Keir Starmer and Donald Trump dine for 2 hours – POLITICO

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer held a two-hour dinner with U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump in the first face-to-face meeting between the pair.

The Labour leader and former president dined at Trump Tower in New York on Thursday night (early Friday morning in London) after Starmer delivered a speech at the U.N. General Assembly.

The two men discussed the “longstanding friendship between the United Kingdom and the United States and the importance of continuing to develop the strong and enduring partnership between our two countries,” according to a U.K. government readout.
