Kim Darroch (former Ambassador to the US) in an Observer piece not yet online makes the simple but powerful diplomatic point, that looking at Trump's record in office, he respects strong leaders not those that seek to accommodate him.... thus, Darroch's lesson for Keir Starmer is stick to positions on international & trade affairs, don't seek to accommodate Tump's demands... as all he will then do is demand more.
Its simple advice but right on the button.
