Traditionally, British politicians stuck together when it came to dangerous moments abroad. In 2026? Not so much.

It used to be the case that governments with whopping majorities could more or less do what they liked. That's not true now. Sir Keir Starmer's party is still restless, and underneath the overwhelming scale of the crisis in the Middle East, politics continues to fray.

"There is a lot of anxiety around," one minister tells me, adding that it's not clear the public has a whole heap of faith in our politicians' ability to prioritise and protect the public from what could be "the greatest global energy security threat in history" according to the head of the International Energy Agency.

Nor is it certain that the government has the public's support to increase the UK's involvement in the conflict, after last night's decision to let the US use British bases to launch strikes on Iranian sites targeting the vital waterway, the Strait of Hormuz.

In a few weeks, millions of voters have a chance to show their confidence in politicians, or lack thereof, at the ballot box during local elections. And polls suggest the outcome won't be neat or ordered but, in reality, a bit of a mess.

While the prime minister is trying to deal with a war that he didn't start, and doesn't have the power to end, some of his own MPs are making his life harder - not least his former deputy Angela Rayner, who popped back into public life in a very obvious way in the past couple of weeks.

She's one of the Labour MPs complaining about the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood's plans. The group is thinking about trying to force a vote in the Commons unless Mahmood ditches some of her ideas, most controversially perhaps the plan to expect most migrants to wait 10, not five, years before they could be given the right to live in the UK for good.

Sources close to the home secretary are convinced that a stricter approach to immigration is what the public wants. Those sources are resolute in the face of discomfort among Labour MPs. "Once again we have people out of step with the country," they say, claiming that more voters have switched to Reform because of immigration policy being too weak than have gone over to the Greens because it's too harsh.

After the debacle over ditching welfare reforms that ran into a brick wall of resistance in the Commons, the home secretary is planning to make the changes she wants over a longer period of time, in a variety of ways - rather than create one big moment in Parliament where critics could organise a big bust-up.

But ministers are conscious of risk, and the impression it gives to voters. One warned colleagues picking a fight on the changes while the conflict in Iran rages: "Anyone thinking about it should take a deep breath and focus on the reward we could get with unanimity." Another frustrated source said it was "classic fighting amongst ourselves when we should be focusing on the world and trying to govern".
