It’s very nice that you’re here

Awkward! Starmer drops smile as Trump turns back on him at Middle East peace summit

Thanking a list of countries for their work in international conflicts, Trump mentioned Britain before turning to look for the prime minister who was standing among world leaders behind him.

“Where is the United Kingdom?” he asked, prompting Sir Keir to step forward and greet the US President.

The prime minister walked up towards the lectern to speak to Trump, shaking his hand and looking ready to address reporters gathered.

But Trump quickly took command of the microphone again, saying to Sir Keir: “Has everything gone good… it’s very nice that you’re here.”

By gum Starmer is embarrassing. We're off out into Derbyshire this morning, but I don't know what else to add as I can't work out what the blue blazes he thinks he's doing there. 

Oh well, time for some fresh air.
