the supermarket, that sort of thing.”
Starmer said his message to the British public was not to panic, when asked about potential shortages of fuel and food.
