Summary

Beth is in Helsinki with the Prime Minister for an exclusive interview for the podcast. Keir Starmer has said he "hates the fact" that he made a "mistake" over the appointment of Peter Mandelson. "I dwell on it. I beat myself up about it," he told Beth, who is accompanying him on a visit to Finland, where he is taking part in a leaders' summit. Beth also questions him about his relationship with Trump following disparaging comments the President made about Starmer's response to the Iran war. Plus, Beth, Harriet and Ruth react to the full interview. Got a question for the burner phone? WhatsApp 07934 200 444 or email [email protected] .
