Starmer addresses G20 summit - but Trump boycotts talks
Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer is in Johannesburg for the summit - and he spoke about the bloc's "critical" importance on its first day...
"Growth must be a mission for us all to embrace as the means to improve lives, fund public services and to keep our people secure.
"The G20 has worked together before to fix fundamental problems in the global economy. We need to find ways to play a constructive role again today in the face of the world challenges.
"I'd like to see us come together around a five-point plan for growth that leaves no one behind."
Ah yes, that's Starmer-talk, a five-point plan. Could be turbocharged as well, but we can't have everything.
Meanwhile a more sensible approach -
Marco Rubio, the US secretary of state, skipped a foreign ministers meeting in February, and said that he would not waste American taxpayers money on an agenda which was focused on diversity, equity and inclusion and climate change.

Weary Kiery has a five point plan, ee - aye - ee - aye - oh.
Not a Trump fan, but sometimes........
dearieme - And in that plan there's lots of tax, ee - aye - ee - aye - oh.
Chris - yes, sometimes the rot reaches a stage where nothing less will do.
In the interest of efficiency ( and political 'events') the 5 point plan will smoothly degrade into a 4 point plan, then a 3 point plan, and so on.
Isn't there some sort of TV game for thickos called 'Pointless'?
Sounds familiar...
DJ - in the end, Starmer would probably be more comfortable with a 0 point plan, it's where they all end up.
Scrobs - I think there is, if so it should be about voting and politics.
