Donald Trump finally made it to Davos, three hours late.
After a flashing-light emergency on Air Force One, Mr Trump used the World Economic Forum platform to unload on Europe, the UK and pretty much anyone else in range.
Marking a year since his inauguration, the US president mocked green energy, accused Britain of crippling itself by refusing to drill the North Sea, and claimed Europe has “destroyed itself”. Back home, Sir Keir Starmer showed unexpected steel at PMQs, saying he will not yield to Mr Trump’s pressure on Greenland.
Camilla and Tim unpack Mr Trump’s freewheeling Davos speech, from his fresh push to “acquire” Greenland (while confusing it with Iceland), to digs at Emmanuel Macron’s sunglasses, Canada’s “freebies”, and a promise to build a “golden dome” to protect North America. We ask what all of this tells us about the new world order.
