Biden backs Starmer’s bid to renegotiate Brexit.

US President Joe Biden has backed Keir Starmer’s ambitions to take the UK back closer to the European Union. The president, who has been a critic of Brexit and the UK’s departure from the EU, made it clear he values the special relationship but only as a “knot” tying together the US and Europe. He made his comments as Sir Keir had his first audience with the president in the Oval Office since winning the election last week.
