US President Donald Trump has said Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has done a "very good job thus far" and that the pair have a "very good relationship". Asked by the BBC on board Air Force One about his relationship with Sir Keir, Trump added that they would be having a call "over the next 24 hours" - a conversation which has since taken place.

Sir Keir Starmer has suffered a fresh blow as a major new survey reveals just one in 10 think he is doing a good job. Voters are deserting Labour with those who backed the party at the last election suffering “buyer’s remorse”.

Donald Trump is expected to visit the UK “soon” after Sir Keir Starmer became the first European leader to speak to the president since his inauguration.
