Sir Keir Starmer was hit with a brutal rejection by President Donald Trump as the Prime Minister failed to bid for Britain to be excluded from new tariffs.
It comes as the US State Department issued a statement saying it was "concerned about freedom of expression in the United Kingdom" with a source telling The Telegraph there should be "no free trade without free speech".

Tossici-Bolt's case is set to return its verdict on Friday, with the US State Department saying it was "monitoring" the situation.
