you love Donald J Trump did not hold
00:01:05
back today his inaugural speech was as
00:01:08
big as aggressive as swaggering as full
00:01:11
of optimism and pride and frankly hubris
00:01:15
as we could possibly have imagined I was
00:01:18
saved by God from the Assassin's bullet
00:01:20
he said to make America great again the
00:01:23
25% tariff what it means for the UK this
00:01:26
isn't just some political posturing a
00:01:28
25% tax on br British exports to the US
00:01:31
is a direct hit to our economy take our
00:01:34
beloved car industry for example a
00:01:36
british-made Range Rover could see its
00:01:38
price Skyrocket in the US market imagine
00:01:41
sales plummeting jobs Vanishing and
00:01:44
industries crumbling this isn't just
00:01:46
about numbers it's about real lives real
00:01:49
jobs and the Very backbone of our
00:01:51
economy and what's starma doing well it
00:01:54
seems like he's caught in the headlights
00:01:56
unsure whether to push back or back down
00:01:59
well well as we said you know the eyes
00:02:01
of the world are watching what's
00:02:02
happening here in Washington including
00:02:04
over in the UK and in the UK today sir
00:02:06
Kier starmer has been responding to the
00:02:08
enormous security failures that led to
00:02:10
the Southport knife attack in the summer
00:02:13
you will remember it led to several
00:02:14
weeks of rioting across the UK in the
00:02:17
summer prevent that it is the
00:02:18
government's anti it's as if he never
00:02:20
imagined someone would challenge him on
00:02:22
this scale meanwhile Business Leaders
00:02:25
are in a frenzy pleading for answers and
00:02:27
getting little more than vague
00:02:28
reassurances
00:02:30
Trump's personal attacks and st's weak
00:02:32
response this isn't just about tariffs
00:02:35
Trump has taken direct aim at starm
00:02:37
calling his leadership week that's right
00:02:40
the president of the United States is
00:02:41
publicly questioning our prime
00:02:43
minister's ability to lead now there are
00:02:45
recent reports that KIA st's UK is
00:02:48
refusing to rename the Gulf of Mexico to
00:02:51
the Gulf of America this is one of
00:02:53
Trump's first actions as president do
00:02:55
you think this is an insult to Donald
00:02:56
Trump so I mean I have great sympathy
00:02:59
with Donald Trump wanting to rename it
00:03:00
the Gulf of America because maralago
00:03:03
overlooks it apart from anything else he
00:03:05
wants to put America First make America
00:03:08
great again it's like watching a
00:03:09
schoolyard bully taking on the new kid
00:03:11
except this playground is the global
00:03:13
economy starmer's response a weak
00:03:16
attempt at playing it cool while
00:03:18
everything crumbles around him but let's
00:03:20
be real here nobody's buying the
00:03:22
everything's fine act when billions of
00:03:24
pounds are on the line it's not just
00:03:26
embarrassing it's downright dangerous
00:03:28
for Britain's Global stand
00:03:30
I mean the Trouble Is Right my problem I
00:03:32
mean I've already known for some time
00:03:33
that K was one of the worst Prime
00:03:34
Ministers we have ever seen um but with
00:03:37
the Advent of of the um inauguration of
00:03:39
Donald Trump he looks even worse and I
00:03:41
mean I'm counting the days right five
00:03:43
days in they have not had a conversation
00:03:45
Donald Trump has not bothered to call K
00:03:47
starma he's not promising to come and
00:03:48
visit him starma doesn't seem to know
00:03:50
which end is up it's not looking good is
00:03:52
it crime rates and National Security a
00:03:55
growing concern as if the Tariff crisis
00:03:58
wasn't enough Britain's Rising crime
00:04:00
rates are raising eyebrows around the
00:04:02
world violent crime in England and Wales
00:04:04
has seen a significant uptick leaving
00:04:06
many questioning star's ability to keep
