"Current and former U.S. officials say they see little sign, at least so far, of a mass popular uprising in Iran or of significant fissures within the government or security forces that will result in a new regime."

"There is an 11% chance that the Iranian government will lose power before 2027."

"There is an 8.9% chance that the Iranian regime will collapse and Reza Pahlavi will become head of state before January 1, 2027."

"There is an 19% chance that the Iranian regime will fall before 2027."

"Regime change is possible but unlikely."

"In any case, the Islamic Republic faces a significant challenge, and its long-term survival is not assured."

"Regime collapse or irreversible degradation is more likely than regime survival (65% likelihood)."

“The regime cannot continue that long.”

"If Trump sees it through, and I think he will, I think they're [going to] fall pretty soon, in two, three, four weeks."

"I think the regime will collapse before Iranian New Year (Nowruz), which is March 20th."

Will the Islamic Republic of Iran Experience Regime Collapse by 2027?

The U.K. government designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization on Monday under the National Security (State Threats) Act, following the fast-tracking of the legislation as pledged by Prime Minister Keir Starmer in April.

The U.K. government designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization on Monday under the National Security (State Threats) Act, following the fast-tracking of the legislation as pledged by Prime Minister Keir Starmer in April.

Supporting or assisting any of the designated groups is now a criminal offense in the U.K., carrying a maximum sentence of 14 years in prison, rising to life imprisonment for spying, sabotage or foreign interference on behalf of banned groups.

Security Minister Angela Eagle told Parliament that members of the IRGC's Quds Force "almost certainly directed IMCR attacks across Europe" and that the IRGC's role included intelligence activity, the use of proxy actors and projecting influence to advance Iranian state objectives.

The government also designated the Islamic Movement of Companions of the Right (IMCR), an Iran-linked group that has publicly claimed seven attacks on U.K. locations tied to Jewish and Israeli communities, including <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.verity.news/story/2026/two-arrested-over-london-jewish-ambulance-arson-attack">an arson attack on four Hatzola ambulances</a> in Golders Green on March 23.

The volunteer corps of Russia's GRU military intelligence agency was also designated under the new legislation. Eagle said the corps was "controlled, co-ordinated and overseen" by Russian military spy chiefs and included former members of the Wagner mercenary group.

Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper summoned Iranian Ambassador Seyed Ali Mousavi to inform him of the ban. The three designations must be approved by Parliament before taking effect and would be the first groups proscribed under the new powers.

This is a reckless move driven by U.S. and Israeli pressure. The IRGC has fought Daesh and other terrorist groups that Western powers helped create, making this designation a dangerous inversion of reality. British policymakers will bear direct responsibility for the consequences of this hostile and legally baseless provocation.

This move is long overdue and grounded in undeniable reality. The IRGC has spent decades sponsoring terrorism, destabilizing the Middle East and funding extremist proxies that threaten civilian populations worldwide. Holding this regime accountable through formal designation is the kind of decisive action that responsible governments must take.
