Exclusive: Nearly two-thirds of Labour voters say that with Donald Trump about to enter the White House, they back closer post-Brexit connections to Europe
Starmer warned not to cosy up to Trump as new poll shows Labour voters want closer EU ties instead
Sir Keir Starmer has been warned not to “cosy up to the White House” as a new poll shows nearly two in three Labour voters believe he should build closer economic and security ties to Europe as Donald Trump returns to power.
The same proportion of Labour voters, 67 per cent, say they are “worried” about the impact of Mr Trump’s presidency. The findings will pile pressure on Sir Keir to accelerate talks to improve UK-EU relations as the world braces for Mr Trump’s second term.
The Savanta poll, commissioned by the Liberal Democrats, also found nearly half of voters, 47 per cent, are concerned that Nigel Farage’s close ties with Mr Trump risk undermining the UK’s national interests.
