Trump criticises Corbyn as Labour launches election campaign

Political Editor

Far from staying out of other countries’ politics, President Trump weighed into the UK’s 2019 election campaign today declaring that Jeremy Corbyn would be “so bad” for the country. He also urged Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson to get together as an “unstoppable force”.

But he also criticised Mr Johnson’s Brexit deal, suggesting the US couldn’t make a trade agreement with the UK. All this on the very day Britain was supposed to be coming out of the EU.
