Sir Keir Starmer will hold an emergency press conference on Britain’s response to Donald Trump’s latest tariff threats, after warning the US president in a Sunday night phone call that the move was “wrong”.
Mr Trump announced on Saturday that the UK would be among eight countries charged a 10 per cent tariff “on any and all goods” sent to the US from February 1, increased to 25 per cent from June 1, until a deal is reached for Washington to purchase Greenland from Denmark.
