House speaker makes remarks at Chatham House seminar in London a day after meeting Boris Johnson
Nancy Pelosi, House speaker of the US Congress, has likened the 6 January insurrection fomented by Donald Trump to 9/11, saying one had been an assault on US democracy from within and the other from the outside.
She also claimed the Republicans had been hijacked by a cult that believed neither in science or government, making it hard for the US to be governed.
