Donald Trump urges Keir Starmer to 'straighten out your country' as he slams London for 'having a lot of problems'
Trump tells Starmer to straighten Britain after criticizing the Chagos Islands deal
On 21 January 2026, former U.S. President Donald Trump posted a GB News clip urging British Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer to 'straighten out your country'. Trump accused Starmer of mishandling Britain’s international stance, citing the Labour government’s Chagos Islands deal as 'great stupidity' and saying London has ‘a lot of problems’. The comment arrived amid rising criticism of the UK's recent move to leave the United Nations Human Rights Council, and Trump’s remarks have sparked calls from UK politicians for an official response. Starmer’s cabinet is scheduled to review the Chagos arrangement in March, while Britain’s Prime Minister Rishi Singh has pledged to keep the UK’s foreign policy independent of extremist agendas.
