Londoner’s Diary
Comedian and talk show host James Corden is firmly back in Blighty after his long American sojourn. Last night he compered a DKMS charity gala at the Natural History Museum. “What an exciting time to be in Britain,” he said, “a snap election called yesterday. Can you feel the excitement in the room? Did you see Keir Starmer spoke directly to voters saying ‘the future of the country is in your hands?’ If you remember Brexit — it’s a terrifying thought,” he joked. “It could be worse. We could be facing an American election in November and thank god we’re not,” Corden went on. “Fun fact: there are actually dinosaurs in this museum that are younger than the two men currently vying to be president of the United States.” What a zinger.
