Donald Trump’s lawyers have submitted a formal complaint against the British to the electoral commission in Washington. They believe that the British Labor Party, which holds government power in Great Britain, is illegally interfering in the American election. US vacancies announced The complaint comes after Labour’s chief operating officer Sofia Patel announced “ten vacancies” to travel to the swing state of North Carolina to campaign for Kamala Harris there. She also wrote that there are around 100 current and former Labor employees on their way to the US to campaign for the Democrats. – We will fix their housing problems, she wrote in the LinkedIn post, which was later removed. In 2020, British politician Nigel Farage campaigned for Donald Trump. Now the Reform MP tells GB News that he believes Labor is breaking the American Electoral Act.

But there is a requirement that the volunteer spend no more than $1,000 on the business. Labor rejects “foreign interference” Labor insists that the party has not paid for the party employees’ travel and accommodation. But it is not clear who paid, according to the BBC. – Those looking for foreign interference in the election need look no further than the LindedIn post, says the complaint from the Trump campaign’s lawyer Gary Lawkowski. – The intervention takes place in an open loin. Lawkowski demands an immediate investigation. The British Prime Minister maintains that he has established a good relationship with Trump. He claims that the Labor representatives travel to the US on a voluntary basis and not on behalf of the party. Crisis for “The special relationship” Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently met Donald Trump in New York to strengthen the relationship with the former president, who is seeking re-election on 5 November. Starmer then emphasized that the British will cooperate with whoever is elected as the 47th president of the United States, no matter who it is. He has not yet met Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, but has met Biden several times. Keir Starmer has met President Joe Biden several times.

The “volunteer” will be tested legally – Volunteers from Labor have traveled to the United States in virtually every election, Starmer told reporters on board the plane on his way to Samoa on Wednesday night, where he will attend the summit of the Commonwealth of Nations. – This is something they do in their spare time as volunteers. They live with American activists. That is what they have done in previous elections and that is what they are doing in this election. It’s very simple, says Keir Starmer. In rough weather: Keir Starmer became British Prime Minister in July this year. Now the sea is rough for the British relationship with presidential candidate Trump.

Whether the electoral commission will manage to do so before the election on 5 November is uncertain. Published 23.10.2024, at 12.32 Updated 23.10.2024, at 12.43
