Publicado 2024-07-11
Sky News Digital Presenter Gabriella Power has reacted to “one of the most awkward moments” between two leaders.

US President Joe Biden and new UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer held talks in the Oval Office.

Mr Starmer gave a delayed response to President Biden’s outreached hand for a handshake when they fronted the media.

“I don’t understand because aren’t those moments rehearsed,” Ms Power said.

“It’s just so uncomfortable.

    First action i saw from uk's new guy starmer was letting prisoners out of jail after 40% of time served. They just let out a sex offender who is a foreigner. Not even deporting him l. Starmer is 0 for 1 in my book so far.

    Stamer has no political prowess, no charisma, poor judgment.

    I’m sick of this celebrities, they supporting criminals! They own homes tens of millions, flying with private jets private security, but what about people can afford to buy house, who can’t afford to buy food, they don’t care

  • @markw8353
    Starmer is out of his depth on the world stage. Too many people out there know his real character.....

    What the hell? Starmer scoffs when Biden says welcome and then stares at Biden hand. Just weird.

    “…how would you argue it’s not her?…” Harris is woefully incompetent.
  • @robertaddy3617

    If the little green men are looking down on our beautiful blue planet, I wonder if they are wondering how, out of the entire selection of humans, these specimens are the best we can come up with?
  • @EdwardTrusky
    I have a feeling that very soon we'll hear that president Biden has passed away in his sleep 🎉
  • The question then is who will Harris choose as her running mate? Dylan Mulvany?
  • @bigbear5891
    Its easy to make him withdraw, just tell him he's already served 2 terms..
  • @geraldbrookes3666
    So why did Starmer meet Trump just a few weeks ago,keeping a foot in both camps !!
  • @Luton-Mick
    Starmer didn't know if the potato was reaching for his hand or JFK's.
