- With Keir Starmer currently attending the Nato summit in Washington, LBC's Political Editor, Natasha Clark, spoke to the PM about Joe Biden, dangerous prisons and more.
US President Biden has come under fire for his lacklustre performance in a recent presidential debate against Donald Trump and many have urged him to step down.
However, Starmer stresses that Biden was on 'good form' during their discussion and the pair covered a 'whole range of issues'.
“I saw him last night for what was going to be 45 minutes for a bilateral, it ended up being the best part of an hour.
“We went through a whole range of issues, strategic issues, global issues, we did them at pace because we needed to cover a lot of ground. He was on good form. And it was a real opportunity for us to talk through those issues, reaffirm the special relationship between our two countries."

"I was going to see him for 45 minutes but I actually saw him for the best part of an hour" 45 minutes is literally the best part of an hour, is he bragging that he saw him for 5 minutes more?
Spot on. Exactly my thoughts. I bet it included the time from when he started to walk to see him and it took him ages to get Biden to understand that his Daaaaaad pause. Was a toolmaker.
@@user-bl4xm6nq3vWell. When you go and see The K.I.N.G.'s great uncle. Isn't that something to bragg about (opposed to Satan himself)?
That's exactly what I thought. Can you imagine how exilerating that conversation was?
Basic maths for you - 60 minutes minus 45 = 15 (33% more)
@@deepjohny7 trust me if it was 60 minutes he'd have said an hour not 'the best part of an hour' lol
What a pointless question. He's hardly going to call the US president a vegetable is he 😂
Two vegetables together. They would have got on well.
@@Onlinepropertyexplorer Wow I didn't know you were in the room! Tell us more!
Because he isn't, president Biden had one bad night, trump told a lie one every 90 secs and didn't answer one question!
@@Onlinepropertyexplorer You don't sound biased at all with a comment like that.
Exactly, it's a ridiculous question.
Joe Biden is on form? we are in for a rough ride with this joker
In fairness, you can't be calling one of your most powerful allies senile
@@FirelordAzula-xt6pkto be fair Joe isn't an ally, he's just another puppet like Starmer
Would have been better for him to refuse to comment and say its doctors job to make those sorts of assessments, just like we need a gender expert to explain to us simpletons, what a woman is.
@@hollyclough6761 Your heart is in the wrong place.
Not fair on peodo joe
Just, repulsive.
Is there anything Starmer won't lie about......rhetorical question, hence no question mark 😉
'rhetorical question' - is there anything a losing Tory won't complain and talk BS about.
Lies, lies, lies. I don't trust a word this guy says.
Please supply details of the 'lies. I trust him a great deal (well, as much as you can trust ANY politician. I think he came over as very sincere and completely in charge of the situation.I assume you're a 'sour grapes' Tory whowas prejudiced against him from the start, and didn't really think about a single word he said. He'll make a GREAT Prime Minister, so give him a chance.
@@deepjohny7 He's a leftie , so is automatically a liar . Socialism itself is a lie . Making all socialists liars .
That's not what lies are.
When joe biden thought zelensky was putin 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I bet 'Brandon' thought Starmer was Macron.
Starmers voice has changed overnight.
Because England won.
Bizarre isn’t it. He seems so much more comfortable now.
@@clairduffy60😂😂 not sure about that one…
@@clairduffy60 He doesn't care about England. He cares about Europe. It's on video. This man has been sent in to disrupt Britain and disintegrate it because he's a puppet agent of the WEF.
@@NailahRoberts fake voice for UK public
Here we go with blaming the previous government..... Blah blah blah blah blah blah
Biden has been playing that card for 4 years. Starmer reckons it’ll work twice.
So, the Tories wouldn't do such a thing, would they? HAHAHA!
@@deepjohny7 So lefties and Tories are the same ? ( They are )
@@chasleask8533 exactly
@@deepjohny7do you remember Blair? Well he's back. Much much richer. As are his cohorts.
I am not from the UK but the water situation is criminal. They should nationalize the water companies. It make no sense to have a 'free market' for water. It is a natural monopoly, are you going to have 5 different companies makes pipes so consumers can choice one? It was a mistake and makes absolutely zero sense. Just ramp up the regulation requirements and these companies will go bust so the state can get them on the cheap.
