Sky News presenter Sir Trevor Phillips labelled the Labour government a pretty miserable bunch” during an interview with the Foreign Secretary.
The broadcaster challenged David Lammy over current pledges the new government has made since coming to power in July.
Speaking on his Sunday breakfast show today (15 September), Sir Trevor said: “You’re proposing a ban on advertising fast food, you’re banning smartphones for kids, you are promising 10 years of slog to repair the NHS.
“You personally are a cheerful chap but as a government, you are a pretty miserable bunch aren’t you?”
Mr Lammy smiled and replied: “You do this to get to the sunny uplands.”
