Episode description
Sky News' deputy political editor Sam Coates and Politico's Tim Ross have their guide to the day ahead in British politics.
Keir Starmer is in Washington today to meet Donald Trump to discuss Ukraine and Europe’s long-term security. Tim and Sam assess what Keir’s approach might be and what he might actually be able to do. Will he - can he - take Macron’s recent approach of flattery and charm, or will he take a firmer line?
Also, ahead of European leaders meeting at Lancaster House on Sunday, Sam and Tim discuss Britain’s increased importance on the European stage as America takes a step back.
Plus, Sam and Tim outline what to expect from the rest of the week.