Labour have started legislating against water recently so I am hopeful that they're going in the right direction
I live in Scotland, unlike England and Wales our water is nationalised. The water bill is part of our council tax bill (which band for band is still cheaper than England and Wales water included). England and Wales are putting up council tax rates and water bills, neither of which will happen in Scotland. And they don't pollute the waterways here. I can't understand why anyone in their right mind would be opposed to nationalising it
@@jr-hr2mw exactly! It should never been privatised as it’s a monopoly for each region (apart from the fact it’s essential to life)
Exactly, key services shouldn't be for profit for sharholders to make money from. The water companies clearly haven't been investing in the infrastructure.
My brother used to work for one of the nationalised water companies & found it was full of people who wanted to do as little work as possible. Whilst private monopoly is not an ideal substitute for a public one, it still exerts a degree of efficiency by virtue of satisfying its regulator & stakeholders.
Witness public Network Rail that took on exactly the same role as private Railtrack, and has more than double the staff & 4x the budget.
"Yeah - the president is as sharp as a tack. We talked about the fairies under his bed, the recent ice-cream drought, how untrustworthy stairs can be, the benefit of men's diapers (I had to look that one up) and whether I thought I'd sooner live in the White House instead of Buckingham Palace. I'm really looking forward to working with him..."
YAWN!
Both of the same Level of cognitivity. But at least Biden can blame his advanced years, whereas Starmer has as much charisma as a dish rag.
You were obviously biassed against him to start. I thought he came over extremely well, and he'll do a great job.
@@deepjohny7 . . . . . . . and all the charisma of a third rate bank clerk .
this man is the 'global threat'
What the heck are you talking about?
@@deepjohny7 hes doing his best to aggravate putin thats what im talkin about
Why are they all asking if the PM thinks Biden should stand down? That's a matter for Americans not the British PM ffs.
That does it , now we know starter is a compromised puppet. Zero support.
HUH?
Labour Broadcasting Company now , is it ? This foolish covering up for a very sick man is getting dangerous. For all of us . I wish Starmer would tell the truth for once.
Liar
You are this mad on the first week. Get used to it buddy its 5 years. Take a break or you will go insane
The fact other world leaders are now getting dragged in makes it even more scary and shows how controlled they all are.
Why is it dangerous? Explain.
@@HibijibiCraft Fool
What percentage of prisoners are from overseas?
They are in hotels thanks to tories
Constant blaming "previous government " as a strategy to hide behind the issues. Classic manipulation.
Because they are taking over from a government that created a paradise, right?
The Tories have literally broken everything. I know it's a classic political trick but it happens to be rather true this time around. Also TBF I'm hearing a lot more 'here's what we're doing to start to fix things' than I thought we'd hear in the first week - I assumed it would be 100% just blaming the Tories. Water companies already encouraged (forced) to agree to new operating models, actual negotiations with the doctors - they're not hanging about
@Welcome_The_Revolution Oh yeah, Race Equality Bill, which is critical race theory on steroids. Legislation for rented properties that's going to increase homelessness horrifically and cancelling energy production at home, increasing our bills and putting money in the hands of tyrants. Great start.
How is it manipulation when it's the truth?
Unlike the Tories, of course. HAHAHA!
And when Keir met FDR they went jogging together, night clubbing, break dancing…..no sign of any wheelchair.
This man is so dishonest, we can easily look at his contradicting comments, he is an out and out liar.
@2wat205 You missed the T
He's really shady.
Oh yeah and the Tories were so honest
What details can you offer to back up your insulting and unfounded statement? You're not just another 'sour grapes' losing Tory, are you?
@@deepjohny7 I’m not a Tory, I voted for Corbin, a real labour leader. Starmer went to Liverpool and told the people that he would never have anything to do with sun news paper because of the way they treated Liverpool fans and then he started writing for the sun. That’s just one, I haven’t got time to write everything he has lied about but do your own research and you will see
I think you’re full of it. I’m sorry. Don’t believe the word of it all of a sudden he’s bright as a button.

liar
WHY???
Joe in top form 😅😅😂😂😂 must have had a new flavour of ice 🍦🍨 had him feeling like a young buck again!!😊
Even Trump showed signs of sympathy
You SPELT F*CK WRONG 😂😂😂😂
What a great politician! Effortlessly lying.
