Скачать или смотреть "Desperate For A Trade Deal!" | Keir Starmer Arrives In China On First UK PM Visit Since 2018

Sir Keir Starmer has arrived in China on the first visit by a British Prime Minister in eight years.

A delegation of almost 60 representatives of British businesses and cultural institutions is accompanying the Prime Minister as he continues his efforts to build bridges with Beijing.

But concerns over the risk China poses to national security and Xi Jinping’s record on human rights mean Sir Keir’s visit is politically sensitive.

Speaking to reporters on the flight to Beijing, the Prime Minister said: “The evidence there are opportunities is the fact that we’ve got so many CEOs with us on this flight, that we’ve got 60 coming out to explore those opportunities.”

Speaking with Former Conservative Government Adviser Claire Pearsall, Talk's Julia Hartley-Brewer says: "China are laughing at us!"
