YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe state visit of US President Donald Trump is in full swing, and Ed Balls was inside Windsor Castle for the royal banquet. He gives George Osborne and the Political Currency listeners the eyewitness account of the pomp and ceremony, and the speeches from both the King and the President.
But for Prime Minister Keir Starmer, is this visit a much-needed political lifeboat after a torrid fortnight? Ed and George assess the Prime Minister’s high-stakes strategy of embracing Trump, and debate whether the major US tech investments announced this week are a genuine coup or just a convenient distraction from troubles at home.
