Sir Keir Starmer cleaned up after President Donald Trump as he dropped papers from the newly signed UK-US trade agreement on the ground.
The British Prime Minister quickly stooped to the ground and picked up the documents as Trump stood next to him and appeared to grin.
‘A very important document,’ said Starmer as he held the papers that fell from the binder that Trump held.
Starmer and Trump presented a copy of the trade deal that they had announced in May, during the Group of Seven (G7) Summit at the Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge in Alberta, Canada, on Monday.

The two nations signed the document cementing the agreement, which Trump called ‘fair’ for both.
Starmer told Trump: ‘Donald, thank you very much. This now implements on car tariffs and aerospace. A really important agreement. And so this is a very good day for both of our countries, a real sign of strength.’
It was not immediately clear what if any changes were made to the agreement since May, as a copy was not immediately available.
‘We’re gonna let you have that information in little while,’ Starmer told reporters of the tariffs on steel.
