Episode description

Donald Trump's win puts Keir Starmer and Labour in an awkward position.


The PM leads a party that has described Donald Trump as racist, misogynistic and a fascist. He is now the most powerful man the world. So is it over for the special relationship?


Kamal Ahmed and Tim Stanley discuss what UK-US relations might look like in Donald Trump's second term in office and whether Starmer will be able to work successfully with the new President.


They also discuss where the Democrats and Kamala Harris went wrong, and what lessons the left need to learn from Trump's victory.
