Labour government would ‘have to make it work’ if Trump wins, says Keir Starmer

Leader of the opposition quizzed by BBC's Nick Robinson on what he intends to do if he becomes prime minister

A future Labour government would have to make it work" if Donald Trump succeeds in winning the next US general election, Keir Starmer has said.

The disgraced former president is bidding to return to the White House next year despite the long list of criminal and civil lawsuits against him, and could thus be in power at the same time as Starmer, who would become the first Labour prime minister since 2010 if his party wins the next general election.
