Keir Starmer is being pressed to 'do a Trump' and order the historic release of secret UK UFO files, after a leading British researcher claimed in London this week that newly declassified US military records appear to show unexplained craft operating in conflict zones.
The intervention comes from documentary film‑maker and UFO investigator Mark Christopher Lee, who argues thatPresident Donald Trump's latest disclosure drivein Washington has shifted the ground on both sides of the Atlantic.
Trump has authorised the publication ofPentagon material on unidentified anomalous phenomena, and Lee now wants the Prime Minister to match that by opening Britain's own X‑Files, held by the Ministry of Defence, the RAF and the intelligence agencies.
Lee's call is rooted in a batch of US records released online, which he says include at least one piece of footage that 'may be proof that we are not alone.'
The clip, dating from 2021, purportedly shows a mystery craft clashing with an MQ‑9 Reaper drone near the Jordan–Syria border.
Writing on X, Lee reacted with undisguised excitement. 'HOLY C***. This one is WILD. MQ-9 Reaper drone gets a weapons-quality lock on the object near the Jordan-Syria border. Then it does instantaneous acceleration + abrupt direction change - one of the classic "five observables" that still blows minds.'

He added: 'No visible propulsion. No conventional explanation. This is official military sensor footage just dropped today.'
As of this writing, there has been no confirmation from US authorities that the object is extraterrestrial technology, and officials have not publicly endorsed Lee's more sweeping conclusions.
Trump has framed his approach in typically theatrical style. Announcing the US publication drive on Truth Social, he told Americans that with the files now online 'the people can decide for themselves, "WHAT THE H*** IS GOING ON?" Have Fun and Enjoy!'
