Former Conservative MP Steve Baker launched a scathing attack on David Lammy, branding him "the most ridiculous Foreign Secretary we've ever had" over his dramatic shift in stance towards Donald Trump.

David Lammy could not stop praising Donald Trump today, despite once being an especially vocal critic of the incoming US president. When he was a backbencher in 2018, Lammy called Trump a “woman-hating, neo-Nazi sympathising sociopath” and a “tyrant”.

The Foreign Secretary has attempted to woo Donald Trump before his inauguration as the next President of the United States.

The Foreign Secretary responded to reports that the Trump administration could reject the Labour grandee as ambassador to the US.

Sir Keir Starmer will visit Washington for talks with Donald Trump within weeks, the foreign secretary has suggested.

Grogan warned that during Trump’s first term in office there was “far too much negative rhetoric…coming out of the UK about Donald Trump”, instead of what he called “respectful engagement”. He urged Starmer to “flip the page on this and be more respectful of Donald Trump in his second term”.

The Foreign Secretary made the remarks as he updated MPs about the new 100-year partnership deal between the UK and Ukraine.
