The US election has been and gone and Donald Trump emerged victorious, with the former president set to re-enter the White House. The government sent Pat McFadden onto the airwaves today to field questions about the new president-elect – but the Labour MP became rather curiously tongue-tied on the matter of Trump’s politics…
Quizzed by LBC’s Nick Ferrari this morning, McFadden was asked whether he believes Trump has ‘KKK sympathies or Nazi sympathies’.
PM: I think the relationship between Britain and America is really important and I’m confident…
NF: That wasn’t the question though was it, Pat?
PM: No I know.
