Starmer insists he can have a ‘good relationship’ with Trump despite election ‘interference’ claim

After Trump campaign complaint, PM says Labour officials volunteering for Harris were ‘doing it in their spare time’ rather than in their official capacity

Keir Starmer has insisted he can maintain a “good relationship” with Donald Trump after the Republican candidate’s campaign accused Labour of “blatant foreign interference” in the US election.

The Trump campaign filed a legal complaint overnight against Labour officials travelling to US battleground states to volunteer for his Democrat rival Kamala Harris.