00:04:08
Britain safe remember the tragic
00:04:11
Southpaw murders those high-profile
00:04:13
cases have cast a dark shadow over our
00:04:16
justice system leaving allies like
00:04:17
Australia and Japan wondering if we can
00:04:20
even protect our own streets are we too
00:04:23
soft I mean starma wanted 16 year olds
00:04:25
to vote didn't he I want to see 16 and
00:04:27
17 year olds voting they can go out and
00:04:31
work uh they can serve in our armed
00:04:34
forces and of course if they are out and
00:04:36
working they pay tax and therefore they
00:04:39
should have a say over how the money
00:04:41
they're paying in this isn't just about
00:04:43
domestic concerns it's about trust on
00:04:45
the global stage when allies hesitate to
00:04:48
share intelligence with us because of
00:04:49
our Rising crime rates it's a clear sign
00:04:52
that star's leadership is faltering
00:04:54
brexit backlash starma EU Obsession
00:04:56
let's talk about brexit remember when
00:04:59
Britain decided to leave the EU it was a
00:05:01
bold move for Independence but starma
00:05:04
seems to have forgotten all about it is
00:05:06
flirting with the idea of rejoining EU
00:05:08
related trade schemes sparking fears
00:05:11
that Britain is losing its sovereignty
00:05:12
all over again okay more broadly how are
00:05:15
you what do you think about st's
00:05:17
attitude towards Trump do you think that
00:05:19
the labor diplomacy has been good so far
00:05:22
when dealing with the new president I
00:05:24
think labor incapable of making up for
00:05:27
their previous condemnation of President
00:05:30
Trump and even after I mean we all know
00:05:32
about the vitriolic language used the
00:05:34
denouncing language used by Lamie starma
00:05:37
and others about everyone in the labor
00:05:39
Administration Trump's team is fuming
00:05:41
accusing starma of aligning too closely
00:05:43
with Brussels and they're not wrong this
00:05:45
EU obsession is putting billions of
00:05:47
pounds in US trade at risk it's a
00:05:50
betrayal of the brexit spirit and it's
00:05:52
making Britain look weak and indecisive
00:05:54
on the world stage diplomatic Fiasco is
00:05:57
the mandon mess then there's the Peter
00:05:59
mandon controversy st's pick for UK
00:06:02
ambassador to the US has ties to China
00:06:04
and Trump's team is not having it this
00:06:07
isn't just a minor hiccup it's a
00:06:08
full-blown diplomatic disaster European
00:06:11
Union you know I think it's quite clear
00:06:12
that this labor party uh risk of using
00:06:16
the Trump presidency as a way of cozying
00:06:18
up more to Europe uh so perhaps that'll
00:06:21
provide some Solace to them if not to
00:06:23
the British public um For Whom the
00:06:25
relationship that we have with America
00:06:27
is is very very important particular
00:06:29
particularly when Trump is talking about
00:06:31
imposing tariffs um on China uh on the
00:06:35
EU and of course on Britain as well even
00:06:37
members of st's own party are
00:06:39
questioning his judgment if the US
00:06:42
rejects mandon it would be an
00:06:43
unprecedented humiliation for Britain
00:06:46
the charos islands gamble starmer's
00:06:49
decision to hand over the charos islands
00:06:51
to maius has sparked
00:06:53
outrage Diego Garcia a critical US
00:06:56
military base in the Indian Ocean is at
00:06:58
the center of this
00:07:00
controversy starmer's plan to lease it
00:07:02
back for 99 years at a cost of 990
00:07:05
million annually has left military
00:07:07
experts and Trump's team Furious we'll
00:07:10
see I don't think it's necessarily the
00:07:11
starm is just sitting by the phone but
00:07:14
it's also the contrast that's now being
00:07:17
drawn between Donald Trump and his
00:07:20
attitude towards leadership and that of
00:07:22
K starma in the way in which Trump is
00:07:24
