Here’s what Ed Miliband has made of Donald Trump over the years:
2016: “We must do our best at home and abroad to resist the worst of Trumpism… These are dark days for America and the world. There can be little solace right now.”
2016: “The idea that we have shared values with a racist, misogynistic self-confessed groper beggars belief.”
2016: “Trump railing against China on Twitter like it is a Celebrity Apprentice feud is not funny, but deeply, deeply worrying for the world.”
2017: “Donald Trump has lowered the bar for idiocy”
2018: “You know, and what is objectionable about him? His racism? Uh, his misogyny? Uh, his incredibly peculiar relationship with Russia? And the truth. Most of all, the truth. And, you know, who he is as a person. I mean, There’s a line.”
2018: “The theory that if we are nice to Trump he’ll be nice to us doesn’t seem to be going brilliantly.”
2023: “A Trump-style climate culture war is not what the British people want.“
Good luck in the sensitive Foreign Secretary brief…
Krishnan Guru-Murthy asked John Healey: “Just finally, I mean Andy Burnham has been very clear he wants Britain back in the European Union in his lifetime. Do you?”
The Chancellor replied: “I’m older than Andy Burnham. I don’t expect to see that.”
