Very, very difficult for Labour and I think it's going to cause real friction and I think,
00:04
especially with the election of Nigel Farage, Donald Trump doesn't care about formalities.
00:09
He doesn't do the playbook that Whitehall in London will want. He won't go through number
00:16
ten. If Farage is on the opposition benches, he'll become his link with the UK and that's
00:21
a huge problem for Keir Starmer and for David Lammy. I was surprised, I like David Lammy,
00:26
he's a good, I think he's got lots of attributes, but I was surprised, given where the American
00:30
elections are potentially heading, that Keir Starmer, there'd been some question marks
00:35
around it, I was surprised he decided to promote David Lammy to that position, given what he'd
00:39
said previously. Nonetheless, he's in the post and he's going to have to work with Mr
00:44
Trump, or his administration rather, if he becomes, if Mr Trump wins that election. But
00:49
I would have thought that Keir Starmer might have been more cautious.
