1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,160 Speaker 1: In the Brady UK correspondent is with us. 2 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 2: Hello, Inda, Heather Gright to speak to you. 3 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,000 Speaker 1: How did Kia Stama's meet and go with shooting pain. 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,480 Speaker 3: I think it's gone very well and it's very significant 5 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 3: because the first time a British Prime minister has met 6 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 3: the Chinese president for five years. 7 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: You have to go back to Theresa May. 8 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 3: And obviously this is all about growth and the economy 9 00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:24,279 Speaker 3: and business and money, and we're limping along here the 10 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 3: last quarter zero point one percent of growth in the 11 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 3: British economy. 12 00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 2: It's simply not good enough. 13 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 3: Starmer is a pragmatist and he's even said it in 14 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 3: his speech and talking to reporters in Brazil at the 15 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,320 Speaker 3: G twenty where this happened, he said he wants a 16 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,320 Speaker 3: serious and pragmatic relationship with China. It's all about business 17 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 3: and look, there will be some concerns over human rights 18 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 3: abuses and the treatment of the wigurs in certain regions 19 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 3: of China, but I think Starmar is just going to 20 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 3: pinch his nose on that one and just see if 21 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 3: he can develop relations with China in a way that 22 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 3: no prime minister has. 23 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: Cameron, is any part of this designed to kind of 24 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: irritate Trump. 25 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 3: I think it's Trump proofing in a way, as the 26 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 3: phrase I've been hearing around Europe and talking to certain 27 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 3: leaders and politicians and business people the last few weeks. 28 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 3: They're just trying to make sure that they're ready for 29 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 3: whatever happens. And I think the big fear in Europe 30 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,039 Speaker 3: is trade tariffs. 31 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,479 Speaker 2: That if he starts whacking on ten and twenty percent 32 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 2: on goods coming from. 33 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 3: Europe, you know, right now would be a very useful 34 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 3: time to be part of the European Union block, twenty 35 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 3: seven nations all pulling together, and the UK, by virtue 36 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:39,400 Speaker 3: of the brilliant idea that Briggs it was, is sitting 37 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 3: on the sidelines, licking its wounds. 38 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: And going nowhere. 39 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 3: So Starmer has decided that, you know, take positive action, 40 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 3: become friends with g and just see what happens. 41 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: And you know what, it also feels like it might 42 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: be done to slightly dissuade Donald Trump from those terraffs, 43 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: because what Stam is indicating is that's cool, mate, you 44 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: can hit me with the teriff. I'm just going to 45 00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: pivot this way. 46 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I think the big fear for Europe will 47 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: be that if China gets hit with tariffs from Trump, 48 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 3: that Europe will get flooded with an awful lot of 49 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: even cheaper Chinese goods that they want to offload. Certainly, 50 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: the EV vehicle scene is something that is taxing a 51 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 3: lot of brains in the European Union right now. They're very, 52 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 3: very concerned because the Chinese evs are so much cheaper 53 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 3: than anything they're making in Germany right now. 54 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: For example. 55 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 3: So it's look, it's a fascinating time. Plus Starmer is 56 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 3: no idiot. I think he's really kind of upped his 57 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 3: game and he's realized that how can we grow this 58 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 3: economy with the impact and damage Briggs that has done, 59 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 3: we need the Chinese on board. 60 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: Now. 61 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: Is it actually true that Mo Farrah had his phone 62 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: and then chased the van down? 63 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 2: It is now. I know Mo and I've trained with him, 64 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: believe it or not. 65 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 3: I run with him a few times and he's always 66 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 3: messing around with his fitness watch, and so what he 67 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 3: was doing was he was in the street. He lives 68 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 3: in a private, gated community, as you would imagine, one 69 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 3: of the worlds as fast as people and hugely successful, 70 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 3: multi millionaire, double winning gold medalists would be and he 71 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 3: had his phone on the street and he was doing 72 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 3: his exercises directly outside his house and he's running along 73 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 3: and the van pulls in, sees the phone by the pavement, 74 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 3: and a guy jumps out, whips the phone and the 75 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: van drives off. But unfortunately for the van driver, he 76 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 3: got outsprinted by Molfara. Mofara caught up with them and 77 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 3: he's the most recognizable sports person in Britain and he 78 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,839 Speaker 3: stuck his head in the van window and said, keip 79 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,959 Speaker 3: me my phone back now. And of course they couldn't 80 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 3: get out of that. It's a gated community, so there 81 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 3: is an entrance code and CCTV cameras everywhere, and I 82 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 3: think the two idiots in the van thought, you know what, 83 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 3: this is not worth the hassle, so they give mo 84 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 3: Farall back his mobile. 85 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 1: Phone two right into geez is anybody in the world 86 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: you don't know.
