>> well, that's the warning from the former brexit minister david jones, ahead of sir keir starmer jetting as part of his big relations reset. >> well, this is what he said in november when he was asked about the possibility of pursuing a renewed deal on post—brexit relations. >> it's been very clear that i don't think the deal that we've got with the eu is good enough, and that's why we are resetting that and looking for a better deal that and looking for a better deal, whether that's on security and defence, hugely important, but also on trade. >> so i think a lot of people are a bit worried that maybe we're cosying up to the wrong people because of post—brexit, also china. but more on that in also china. but more on that in a moment. let's get the thoughts of political commentator duncan barkes, who's with us in the studio. a very good morning to you. do you feel that keir starmer is doing his utmost to sort of reverse things? >> i think i do. so, you know, 17.4 million people voted leave back in 2016. we won't rehearse the arguments. i think we all still bear the scars. the optics of t

and i wonder if that keir starmer will be grateful that we did brexit because war has been declared,as been declared on the european union. we could be in declared on the europ

keir starmer's britain? a britain which seems unable to control its own borders? a britain that's called brexiteers. racist and thick since 2016. a britain that calls us far right if we complain about a lack of border control or a changing society in our country. yesterday, keir starmer said he was going to deploy soldiers to the front line soldiers, ostensibly from the white working classes. one of the most demonised demographics in all of the united kingdom. would you take up arms and fight for sir keir starmer's country? get in touch. that's today's big question. i've got three veterans on the show today and they have very, very different takes on this and you will not want to miss what they've got to say. what comes first, king and country or can politics get in the way of that? what would you do? would you fight for keir starmer? get in touch gbnews.com/yoursay. but now it's your headlines and here's katie bowman. >> martin. >> martin. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> and good afternoon. it's 3:03. these are your top stories from the gb newsroom. the us secretary of state marco rubio and. russia's

sir keir said he wants a reset in the relationship between the uk and its european neighbours, but britain will not be rejoining the eu. it's the first time since brexitt a british prime minister will attend a european council meeting. downing street says it represents sir keir�*s commitment to strengthening the uk's partnership with the eu. defence and security, including europe's response to russia's war in ukraine, are at the top of the agenda. let's speak now to security correspondent let's speak now to security co about 1dent let's speak now to security co about the it let's speak now to security co about the need to which talks about the need to destroy russia's war machine and take of the and take advantage of the economic sanctions on russia, to push on, let up, and to to push enrnotrletrup. and to ahead with to push unrnotrletrup, and to ahead with what downing press ahead with what downing says press eheed with whet downing saysis street'seys is effectively the street'seys ris' effectively the war on winning the economic war on russia and punishing for —:: of ukraineithere are number of factors a number of negative factors that are probably

brexit opportunity that we need to take. we started those negotiations when president trump was last in power. he is back again. the biden administration didn't want it, i think. keirtarmer needs to look at that. look at where the opportunities are. that's where the growth is going to be. >> liberal democrat leader sir ed davey criticised the conservative brexit deal as an utter disaster for our country. >> it's going to lead the debate in britain to have a closer relationship with our european colleagues. it's great for our trade, our economy, it's good for our defence and our security and a customs union, which i've called for the liberal democrats are championing would be great for growth, far better than anything the government has announced to date. we need to get rid of those trade barriers that the conservatives put up that the conservatives put up that have so hit our small and medium sized businesses, our exporters. that's the way to grow our economy by having that closer relationship with europe. and the white house, says the recovery operation for the air collision in washington, dc, has now resumed in the potomac river, in which a passenger plane collid

it is, as sir keir starmer is set to meet german chancellor olaf scholz tomorrow. he'll become the first prime minister since brexitattend dinner with eu leaders. lib dem leader ed davey is hoping he'll aim to bring the uk closer to the european bloc, arguing it will put rocket boosters on the uk economy and strengthen our hand against donald trump. but should we be focusing on our relationship with america rather than the eu? interesting debate. this one, isn't it? joining me now is former labour spokesman at james matthewson, james that reset i mean does starmer does a lot of resets doesn't he. so now we're resetting our relationship with the eu. what's going on here then. >> yeah you're absolutely right johni >> yeah you're absolutely right john i think the word reset is has probably been one of the most used in politics over the past six months. >> black hole. black hole. >> black hole. black hole. >> exactly. and i think reset is up there with the rest. but yeah this is this is what they're aiming to do. it's trying to really reset that relationship and take things back to basics and take things back to basics

i guess that sir keir really is a rejoiner at heart, and i fear that we're going to sort of head a little bit closer towards that brexit in name only, as long as it doesn't get too close, because if he does, it'll reduce our ability to be flexible with america. i'm joined in the studio by sir david davis mp. i'm joined by sir ranil jayawardena and joe just ordinary joe phillips. i'm very sorry about that. that's all right. david. you were heavily involved in the brexit negotiations for many years. what's going on? >> well, firstly there's a degree of labour naivety about this. they think of europe as a good thing. they're all intrinsically remainers. they're a couple of honourable exceptions, but the vast majority are intrinsically remainers. they'd love to be back in. and so they're going to be fairly weak willpower, shall we say, in this exercise, they'll get pressed. they'll get pressed on fishing rights. they'll get pressed on free movement, or at least free movement, or at least free movement for young people, which will grow. they'll get pressed on the european court of justice, because we'll get sucked in and su

keir starmer will finally understand that the eu is defunct? >> well, i mean, that's an interesting question because jeremy clarkson has just come out and said brexit makes him want to sit in a gutter and weep. i wonder if he'd say the same thing if he actually looked at what the eu are trying to do to farmers. goodness me. but we'll be answering all of your questions first. first of all, though, it's the saturday night news with sam francis. >> very good evening to you. it's just after 8:00. a recap of the breaking news we brought you in the last hour or so. that health minister andrew gwynne has now apologised after being sacked by sir keir starmer over what he described as badly misjudged whatsapp messages. the labour mp for gorton and denton is accused of insulting constituents and colleagues in a group chat, reportedly saying he hoped a 72 year old woman would soon be dead. gwynne says he understands the decision and will support. despite being suspended. the party says it's investigating and will take swift action if rules were breached. clashes have broken out between police and protesters today at a demonstration in london against plans for

keir starmer do in his infinite wisdom? well, he went off to brussels to meet with a load of eu bigwigs. so people like emmanuel macron can tell him how brexit has been a complete disaster. so despite the fact that starmer's cabinet called trump things like a neo—nazi, sympathising, woman hating, kkk aligned fascist and goodness knows what else, trump is willing to overlook all of that and by the sounds of it, treat us better than most nations. what does starmer do? goes to the eu with his begging bowl out, negotiating from a position of unbelievable weakness because they all know he's said stuff like this. >> already voted i think three times as a party for a second referendum with a three line whip behind it. and so i can tell you today, an incoming labour government will legislate for a referendum immediately on taking power and hold that referendum within six months. labour must support all options remaining on the table, including campaigning for a pubuc including campaigning for a public vote. that was our commitment. we would call for a general election if the deal didn't get through, but that if that didn't happen, the option of a pu
