Some needs to remind that rt honorable twat, that in 1974, the UK failed in its duty as a 'guarantor Power'. Suddenly the smell of methane has woken the MFs up.

the UK was shafted by the Yanks in 1974, too when for thir own reasons the US decided to sabotage Britain's efforts to support Big Mak and later stop a Turkish invasion, where Britain was looking at Naval intervention but needed American Navy support which they did not get.

The Americans did not trust the Brit Prime Minister, Wilson, who was thought by some to be a Soviet Agent.

War between Greece and Turkey would have been bad enough for Nato but a dispute betwenn the Usa / Britain on one side and Turkey on the other which would have followed would have been worse and the US put its own interests first which meant at the minimum non-oppostion to the Invasion, so they got to keep their land bases in Turkey.

As you will see GB was even looking at giving up the SBA which again was contrary to USA interests...
