Keir Starmer has insisted that his relationship with Donald Trump has not been damaged, despite the campaign of the Republican presidential hopeful filing a complaint against Labour for election interference.
Donald Trump's presidential campaign complained Tuesday about the "far-left" Labour Party after workers travelled to the US to campaign for his Democrat rival, Kamala Harris, and senior officials met with her team.But Starmer said that the meetings and volunteering efforts for the vice-president were "straightforward".
The complaint also references a LinkedIn post made by Sofia Patel, head of operations at the Labour Party, which now appears to have been deleted, in which a Labour staff member appeared to have said there were "nearly 100 Labour Party staff going to the US in the next few weeks" to swing states. It is understood that trips have been organised in a personal capacity and accommodation has been arranged by volunteers for the Democrats.
