Will the Tories fall for Keir Starmers EU trap?

from Political Currency

Keir Starmer has been in Brussels this week, meeting with European Union leaders with the view to resetting the relationship with the bloc. George Osborne and Ed Balls ask, is it making good on a campaign promise? Is it to shore up UK-EU relations as President Donald Trump runs wild with tariffs? Or, is it a perfect opportunity to lay the perfect trap for the Conservatives … Trump’s decision to slap tariffs on major US trading partners sent shock waves across the globe and sent the stockmarket into a tail spin. But he managed to outdo himself with his plans for Gaza, telling the world the US was taking it over. Ed and George look at how the first two weeks of this extraordinary Presidency is going, and how other world leaders are handling this new Trump era. And plans for a football regulator has widespread political support - so why does the Premier League remain so hostile to the idea?Become a member of POLITICAL CURRENCY GOLD 🏅 to support the podcast, enjoy ad-free listening to all our episodes and receive early access to EMQs.Subscribe now: patreon.com/politicalcurrency Producers: Caillin McDaid, Miriam Hall and Rosie StopherTechnical Producer: Danny PapeExecutive Producer: Ellie CliffordPolitical Currency is a Persephonica Production and is part of the Acast Creator Network.
