It was a wide-ranging and lengthy press conference between Donald Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Trump’s luxury golf resort in Turnberry, Scotland. But what new things did we learn? Could anything sour their relationship? And how clean is Trump’s golf game?
Also, the questions keep flying in about the Epstein files. The President has again denied that he'd been told his name appeared in them.
Justin, Sarah and Anthony join 5 Live’s Matt Chorley to discuss all this and more.
