Donald Trump will privately take “pleasure and delight” in seeing Sir Keir Starmer forced out as UK Prime Minister, experts have told The i Paper.
The US President has long viewed the Labour leader as a “globalist bureaucrat” and is already looking ahead to who will be his replacement, after last week’s local elections became the latest setback for the struggling British leader.
The scathing analysis comes after nearly 100 Labour MPs turned on the Prime Minister. Starmer has so far refused to step aside, but he could soon face a challenge after Wes Streeting resigned as Health Secretary on Thursday and Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham announced his bid to return to Westminster.

Trump sees Starmer as a “wooden, left-wing human rights barrister”, according to experts, and will not rue his political demise. If Starmer goes, Trump is likely to cast his departure as a failure to adhere to the Maga agenda of being tough on immigration and opening up the North Sea for drilling, they said.