talking up America and labor have really
00:07:27
spent the last six months talking down
00:07:29
Britain and it's left Rachel Reeves
00:07:31
going to Davos and having to sort of
00:07:32
have her begging bowl out and saying oh
00:07:34
please come and invest in Britain this
00:07:36
isn't just about one base it's about
00:07:38
Britain's role in global
00:07:40
security and right now st's move is
00:07:43
putting that role in Jeopardy a laughing
00:07:46
Stark on the world stage as if all this
00:07:48
wasn't enough world leaders are openly
00:07:50
mocking
00:07:51
starma from Australia to Japan our prime
00:07:54
minister is being compared to everything
00:07:56
from jelly to Mr Bean it's not just
00:07:59
embarrassing it's a clear indication
00:08:01
that Britain's Global reputation is
00:08:03
taking a hit send Elite squads of ice
00:08:06
border patrol and federal law
00:08:08
enforcement offices to hunt down arrest
00:08:11
and Deport every last illegal alien gang
00:08:13
member until there is not a single one
00:08:15
left in this country and if they come
00:08:19
back into our
00:08:21
country they will be told it is an
00:08:24
automatic 10year sentence in jail with
00:08:27
no possibility of par and who's loving
00:08:30
every moment of this Donald Trump the
00:08:34
former US president is using every
00:08:36
opportunity to highlight st's missteps
00:08:39
painting him as weak indecisive and
00:08:41
unfit to lead on the world the bigger
00:08:43
picture what's at stake this isn't just
00:08:44
about tariffs crime or diplomatic gaffs
00:08:48
it's about Britain's future our economy
00:08:50
our security and our place in the
00:08:53
world every misstep by starma chips away
00:08:56
at our reputation and leaves us more
00:08:58
vulnerable on the globe
00:09:00
stage the stakes couldn't be higher and
00:09:02
right now it feels like Britain is
00:09:04
losing the game I am very Pro Trump's
00:09:08
rhetoric and I think that that kind of
00:09:11
tone is what we need to see in the UK
00:09:14
yeah because we have become an
00:09:17
absolutely laughable soft touch for all
00:09:21
of this stuff and we know that the
00:09:25
government is extremely Keen to cast a
00:09:29
heavy Veil over the scale of let's zoom
00:09:33
in on the potential economic shock waves
00:09:35
that Trump's 25% tariff threat could
00:09:38
unleash it's not just about luxury cars
00:09:41
and high-end Goods this is about every
00:09:43
British household feeling the sting take
00:09:46
everyday products like tea biscuits and
00:09:48
even whiskey the United States is the
00:09:51
single largest export market for Scotch
00:09:54
whiskey accounting for over1 billion
00:09:57
annually a tariff hike of2 5% would
00:10:00
the industry forcing prices to
00:10:02
Skyrocket in American stores and
00:10:04
reducing
00:10:05
demand those were cheerleading Tommy
00:10:07
Robinson not interested in Justice
00:10:10
they're supporting a man who went to
00:10:13
prison for nearly collapsing a grooming
00:10:15
case a gang grooming case these are
00:10:18
people are trying to get some kind of
00:10:19
vicarious thrill from Street violence
00:10:21
that people like Tommy Robinson promote
00:10:23
distilleries across Scotland could be
00:10:24
forced to shut their doors impacting
00:10:27
tourism jobs and Regional econ
00:10:29
economies the Ripple effects would be
00:10:32
catastrophic when one industry collapses
00:10:35
others inevitably
00:10:37
follow suppliers packaging companies
00:10:40
Logistics firms entire Supply Chains
00:10:42
would face unprecedented
00:10:44
strain the fear is that this isn't just
00:10:46
a financial hit it's the dismantling of
00:10:48
centuries old industries that Define
00:10:50
Britain's
00:10:51
Heritage the UDS as a bully or savior
00:10:54
but let's take a step back and ask why
00:10:56
is Trump pushing so hard
00:10:59
is this pure malice or is there a method
