Starmer has a passion for Beethoven piano sonatas and Shostakovich; Trump plays DJ at his Mar-a-Lago estate with offerings such as Elvis Presley’s Suspicious Minds, Hello by Lionel Ritchie, Guns N’ Roses’ November Rain and James Brown and Luciano Pavarotti’s It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World.

At times he stood his ground, interrupting Trump to correct his false claim that European countries “get their money back” from Ukraine: “Mainly it was gifted, actually,” Starmer said.
