About this episode
Today, Adam dusts off his Brexitcast binders as we look at Keir Starmer’s trip to Berlin and his meeting with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.
Adam chats to Henry about travelling with the prime minister, and what’s in his proposed treaty with Scholz, as well as the snacks he’s been enjoying on the plane. What does Keir Starmer mean when he says ‘reset’? And will a charm offensive with other European leaders follow?
And, BBC Europe Editor Katya Adler and Anand Menon, Director of UK in a Changing Europe, discuss Starmer’s relationship with European leaders, and how likely the EU is to negotiate with the UK.
