Trump's Accusation of Foreign Interference: Donald Trump's campaign has accused the Labour Party in the UK of "blatant foreign interference" in the U.S. presidential election, following reports that British volunteers traveled to support Kamala Harris's campaign. The Trump campaign has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission seeking an investigation into these actions.
Labour's Response and Historical Context: Labour leader Keir Starmer defended the volunteers' actions as typical and stated they were participating in their own time. Historically, British political volunteers have supported U.S. elections, with Labour typically backing Democrats and Conservatives supporting Republicans.
