Trump Claims UK Labour is Intruding as US Campaigns Heat Up

Trump Alleges UK Labour of Meddling as US Campaigns Heat Up

As the U.S. presidential election approaches, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump intensify their campaigns. Both candidates remain in a close race. Harris leads with 46% support, while Trump holds 43%, according to recent polls. Voters focus on issues like the economy and immigration. Trump’s policies still resonate with many, despite Harris’s slight lead. Both candidates work hard to sway undecided voters.

Trump accused the UK’s Labour Party of “foreign interference.” His team filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission. They claim nearly 100 Labour volunteers traveled to support Harris’s campaign. The complaint suggests this could involve illegal contributions. It cites a now-deleted LinkedIn post by a Labour official.

Labour Party leader Keir Starmer rejected these claims. He explained that volunteers worked in their free time. British political volunteers have supported U.S. elections before. Labour usually backs Democrats, while Conservatives support Republicans. Starmer believes this will not harm relations with Trump if he wins.

Trump’s allies downplayed the accusations. Greg Swenson of Republican Overseas UK said Trump may take it personally, but long-term relations with the UK should remain unaffected. As election day nears, both Harris and Trump push to win voters, with concerns about the country’s future growing. (Courtesy of Reuters)
