Watch: PM says he understands what President Trump cares about
Sir Keir Starmer has said he "understands what anchors" US President Donald Trump, having built a relationship on shared family values.
Despite "different political backgrounds" the prime minister said he found common ground with Trump, and that their "good personal relationship" helped land a vital US tariff deal.
Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Political Thinking programme, Sir Keir revealed Trump reached out to console him after the death of his younger brother Nick Starmer on Boxing Day.
"For both of us, we really care about family and there's a point of connection there," he said.
"I think I do understand what anchors the president, what he really cares about."
"That was a phone call really to ask him how it was, and in particular I wanted to know how it impacted on his family," he said.
He added that Trump later called him after the death of his brother.
"We talked about my brother, and he was asking about him," Sir Keir said.
Sir Keir denied this week's painful series of U-turns on welfare reforms were because he had been too focused on foreign affairs and "taken his eye off the ball" domestically.
On Tuesday, the government avoided defeat on its proposals to overhaul disability benefits by offering late concessions to Labour MPs threatening to rebel.
The prime minister said he took responsibility for the episode, admitting it had been a "tough" few days but insisting the government would "come through this stronger" after a period of reflection.
The prime minister said forging close ties with figures such as Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron were "always in the national interest".
"Building those relationships with international leaders is hugely important," he said.
The prime minister said the personal rapport had helped secure a deal removing UK industries from some of the sweeping tariffs announced by Trump.
Before the deal he said he had seen "anxiety writ large" on the faces of British factory workers at Jaguar Land Rover in Solihull.
"After the deal, the relief was palpable," he said.
Sir Keir said discussions "over a glass of wine" with Macron on a train to Kyiv had also paved the way for a new agreement with the EU, which he claimed would lead to lower food prices in British supermarkets.
"That is a good thing for millions of people across the country," he said.
Sir Keir is due to meet Macron again next week as the French president comes to the UK for a state visit.
Tackling small boat crossings will be a key point of discussion, after Downing Street said last month the situation in the English Channel was "deteriorating".
Official figures released this week showed nearly 20,000 people arrived in the UK in the first half of this year by crossing the Channel in small boats - up 48% on the same period last year.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have been romantically linked since 2016
Pop star Katy Perry and actor Orlando Bloom have officially confirmed they have split, US media outlets say, six years after getting engaged.
The couple have been romantically linked since 2016 and have a four-year-old daughter.
A joint statement said "representatives have confirmed that Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting," according to outlets including People magazine and USA Today.
"They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is - and always will be - raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect."
The statement was being released due to the "abundance of recent interest and conversation" surrounding their relationship, it added.
The pop star, 40, and the 48-year-old actor split in 2017 but got back together shortly afterwards. They got engaged on Valentine's Day in 2019.
A year later Perry revealed she was pregnant in the music video for her single Never Worn White.
Their daughter Daisy Dove was born later that year, with Unicef announcing the news on its Instagram account. Both Perry and Bloom are goodwill ambassadors for the United Nations agency that helps children.
US singer Perry, who was previously married to Russell Brand, shot to fame in 2008 with the single I Kissed A Girl, which reached number one in the UK.
Her hits since then have included Roar, California Gurls, Firework and Never Really Over.
Bloom was previously married to Australian model Miranda Kerr, and they have a son, 14-year-old Flynn.
The British actor has starred in Pirates Of The Caribbean, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.
Women and children were said to have been killed in an Israeli strike on a tent in southern Gaza
At least 69 people have been killed by Israeli fire across Gaza on Thursday, rescuers say, as Israel intensified its bombardment of the Palestinian territory.
One air strike killed 15 people at a school-turned-shelter for displaced families in Gaza City, according to the Hamas-run Civil Defence agency. The Israeli military said it targeted a "key" Hamas operative based there.
The Civil Defence also reported that 38 people were killed while queueing for aid, or on their way to pick it up. The military said such reports of extensive casualties were "lies".
It comes as pressure mounts on both Israel and Hamas to agree to a new ceasefire and hostage release deal being pushed by US President Donald Trump.
Trump announced on Tuesday that Israel had agreed to the "necessary conditions" to finalize a 60-day ceasefire. However, there are still obstacles that could prevent a quick agreement.
Hamas has said it is studying the proposals - the details of which have still not been made public - but that it still wants an end to the war and an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who will travel to Washington on Monday, has meanwhile insisted that the Palestinian armed group must be eliminated.
On Thursday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said its aircraft had struck around 150 "terror targets" across Gaza over the previous 24 hours, including fighters, tunnels and weapons.
Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry said 118 people had been killed during the same period.
Fifteen people, most of them women and children, were killed when a school housing displaced families in the al-Rimal neighbourhood of Gaza City was struck before dawn on Thursday, the Hamas-run Civil Defence agency and medics said.
Witness Wafaa al-Arqan told Reuters news agency: "Suddenly, we found the tent collapsing over us and a fire burning... What can we do? Is it fair that all these children burned?"
The IDF said it struck a "key Hamas terrorist" who was operating in a "command-and-control centre" in Gaza City, without mentioning the school.
The IDF added that it took numerous steps to mitigate the risk of harming civilians and accused Hamas of using human shields - an allegation the group has repeatedly denied.
At least another five displaced people were reportedly killed when a tent was struck overnight in the southern al-Mawasi area, where the IDF has told residents of areas affected by its evacuation orders to head for their own safety.
Ashraf Abu Shaba, who lived in a neighbouring tent, said he saw the bodies of children and women wrapped in blankets afterwards.
"The occupation [Israel] claims there are safe zones, but there are no safe zones. Every place is a target... The situation is unbearable," he added.
Later, Civil Defence spokesman Mahmoud Bassal told AFP news agency that another 38 people were killed by Israeli forces while seeking aid.
He said 25 were killed near the Israeli military's Netzarim corridor in central Gaza. Six died at another location nearby, while seven were killed in the southern Rafah area, he added.
Medics at Nasser hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis separately told Reuters that at least 20 people were killed while making their way to an aid distribution centre.
There was no direct response to the reports from the IDF.

Last week, the IDF said it was examining reports of civilians being harmed while approaching sites in southern and central Gaza run by the US- and Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF).
On Thursday, IDF spokesman Brig-Gen Effie Defrin acknowledged at a briefing that Israeli forces were facing a "complex challenge" and drawing "lessons from every incident to prevent similar cases in the future".
But he declared: "The reports of allegations of extensive casualties in the aid distribution centres are lies."
There have been reports of deadly incidents near the distribution sites almost every day since the GHF began operating on 26 May.
According to Gaza's health ministry, at least 408 people have been killed near GHF centres over the past five weeks. Another 175 people have been killed seeking aid elsewhere, including along routes used by UN aid convoys, it says.
The GHF, which uses US private security contractors, said "distribution at all sites ran smoothly" on Thursday and that it had now handed out more than one million boxes of food.
The GHF also rejected as "categorically false" allegations from a former security contractor, who told the BBC that he witnessed colleagues opening fire on civilians waiting for aid.
The UN and other aid groups refuse to co-operate with the GHF, saying its new system contravenes fundamental humanitarian principles.
The US and Israel say the GHF's system will prevent aid being stolen by Hamas.
The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza in response to Hamas's 7 October 2023 attack on Israel, in which about 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage.
At least 57,130 people have been killed in Gaza since then, according to the territory's health ministry.
'Still holes in my game' - Draper on Wimbledon exit

'Why's he standing so far back?' - McEnroe's notes for Draper
Published
British number one Jack Draper says he was not "good enough" in a shock Wimbledon second-round exit, insisting a below-par performance was not because he felt increased pressure at this year's tournament.
Draper was seeded fourth at the All England Club, but lost 6-4 6-3 1-6 6-4 to 36-year-old Marin Cilic.
The 23-year-old was the highest seeded home player since Andy Murray defended the men's title in 2017.
In 2013, Murray, who retired last year, was the first British man to win Wimbledon in 77 years and added his second title three years later.
"It makes me think that Andy's achievement of what he did - winning here twice - [was] just unbelievable," Draper said.
"It's not the pressure. I wasn't going out there thinking I was under so much pressure. You [journalists] mention it all the time.
"I just didn't play good enough. I lost to a better player. That's the main reason. I just was not able to find the level I wanted. I came up short."
A stunning rise over the past year put Draper in the position of being a genuine Wimbledon contender.
In the space of a year, the Englishman has reached the US Open semi-finals, clinched the prestigious Indian Wells title and reached two other ATP Tour finals.
Having won a title on the Stuttgart grass last year, and reaching the Queen's semi-finals last month despite feeling unwell, many experts felt his game could translate on to the Wimbledon grass.
"I've been really disappointed with the way my game's been on the grass this year, in all honesty," Draper said.
"I really struggled on the grass. I felt great on the hard courts, felt great on the clay.
"I felt there weren't many holes in my game. As soon as I came on to the grass, I felt a big difference."

