The White House tête-à-tête between Sir Keir Starmer and Donald Trump had carried real political jeopardy.

UK officials admitted beforehand that unpredictability reigned.

But so smiles were beaming on No 10 faces after Mr Trump backed the Chagos deal and floated a tariff exemption for Britain .

Labour leader is a man not of hidden depths but hidden shallows, a working-class lad whose ideal Saturday is a pint in the pub with his mates before watching the Arsenal match.

British officials believe he can schmooze the US president without resorting to the French theatrics of Emmanuel Macron .

Since that first meeting, there has been a call to congratulate Mr Trump after he beat Kamala Harris .

Sir Keir at least three times gripped Mr Trump ’s shoulder or forearm to make points.

The get-close-and-keep-schtum strategy had come good. Uncertainty had been replaced with back slaps.

Trump was just as jolly in the press conference that brought proceedings to a close.
