Sir Keir Starmer was cock-a-hoop when he left the White House on Thursday following a meeting with President Trump that had gone better than any of his team dared hope.

Within hours , triumph had turned to trepidation as Starmer ’s team digested with horror the footage of Trump and his vice-president, JD Vance , publicly dressing down President Zelensky of Ukraine .

Starmer theatrically whipped out a letter from the King inviting Trump for a second state visit.

Starmer ’s claim that this was “truly historic and unprecedented” was a carefully choreographed echo of Trump -speak.

The PM and the president both talked about their love of the late Queen.

Starmer and Zelensky were supposed to meet for just 15 minutes in the margins of Sunday ’s summit.

But the PM ordered on Saturday that Downing Street “put out the full red carpet” to show support.

Boris Johnson had written a column for the Daily Mail based on the assumption that the deal would be signed on Friday to let US companies extract rare minerals from Ukraine .