00:11:01
to his
00:11:02
Madness the truth is Trump sees
00:11:05
opportunity he knows that Britain Post
00:11:08
brexit is
00:11:10
vulnerable the UK is navigating new
00:11:12
Waters trying to establish itself as a
00:11:14
global player outside the European Union
00:11:18
Trump sees a chance to force Britain
00:11:20
into economic dependence on the UPS
00:11:22
securing advantageous trade deals that
00:11:24
would cement America's
00:11:26
dominance for Trump this isn't personal
00:11:28
it's business
00:11:30
but for starma it should be
00:11:32
personal every move Trump makes
00:11:34
undermines Britain's sovereignty and the
00:11:36
lack of a firm response signals
00:11:38
weakness starma silence a dangerous game
00:11:41
lets talk about leadership or the
00:11:43
glaring lack of it starmer's approach to
00:11:46
this crisis can best be described as
00:11:48
wait and see but in politics hesitation
00:11:52
is
00:11:52
fatal compare this to how leaders like
00:11:55
Margaret Thatcher or Winston Churchill
00:11:57
might have responded
00:11:59
Thatcher for instance wouldn't have
00:12:01
waited for Trump to dictate
00:12:03
terms she would have taken control
00:12:05
rallying both her government and the
00:12:07
public with a clear decisive strategy
00:12:10
Churchill's Legacy is built on his
00:12:12
ability to inspire confidence even in
00:12:14
the darkest
00:12:15
times starma on the other hand seems
00:12:18
incapable of delivering a unifying
00:12:21
message his speeches are flat his
00:12:23
strategies vague and his actions
00:12:25
reactive rather than
00:12:27
proactive this isn't just about Optics
00:12:29
it's about
00:12:30
survival a leader who cannot command
00:12:33
respect at home will struggle to be
00:12:34
taken seriously
00:12:36
abroad brexit shadow looms large it's
00:12:38
impossible to discuss Britain's current
00:12:40
predicament without acknowledging the
00:12:42
lingering impact of
00:12:43
brexit the decision to leave the
00:12:45
European Union was a seismic shift and
00:12:48
the aftershocks are still being felt
00:12:50
today brexit promised freedom and
00:12:52
opportunity a chance for Britain to
00:12:54
chart its own
00:12:55
course but in reality it left the nation
00:12:58
scrambling to renegotiate trade deals
00:13:00
rebuild alliances and redefine its role
00:13:03
on the global stage starmer's leadership
00:13:06
has done little to capitalize on the
00:13:08
opportunities brexit
00:13:10
presented instead of forging bold new
00:13:12
alliances he seems preoccupied with
00:13:14
repairing old
00:13:16
ones this fixation on the EU is not only
00:13:19
alienating voters but also sending mixed
00:13:21
signals to potential trade Partners like
00:13:23
the US the people's perspective while
00:13:26
politicians play their games it's
00:13:28
ordinary people people who bear the
00:13:29
brunt of these
00:13:31
decisions farmers in Yorkshire Factory
00:13:33
workers in Birmingham small business
00:13:35
owners in Cornwall these are the people
00:13:37
who will feel the real impact of Trump's
00:13:39
tariffs and stamas in action imagine a
00:13:42
small family-owned farm that exports
00:13:44
cheese to the
00:13:45
U a 25% tariff would make their products
00:13:49
uncompetitive
00:13:50
overnight the farm could face bankruptcy
00:13:53
leaving generations of hard work and
00:13:55
tradition in
00:13:56
Ruins this isn't just an economic issue
00:13:59
it's a human one families will lose
00:14:02
their livelihoods communities will
00:14:04
suffer and the national psyche will take
00:14:06
yet another hit Trump's calculated chaos
00:14:09
lets not underestimate Trump's
00:14:11
strategy his approach might seem chaotic
00:14:14
but there's a clear method behind the
00:14:16
Madness by targeting Britain at this
00:14:19
vulnerable moment he setting an example
00:14:21
for other nations cross the uees and
