00:10Are you doing enough to stop the riots, Prime Minister?
00:15Is there two-tier policing, Mr Starmer?
00:19Is there two-tier policing, Mr Starmer?
00:25Are you doing enough to stop the riots, Prime Minister?
00:40Thank you so much for making time for this visit so early into our government.
00:46We only formed a government four weeks or so ago, and so to be able to host you here
00:52is really a privilege for me.
00:56We have a long shared history between our countries, 400 years of friendship, very strong
01:02relations, and I want to ensure that we strengthen them even more.
01:07So I'm really grateful that you found time to come in to see us today.
01:11Well, I'm delighted to be here, Mr Prime Minister.
01:14First of all, to congratulate you.
01:18And to recognise this relation that you have mentioned.
01:21I think one of the agreements is, till the end of time, to implement another one.
01:27Good.
01:28Yes.
01:29So 400 years is nothing.
01:30It's nothing, yes.
01:31And we are emphasising this.
01:32Yes.
01:33And the strength of the relationship is across so many broad areas, you know, whether that's
01:42your economic vision, which is really important, 2040, defence and security, obviously, are
01:49very important to us.
01:52But also, the role that you play in the region is hugely important, so it's a very good,
01:56happy opportunity to discuss those issues with you today.
01:59Indeed.
02:00Indeed.
