LABOUR accused Donald Trump ytoday of having a “passing relationship with reality and the truth,” after the US president made an unconvincing U-turn on the NHS.
Speaking at a rally in Birmingham, shadow chancellor John McDonnell said “all the evidence” points to the health service being on the table in trade talks with Washington.
He challenged bizarre comments made by Mr Trump on Tuesday, when he insisted that his country wouldn’t want the NHS “even if it was served on a silver platter.”
