Sir Keir Starmer and Donald Trump have finalised the UK-US trade deal at the G7 summit.

The US president told reporters in Canada: “We signed it, and it’s done. It’s a fair deal for both. It’ll produce a lot of jobs, a lot of income.”

Sir Keir said the document implements the deal to cut tariffs on cars and aerospace, describing it as a “really important agreement”.

“So this is a very good day for both of our countries – a real sign of strength,” the prime minister added.

Mr Trump added that the UK was “very well protected” against any future tariffs – “You know why? Because I like them”.

However, he did not say whether levies on British steel exports to the US would be set to 0%, saying “we’re gonna let you have that information in a little while”.

Mr Trump also praised Sir Keir as a “great” prime minister, adding: “He’s done what other people… we’ve been talking about this deal for six years, and he’s done what they haven’t been able to do.”

He added: “We’re very longtime partners and allies and friends and we’ve become friends in a short period of time.

“He’s slightly more liberal than me to put it mildly… but we get along.”

Sir Keir added that “we make it work”.

Earlier, Sir Keir said he would meet Mr Trump for “one-on-one” talks to get the US-UK trade deal completed after it was agreed in May.

He added the agreement “really matters for the vital sectors that are safeguarded under our deal, and we’ve got to implement that”.
