It's a curious situation to me. The U.S. Govt whilst militarily supporting Saudi against the Iranian backed Houti must be quietly satisfied at the upturn in oil price. Their own industry was being strangled by the Saudis who weren't restricting oil supply and playing the long game to bankrupt American Energy companies who had borrowed a lot of money to get into production.
To the UK public at large, this is a non event. However, they will start to take notice if the Houtis win and the Gulf of Aden gets affected.
