Keir Starmer met Donald Trump in Scotland today as he tries to gain the president's backing for ending tariffs on UK steel and the humanitarian crisis being perpetuated by Israel in Gaza.
The Prime Minister travelled to one of Trump's Scottish golf courses amid a backdrop of issues both foreign and domestic to take up with the erratic world leader.
Security is tight at Turnberry in Ayeshire where they are discussing how to continue putting into place the US-UK trade deal they signed earlier this year, as well as the Middle East crisis.
They met on the steps of the clubhouse while a bagpiper playing loudly in the background, with the president saying Sir Keir was going a 'great job'.
He also said he did not mind Sir Keir 'taking a position' on Palestinian statehood, though he said he would not do so himself.
