Kemi Badenoch presses Keir Starmer on Donald Trump’s historic US presidential election win and the Budget in her first PMQs as Tory party leader.
They both congratulate the president-elect, and Badenoch presses Starmer on whether his Foreign Secretary David Lammy will apologise for comments he previously made about Trump – the PM says the pair had a “constructive meeting” a month ago.
She then asks if he will continue trade talks with the Trump administration – Starmer responds that he will “discuss issues of our economy” with the president-elect.
Badenoch then moves on to last week’s Budget, focusing on farmers and hitting out at the “cruel family farms tax”.
The PM says the Budget is about fixing the economy and plugging the “£22bn black hole”