What EXACTLY are you accusing him of lying about? Facts please and not just Tory losing sour grapes.
@@deepjohny7 his appraisal of Joe Biden.
Joe was on top form , he didnt know who the F I was . Maybe it was the glasses ? .
@knotpaulls1347 Everybody knows you ARE the law!
45 mins is best part of an hour
Not best enough apparently for Sir Keir
It's actually 33% LESS.
His ruling out nationalisation of Thames water is a bit of a red flag for me, as a Labour voter.
Just nationalise water pls
It'll come. Lots of factors to balance carefully at this stage. Do it right, and it won't cost the tax payer (much) to buy out shareholders, which is what would need to happen today.
It will happen, hopefully sooner than later!
Haha you're dreaming. Starmer will shake the magic money tree, find 20 billion pounds to pay off all of the water companies debts, and let them remain private so long as they 'promise' to improve.
Great so one union in charge of all our water with strike laws being relaxed. Giving a monopoly to a unionised essential infrastructre has never gone wrong.
Starmer thinks sleepy Joe really with it and the moon's a balloon.
Hilarious. We know they both lie 😂😂😂
What do you think he's going to say? Yes the world's foremost military power and driving force behind the military alliance that keeps our country safe is being led by a senile fool? What a great move that would have been...
I'm not sure who you're referring to as 'We'. Maybe you've done a worldwide poll. LOL
here is a man who will do as he is told. Yawn.
Kinda enjoying somebody speaking like a grown up, as if we also were grown ups.
That's how competent people sound.
Yes but not too grown up if you know what I mean. He’s still gunna win but it’s still important
nope, that's how robotic, soulless party apparatchik sounds.
@@user-ze8zo5uv2sI just learnt a new word thanks

I agree. I think Starmer come over extremely well, and he'll make a GREAT Prime Minister.
Waste of time for Starmer to meet Biden as Trump will win the next US election... we'll see if he's up to the job once he meets him 😊
Nice propaganda LBC. Asking only questions previously agreed. Utter garbage
What ARE you talking about? What, EXACTLY, was 'garbage' about it?
Oh dear!, Having to publicly back Biden at this juncture could well come back to bite him in the not too distant future (Hehehe)
Opposed to backing trump? No thank you.

They both got on because they both are unable to put an intelligent sentence together, when they try to it's utter bulls**t that comes out.
Nah Biden can't focus long enough to finish a sentence, but Starmer chooses to lie.
I think Starmer is extremely well educated and eloquent, and he'll make an EXCELLENT Prime Minister.
@@deepjohny7 Can't stop laughing at that reply.
This guy is such a flaky lier!
I guess you mean, 'LIAR', but I don't take notice of losing 'sour grapes' Tories. I think Starmer will make a GREAT Prime Minister.
Starmer spoke to Biden on a paralle world
Utterly delusional.
How do you know this guy is lying? Because his lips are moving.
What a liar.
The Goldfish-In-Chief will have forgotten who this piece of wood was as soon as he left the room.
FATTY the Convicted Felon wouldn't know who he was even before entering the room, much less after he left..
FATTY just admitted he never knew what NATO was before he entered the White House.
That's the level of stupidity we're dealing with.
You know Joe Biden thought this guy was John Wayne no cap😂
Starts off his job by lying, typical politician.
About what?
@@jcmusic5150 Bidens cognitive ability
My right ear loved this one
Who is your audio engineer? The sound is pathetic guys, get a grip
Well, he's hardly going to say Biden was a dribbling cabbage.
Because he isn't.
I remember Labour MPs stopping the deportation of criminals, who went on to commit more crimes.
“We were supposed to talk for 45 minutes but we actually spoke for 50 minutes”
Asked in the same interview Joe replied it was great meeting Kim Jog On. 🤣😂🤣
Wow, you were seeing Biden for 45 minutes but he managed another 5 without needing a nap. Well done Joe🎉
Find that hard to believe Mr Starmer the poor man is a shadow of what what he was.
Most people would agree, but do you expect ANY British Prime Minister to say that about a current American President?
Couldn't tell you the truth if his life dependent on it
It's OK, Johnson's gone now. The adults are in charge. You can drop the lying accusations
1 week at number 10 and hes already more concerned about other countries than our own.