00:14:24
there will be
00:14:25
consequences Trump thrives on creating
00:14:28
uncertainty
00:14:29
his erratic Behavior keeps opponents off
00:14:32
balance making it difficult for them to
00:14:34
mount an effective
00:14:35
response but here's the thing
00:14:37
uncertainty is a luxury that only Trump
00:14:39
can
00:14:40
afford for Britain it's a disaster
00:14:42
waiting to happen the charos islands a
00:14:46
strategic gamble the decision to lease
00:14:47
Diego Garcia back to maius for 990
00:14:50
million annually is a classic example of
00:14:53
short-term gain at the expense of
00:14:54
long-term
00:14:55
stability this isn't just a Bas it's a
00:14:58
geopolitical IC asset Diego Garcia plays
00:15:01
a crucial role in monitoring Chinese and
00:15:04
Russian activity in the Indian
00:15:06
Ocean without it Britain and its allies
00:15:08
lose a critical vantage point in one of
00:15:10
the world's most contested
00:15:12
regions what's worse this move risks
00:15:15
alienating the US military relationship
00:15:18
that has been a Cornerstone of Britain's
00:15:19
defense strategy for
00:15:21
decades if the ESS decides to pull back
00:15:24
its presence the implications for Global
00:15:26
Security are dire what Arma doing he's
00:15:30
shrugging it off like it's just another
00:15:32
headline to ignore but let me tell you
00:15:35
this isn't a storm that's going to pass
00:15:37
on its own Trump isn't just flexing his
00:15:40
power for fun his testing starma metal
00:15:42
and so far the results aren't pretty a
00:15:45
leadership vacuum lets address the
00:15:46
elephant in the room
00:15:48
leadership st's handling of this crisis
00:15:51
if we can even call it handling is
00:15:52
nothing short of
00:15:54
disastrous instead of presenting a
00:15:56
robust counter strategy his spinning
00:15:58
vague re insurances that are doing
00:15:59
little to inspire
00:16:01
confidence this isn't just about
00:16:03
diplomacy it's about
00:16:05
survival a strong leader would have
00:16:07
rallied the nation laid out a clear
00:16:09
action plan and shown Trump that Britain
00:16:11
won't be bullied but what do we have a
00:16:15
prime minister who seems more interested
00:16:17
in damage control than taking decisive
00:16:19
action even st's own party is starting
00:16:22
to question his ability to steer the
00:16:24
ship whisperings of dissatisfaction are
00:16:27
growing louder in Westminster and some
00:16:29
MPS are reportedly considering drastic
00:16:31
measures if the situation doesn't
00:16:34
improve mandles son's misstep a
00:16:36
diplomatic disaster Peter mandl's
00:16:38
nomination as UK ambassador to the US is
00:16:41
shaping up to be one of the most
00:16:43
controversial decisions of starmer's
00:16:45
tenue mandles son's ties to China are a
00:16:48
glaring conflict of interest and Trump's
00:16:50
Administration isn't about to overlook
00:16:52
them the backlash was Swift and
00:16:55
brutal conservative commentators like
00:16:57
Nigel farage were quick to label the
00:16:59
decision a catastrophic blunder and even
00:17:01
labor loyalists are questioning the
00:17:03
wisdom of the
00:17:04
move if the ud death rejects mandon
00:17:07
outright The Diplomatic Fallout will be
00:17:10
unprecedented such a public humiliation
00:17:13
would undermine Britain's credibility
00:17:14
and complicate future negotiations on
00:17:17
everything from trade to
00:17:18
security st's moment of Reckoning the
00:17:21
question now is simple what will starma
00:17:23
do will he rise to the occasion and
00:17:26
prove himself as a leader or will he
00:17:28
continue to falter Under Pressure the
00:17:31
stakes couldn't be higher this isn't
00:17:33
just about salvaging his political
00:17:35
career it's about the future of the
00:17:37
nation if starma fails to navigate this
00:17:40
crisis the consequences will be felt for
00:17:43
