Savvy
Starmer to visit US for second time as prime minister - but will he meet Harris and Trump?
A meeting between Sir Keir and Mr Trump would be a significant moment which would be seen as diplomatically savvy, especially if a meeting with Ms Harris materialises.
Savvy in the sense that it keeps the focus on Starmer and away from the rabble, or the Cabinet as it is sometimes called. This focus on Starmer seems to be the main aim of Labour spin doctors at the moment, which is understandable. We are also informed that -
"They will also discuss opportunities to strengthen US-UK cooperation to secure supply chains and increase climate resilience."
Which isn't at all savvy, although it does keep the focus off Ed Miliband. Unless he's also included in the high-carbon jolly of course.

Climate is still resilient, is it? I thought we had done it such damage that it would never bounce back.
Sam - good point, maybe we'll soon hear about climate repairs which will also cost pots of money.
I'd love to see a conversation between Trump and Starmer about the climate
Bucko - or about anything else, because Starmer doesn't have Trump's negotiating skills and would be pushed into saying what his position really is.
