As PM-in-waiting Andy Burnham mulls over his options for cabinet, Simon Marks considers who has what it takes to take on European heavyweights and maintain the US-UK 'special relationship'. Listener Tony suggest Keir Starmer himself has the qualifications to step into the role of Foreign Secretary... but points out he might not be 'so keen' to take it on under a Burnham administration. Simon and Republican Overseas chairman Greg Swenson also discuss whether past tweets from Andy Burnham about President Trump will put a strain on their relationship before it even begins.
