- A senior Labour MP, Dame Emily Thornberry, has joined calls to delay King Charles’ rumoured visit to the US next month.
- Concerns have been raised that the proposed visit could be overshadowed by worsening relations between the UK and Donald Trump’s administration.
- Donald Trump recently criticised Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, expressing unhappiness with his response to the Middle East conflict.
- Dame Emily suggested delaying the trip to avoid it taking place 'against the backdrop of a war' and to prevent embarrassment for the King and Queen.
- Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey also previously urged the visit's cancellation, arguing Donald Trump should not receive a 'huge diplomatic coup'.
