Contributing sentiments towards policy:

81% : In public, Downing Street insists Keir Starmer has a good relationship with Donald Trump.
57% : He does value international bodies like the UN and Nato.
54% : True, Starmer wants closer links with the EU to boost UK growth, but he does not want to rejoin the bloc, as Farage and the Conservatives claim.
54% : But that doesn't mean he can't adapt to the new world order Trump is ushering in.
48% : The PM wants a trade deal with the US based on services - no contradiction with his aim to reduce trade friction on goods moving to and from the EU.
44% : Trump should judge Starmer on what he says when the two leaders meet and on what he does.
39% : The proposed deal to hand the Chagos Islands to Mauritius, which Trump might block, is seen in Trumpworld as anti-imperialist - even though Labour points out the previous Conservative government began the negotiations.
28% : The irony is that Starmer's key priority is to improve the lives of the very same "working people" Trump lured away from the Democrats to regain power.
27% : They worry that Trump views Starmer as a big-state socialist, wedded to the old order of the EU and multilateral institutions rather than the nation state, and someone who supports a "woke", progressive ideology.
25% : Evidence, it seems, that Trump had forgiven Lammy for once calling him a "woman-hating neo-Nazi sociopath".
