There’s a problem with Keir Starmer. He is a terrible communicator. His speech on Thursday was a mish-mash word-salad when what this country needs is a clear sense of leadership and direction to counter the rising tide of populism represented by Nigel Farage’s Reform. What we got instead was milestones, missions and foundations. If Britain is in a battle against far-right nationalism, is Keir Starmer the right general to lead it? The Matts discuss. And what does the chaos in France tell us about European politics? Can Macron survive the resignation of Barnier and what will Trump make of it all when he comes calling for the reopening of Notre Dame?
