Trump has taken another swipe at Keir Starmer, this time in a phone interview with Sky News‘ Mark Stone. Even threatening to rip up the US-UK Economic Prosperity Deal agreed last year…
“It’s sad… and we gave them a good trade deal. Better than I had to. Which can always be changed…
“I love your country and I would love to see it succeed. But if you have bad immigration policies and bad energy policies, you have the worst of both. You can’t succeed, not possible.”
He added it was a “tragic mistake” not to drill in the North Sea. Meanwhile Reeves in DC for face-to-face talks with US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent just a day after attacking the “folly” of Trump’s actions in Iran. Good luck…
The day after Starmer U-turned and refused to blame Trump for the war Rachel Reeves told the Mirror:
“Obviously no sensible person is a supporter of the Iranian regime, but to start a conflict without being clear what the objectives are and not being clear about how you are going to get out of it, I do think that is a folly and it is one that is affecting families here in the UK but also families in the US and around the world.”
