Alex KeenanHOST
He has indeed U-turned on his own thing.
Alex KeenanHOST
Although actually something came out about the U-turns over the summer.
Alex KeenanHOST
You mentioned that some of Starmer's U-turns, as it transpires, were on the back of government advice.
Alex KeenanHOST
Oh
Dan ElkingtonHOST
yes, this was in the FT the other day.
David BoyleHOST
I'm piecing it together because the roads are so fucking confusing here.
David BoyleHOST
There's one ways, there's U-turns, there's fucking...
David BoyleHOST
I'm on the wrong side of the road.
David BoyleHOST
But I'm slowly building a map of the territory in my mind and it's good to have a map.
L.D. CarterGUEST
that if you hurry up and get to, your crew will enjoy.
L.D. CarterGUEST
We did U-turns and went directly
Patrick ThompsonHOST
to
L.D. CarterGUEST
that.
Michael NielsonGUEST
I'm a rookie.
Michael NielsonGUEST
And he's like, cool, practice your U-turns.
Michael NielsonGUEST
Practice them in the dark.
Michael NielsonGUEST
Practice them in the rain.
Michael NielsonGUEST
Practice them on gravel.
Michael NielsonGUEST
Practice them at night in the rain on gravel.
Michael NielsonGUEST
You're going to make more U-turns in three weeks than you've made in your whole life.
Michael NielsonGUEST
It was his first piece of advice.
Alan CoxHOST
Yeah.
Alan CoxHOST
And then you're going to want to hang a Yui around the parking lot there at Bonnie and Clyde's Adult Emporium.
Rob AnthonyHOST
And if you get to Juggies, you've gone too far.
Alan CoxHOST
Mm-hmm.
CrashHOST
Yeah.
CrashHOST
And we love U-turns in this city.
CrashHOST
If we can do a U-turn on that bridge, we would.
CrashHOST
I
CrashHOST
like you did this? I witnessed it.
CrashHOST
Some of them are not good.
CrashHOST
Are we allowed to do U-turns in town?
MarsHOST
I think so.
Keir StarmerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
and being the best dad I can to my beautiful children, who are my pride and my joy.
Natasha ClarkCORRESPONDENT
And Nick, we've talked about Sir Keir Starmer's U-turns over the years, haven't we? Just a few weeks later, he gave us his final one.
Natasha ClarkCORRESPONDENT
In an interview with the BBC, he said he would be, in fact, staying as an MP for the remainder of this Parliament.
Keir StarmerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And you're going to stay as an MP? I'm going to stay as an MP.

Nick FerrariHOST
The Island of Strangers, that's Starmer's legacy.
Nick FerrariHOST
Do you remember that? That was ill-advised, wasn't it? Kevin in Harlow.
Nick FerrariHOST
I'll remember Keir Starmer as the man who did more U-turns than a lost Uber driver.
Nick FerrariHOST
That is devastating.
Iain DaleHOST
Do you buy all of the hope and optimism that Andy Burnham is transmitting? Do you think that he can live up to that promise that he is going to lead us into the sunlit uplands? Or do you think, actually, we already know after six weeks, he's backtracked on so much, this is just more of the same.
Iain DaleHOST
Keir Starmer was known for U-turns And Andy Burnham is already showing signs of the same.
Iain DaleHOST
0345 6060 973.
Iain DaleHOST
And if you want to pick out any of the different subjects that he talked about this afternoon, prisoner releases, climate change, we've got the climate change minister with us.

Katie WhiteGUEST
Places are different.
Katie WhiteGUEST
And I certainly know that some of the conversations I've had in London don't translate as well to the streets of Leeds.
Iain DaleHOST
But you know as well as I do that many of your colleagues, particularly on the back benches, were very unhappy with the U-turns that the Starmer government made in all sorts of different areas, or at least the way they were conducted.
Iain DaleHOST
And, I mean, if we take the issue of prisoner release, for example, I mean, Andy Burnham, as Kimmy Bader not pointed out, has had five different positions on that since he's been Prime Minister.
Joe GigantiHOST
You know why? Because if you can't speak it, you probably can't read the signs either.
Joe GigantiHOST
So, you know, you make U-turns illegally on major highways and you kill people.
Joe GigantiHOST
Go on.
Joe GigantiHOST
Here's Sean Duffy telling you the action they're taking.
