Labour have been doing their best to downplay reports about the difficulties that like ahead of Sir Keir Starmer - but it's clearly going to be an uphill battle for the PM to forge a productive relationship with the incoming US president.

The article from Sky News discusses the potential challenges that UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer might face in dealing with Donald Trump if he wins the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Key issues include Trump's previous strained relationship with the UK, particularly his criticism of NATO and his comments on Brexit. Trump's transactional approach to international relations could complicate the UK's efforts to secure a favorable trade deal post-Brexit. Additionally, Trump's skepticism towards climate change initiatives might clash with Starmer's environmental commitments. There's also the matter of Trump's personal style, which could lead to diplomatic tensions, especially given his past interactions with UK leaders. Furthermore, Trump's policies on Iran, China, and his general unpredictability could disrupt established alliances and trade relations. The article suggests that Starmer would need to navigate these challenges carefully, balancing the UK's interests with the need to maintain a strong transatlantic relationship.
