Live: Angela Rayner faces PMQs as Trump accuses Labour of US election interference

Watch live as Angela Rayner steps in for Sir Keir Starmer at Prime Minister’s Questions today (Wednesday 23 October).

PMQs comes as Donald Trump’s campaign accused Sir Keir’s Labour Party of interfering in the US presidential election.

Filing a complaint with the US Federal Election Commission (FEC) which accuses Labour of illegal foreign campaign donations, the campaign’s co-manager Susie Wiles claimed: “The far-left Labour Party has inspired Kamala’s dangerously liberal policies and rhetoric.

“In recent weeks, they have recruited and sent party members to campaign for Kamala in critical battleground states, attempting to influence our election.”

The claims follow reports of senior Labour officials meeting with Kamala Harris’ campaign, and Labour Party staffers volunteering on the ground for her campaign.