Kiers finally found someone with the same mental capacity to have a chat too, couldn't trust either of them to run a bath let alone country's
Now I know I can't trust Starmer! If he can't recognise someone not right in the head there's no hope. We can find places for illegal immigrants but not criminals!
I am a life long labour voter and this man makes me physically sick with fear for a WEF driven future.
Yes, of COURSE you are. YAWN!
Waiting for Biden to ask where's Mrs Thatcher
Any politician just can’t answer a question with a straight answer it’s infuriating
😂Takes one Mug to know another!
What's the chances of Starmer saying anything amiss about a fellow left-winger? In which case what are those clown-like tumbling tricks and verbal salads plastered all over the internet? Can they all be bogus?
Of course joe is fit for the pranks. Please keep him in power with vice president Trumps and Putin as Ukrainian president.
At least the world can laugh another five years.
We don’t want people to have high bills!…..but we’re quite happy to send everyone’s money overseas to wars we should have no part in lol
What the heck are you talking about? Anyway, if what you say is true, then it's the last Tory govt and NOT Keir Starmer who are responsible.
@@deepjohny7 my point is they want to do this and that to help the people, but they’ll happily waste money elsewhere which we then need to pay for. Yes the previous lot got us into pointless wars etc, but Kier won’t get us out of them. You’re out of your mind if you think we will
This man is selectively blind to what most other people see with absolute clarity!
Peter Welch stated he wouldn't support President Biden, I can not support him. He lost my vote. He needs to be voted out, that United States Democracy.
I think it’s more not to embarrass Biden. They have just spoken and I really think the us will try and get him to step down. It will be cruel letting him stay in power. :(
I think it is time he gives slagging the Tories a rest and get on with running the Country.
We knew the prison were full before Starmer was elected???
I can't unsee Douglas Murray wearing a blonde wig 🤭
Our PM looks attractive here. I am so proud.
Another 1 going along with the elder abuse
Now that's a Prime Mnister 👏 great job to my UK brother's and sisters!!
Blaming the previous government is his stock answèr.
How come Bukele can build a super prison for 40,000 in 6 months…so we can too!
nearly 400 million people in the usa and out of them all they want someone who cant hardly srting a sentence together as the head of the most powerful country in the world. he should be in a care home not the blumming white house.
Oh gosh... 🤦♂️
An endorsement from Starmer. What else can go wrong for Biden
I'm so glad he has maximum safe and effective protection. Thanks
He's already let out the leader of the Rochdale gang
It seems you made that up.
This WEF sock puppet
Biden thought Starmer was his mummy .
Jordan Peterson said that in order for tyrannies to survive , everyone has to lie about everything to everyone else . Here is Kier Starmer beginning the process . ( Mind you he didn't say he was 'sharp as a tack' . Black mark. )
Starmer can’t lie straight in bed.
I bet that was an exciting meeting. Yawn.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Starmer once again has not answered questions and wants to blame the Conservatives at every occasion. Labour say nothing and do nothing.
Biden 😂 , Starmer 😂
Is this a joke? 🤣
He's a liar. Theyre all lying.
This guys lies so easily. he has such talent
45 minutes?
Isn't _that_ the best part of an hour ?
NO - it's THREE QUARTERS of an hour to be precise.
@johnsmithers7
"Best part" means "more than half"
He looks much better governing than campaigning. While no one is underestimating the task he's been given he seems to relish it. But what a task, the prison system is in crisis, the NHS is in crisis, water companies are in crisis, the housing market is in crisis, our borders are in crisis and the Tories still think they should be in government.
He's not being questioned that's why. He also reads from a script like jo biden.
It’s all in crisis, nothing will change, because Starmer is a Globalist, the decline will continue
And all he's interested in is Ukraine, Israel. Can't fix anything can increase weapon spending by 2.5% 😮
They chatted for so long cos Starmer mentioned his Dad was a toolmaker.
He introduced Zelensky as Putin 😂😂
You can Trust Starmer to tell it as it is :)
1 hour you covered everything in 1 hour with biden says it all about our "special relationship"
Embarrassing to say the least
I was meant to see him for 45 mins but it turned out be the best part of an hour.
