Prime Minister Keir Starmer has spent months nurturing his relationship with President Trump. That may have just paid off.

Donald Trump and Keir Starmer celebrated their “historic” trade deal yesterday, promising it was a “great” agreement for both the US and the UK. The Labour government has been trying to get a deal with the White House for months.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Thursday secured a second trade pact in three days through a deal with U.S. President Donald Trump, claiming a much-needed political victory that removes a threat to some of the UK's must vulnerable industrial sectors.