'The older man making new memories' - Draper falls to veteran Cilic
The left-hander's serve and forehand were highlighted as the key weapons, but he was pushed deep in the court by 2017 runner-up Cilic and saw his game neutralised as the veteran rolled back the years.
"I think the hole in my forehand showed up, for sure," Draper said.
"I wasn't able to deal with his pace of ball into my forehand. I was over-spinning a lot.
"I think a lot of my success this year with my forehand, when I have more time, it's a lot easier for me because I can create the speed and the spin that I want, and the effectiveness of that.
"My movement could have been better. There's many areas of my game which I still really, really need to work on to be the player I want to be."

Cilic 'took all of Draper's weapons away' - Woodbridge analysis
Todd Woodbridge, 1997 Wimbledon singles semi-finalist and nine-time doubles champion, on BBC TV
I didn't think there were any nerves from Jack Draper, I thought he handled himself well.
I just thought the match-up didn't go so well for him. It was an awkward match-up because the left-handed serve got into the beautiful ball-striking return of Cilic.
Cilic then got the ball back in deep and he was able to dictate with his forehand. He took all of Draper's weapons away and he [Draper] never really got the chance to dictate play on his terms.
If you were to go over all the stats, Draper didn't return well enough.
I felt he got a lot of balls back but they were centre-balls which allowed Cilic to dictate. When Cilic had second serves, he had to get on top of him in that department.
Draper was using his backhand too much and that isn't his weapon.
He didn't get around and use his forehand enough, so I don't think he mixed up his positioning enough to give himself an opportunity to build pressure on the Cilic serve.
From its first announcement of Apple silicon Macs on 22 June 2020, there has been speculation as to when support of Intel models will cease. Now Apple has given exceptionally clear details of its future intentions, and we have a clearer idea of what’s coming in macOS Tahoe, we can make plans at last. This article looks at the years ahead. In each case, major events are scheduled to occur with the annual transition of macOS to the next major version, normally in September-October.
2025
Final security update for macOS 13 Ventura, ending support for:
iMac 18,1-3
MacBook 10,1
MacBook Pro 14,1-3.
If you’re still running Ventura on a Mac capable of Sonoma or later, now is the time to plan the upgrade.
2026
Final security update for macOS 14 Sonoma, ending support for:
MacBook Air 8,1-2.
First release of an Arm-only version of macOS, 27. However, that and all its updates will continue to include full support for running Intel binaries using Rosetta 2 translation. macOS 27 will be the last major version that supports Rosetta 2 fully in Virtual Machines.
2027
Final security update for macOS 15 Sequoia, ending support for:
iMac 19,1-2
iMac Pro
Mac mini 8,1
MacBook Air 9,1
MacBook Pro 15,1-4 16,3.
First release of macOS 28, with full Rosetta 2 support removed. Limited Intel binary support will continue for “older unmaintained gaming titles” only. As a result, virtual machines running macOS 28 will no longer be able to run most Intel binaries.
2028
Final security update for macOS 26 Tahoe, ending support for all remaining Intel models:
iMac 20,1-2
Mac Pro 7,1
MacBook Pro 16,1-2 16,4.
T2 firmware updates are almost certain to cease with the end of support for macOS 26. Major third-party vendors are likely to stop providing Universal binaries, as they too drop support for macOS 26 and Intel models. Apple may decide to remove x86 support from Xcode 29, but hasn’t yet made any statement either way.
Benefits of upgrading macOS in Intel models
Although macOS Sequoia and Tahoe have brought some new features for Intel Macs, much of Apple’s emphasis now requires Arm systems. Major reasons for upgrading your Intel Mac to the most recent version of macOS it can run include:
Third-party support. Major software vendors like Microsoft normally only support their products on versions of macOS still supported by Apple.
Safari is only updated in supported versions of macOS.
Bug fixes. Although new versions bring their own bugs, the chances of an existing bug being fixed in the current release of macOS are far greater than it being fixed in an older version.
Security vulnerabilities. Only the current version of macOS gets a full set of fixes in each round of security updates, and the older two supported versions often lag the current one.
Enhancements. Some new features are still provided for both platforms.
Compatibility. If you already use Apple silicon Macs, or intend doing so, they are more compatible when running the same version of macOS. One topical example is Tahoe’s new ASIF disk image format.
Quantum-secure encryption. Apple has already started to transition to cryptographic techniques designed to remain secure as and when quantum computers are used in the future to break older methods. This started with iMessage last year, and Apple has announced that macOS 26 Tahoe will support quantum-secure encryption in TLS. This is unlikely to be added retrospectively to older versions of macOS.
I hope you find that helpful in your planning, and wish you success in whatever you choose.
