3 Iranian Boats have Surrounded a British Tanker in the Strait of Hormuz,
 
Revenge for holding their Oil Tanker
in Gibraltar.



[3 boats thought to be Iranian tried to stop a British oil tanker in the Strait of Hormuz, according to US officials.
The boats withdrew after a warning from a British warship operating in the area.
The incident comes as a Royal Navy warship was said to be offering extra protection to a second tanker in the Gulf following a threat from Iran to seize a British vessel.
HMS Montrose, a Type 23 frigate, has been travelling with a tanker, British Heritage, according to a ship tracking website and a defence source.
Tensions have been rising since Royal Marines helped seize an Iranian-flagged tanker in Gibraltar which was allegedly carrying oil to Syria, in breach of European Union sanctions.]

Send the Royal Navy in. I have a feeling they won't want to dance then.

We get so little of our oil from the Middle East I'd like to see us remove ourselves totally.

We'll be at war with Iran soon enough, our overlord Trump will demand it soon enough.
