Pump and pageantry is what we do 236 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 13: best here in the UK. And of course this is 237 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 13: a second unprecedented second state visit for Donald Trump. 238 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 14: You might remember his first one at Buckingham Palace. 239 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 13: They're all sat round for a state banquet and everyone's 240 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 13: in their finery. But only as they sat down did 241 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,959 Speaker 13: a tabloid newspaper break that he was critical of then 242 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 13: Prime Minister Theresa May a deeply embarrassing interview in digestion 243 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 13: for all. So there are lots of potential pitfulls again, 244 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 13: this time maybe on Palestine, maybe on Jeffrey Epstein. We've 245 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 13: just lost our UK ambassador to Washington over his links 246 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 13: to Jeffrey Epstein. On the agenda today, see the President, 247 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 13: the First Lady, Welcome to Windsor by the King and Queen. 248 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 13: They'll have a carriage procession through the grounds of the 249 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 13: estate with the Prince and Princess of Wales. Apparently the 250 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 13: President's taken a shine to Prince William. He said he 251 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 13: was very handsome when he met him in Paris last year, 252 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 13: and so the Palace is keen to deploy him once again. 253 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 14: Then they're going to have a private. 254 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 13: Lunch, they're going to lay a wreath at the tomb 255 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 13: of the late Queen Elizabeth, and then we're going to 256 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 13: have a flypass of UK and US F thirty five 257 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 13: jets along with the Red Arrows, so pulling out all 258 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 13: the stops. The hope, of course, is that all of 259 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 13: this soft power translates into hard cash for the UK. 260 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 4: Yeah, in terms of potentially softening the President to maybe 261 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,319 Speaker 4: make some concessions when it comes to trade. You've got 262 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 4: to think that for Prime Minister Cure Starmer, this trip 263 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 4: is going to be crucial. 264 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 14: It absolutely is, and it couldn't come at a worse 265 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 14: time for the British Prime Minister. 266 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 13: It has to be said, his party is floundering in 267 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 13: the polls behind notably Donald Trump's friend Nigel Farrar is 268 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,199 Speaker 13: the leader of Reform UK. He has his colleagues talking 269 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 13: about replacing him, but they just don't know who to 270 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 13: replace him with. Just this morning we had the UK 271 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 13: inflation numbers the highest again in a year and a half, 272 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 13: on a week of a Bank of England decision. And 273 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 13: really it's all coming to a head for kir Starmer 274 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 13: because just this past two weeks he's lost three from 275 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 13: his government, including as I say, Peter Mandelson, the UK 276 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 13: ambassador to Washington, but also the Deputy Prime Minister, also 277 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 13: his chief of strategy, and so it's going to give 278 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 13: Donald Trump leverage over Starmer. He will be very aware 279 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 13: of the weakness of the UK Prime Minister. 280 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 14: Right now, just. 281 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 4: Thirty seconds left, Lizzie. But we've heard about all the 282 00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 4: tech deals that have been made in the UK leading 283 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 4: up to this. 284 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,360 Speaker 2: What more is the UK hoping to get. 285 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 13: Yeh ten billion dollars of economic agreements expected in addition 286 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 13: to that US UK trade deal already, perhaps we could 287 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,640 Speaker 13: get more on AARI. We've already had the likes of 288 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 13: Google pledging money. 289 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 14: They're billions of pounds. 290 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 13: But look, when it comes to Steeal tariffs, it doesn't 291 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 13: look like Starma is going to get any better than 292 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 13: the twenty five percent already agreed, and it doesn't look 293 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 13: like there's much more to come on Scotch Whiskey Tariffs either. 294 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: This is Bloomberg Daybreak, your morning podcast on the stories 295 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 3: making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 296 00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 4: Look for us on your podcast feed by six am 297 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 4: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, or anywhere else you listen. 298 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 3: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 299 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 3: am Wall Street Time on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 300 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: in New York, Bloomberg in ninety nine to one in Washington, 301 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 3: Bloomberg ninety two nine in Boston, and nationwide on serious 302 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: XM Channel one twenty one. 303 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 4: Plus listen coast to coast on the Bloomberg Business app 304 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 4: now with Apple CarPlay and Android auto interfaces. 305 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 3: And don't forget to subscribe to Bloomberg News Now.
