Summary

So much to pick on from little Keir's trip to see big Donald. Broadly speaking a success, but is it more because of what didn't go wrong than what went right?

0:27.1

and i say little kear because on the face of it i don't know if you saw the very first moment

0:31.0

where he arrived at the white house and the sheer difference in size of the two men. I think Kear's sort of got off lightly

0:38.6

for how short he is. You know, in an age where Rishi Sunak had a whole Huffington post piece

1:34.2

Because I was sort of going,
