Joe Biden has shown support for Keir Starmer's goal of fostering a closer relationship between the UK and the European Union during their first bilateral talks at the White House.

The US president called the US and the UK the best of allies as he met the new UK prime minister.

Biden said, “I kind of see you guys as the knot tying the transatlantic alliance together, the closer you are with Europe,” he told Starmer.

Biden has maintained a strong interest in Brexit, consistently cautioning that peace in Northern Ireland must not be endangered by complications arising from the UK's decision to leave the EU.

Notably, the UK PM has used the NATO summit to emphasise the UK’s commitment to the alliance, as well as to Ukraine, assuring that he will stick with plans to spend at least £3bn ($35,913,257.56 USD) every year on military support to Kyiv for “as long as is it takes” in its conflict with Russia.

Starmer is also trying to build relationships with European leaders as he tries to seal an EU-UK security pact.

“The relationship is special and important. It’s forged in difficult circumstances, endured for so long, and stronger now than ever,” the UK PM said and added, “I’m very contented to be able to come so early in government to recommit to NATO, to recommit to the special relationship.”

<h2>Biden-Starmer meet</h2>

At the beginning of their talks, Biden was asked by reporters about George Clooney's article in the New York Times, which suggested that Biden should step down as the Democratic presidential candidate. The president simply shrugged in response.

When asked by reporters if “football is coming home”? “It looks like it,” Starmer replied.

UK PM told the US President, “I began to watch the game with the Netherlands prime minister, but we left at 1-1.”

Biden threw his head back and laughed, revealing a glistening set of teeth. “And you guys are still talking to one another?” he joked.

Earlier, the prime minister, an avid football fan, presented the president with an Arsenal shirt featuring the name "Biden" and the number 46 on the back—a nod to his position as the 46th US president.&nbsp;

“It’s [Starmer’s] team and [he] thought it would make a personal gift,” a senior No 10 official said.&nbsp;

Starmer has earlier given the French President Emmanuel Macron an Arsenal t-shirt as a gift.

He also gave Biden a framed copy of the original Atlantic charter that led to the formation of NATO, with then Labour prime minister Clement Attlee’s amendments.

After the talks, the Bidens were hosting Starmer, who has been accompanied by his wife, Victoria, to Washington, and other Nato leaders and their partners at a glitzy White House dinner.

The IMF has warned that the UK, under its new Labour government, faces tough decisions due to high public debt. In its annual economic review, the IMF emphasized the need to balance public spending while stabilizing debt, which is nearing 100% of GDP. This challenge arises as the country requires significant investment in sectors like healthcare, which suffers from chronic underfunding and an aging population. Additionally, the IMF called for ambitious reforms to boost growth.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that the United Kingdom, under its new Labour government, faces tough decisions due to high public debt.

In its annual economic review, the IMF stressed the need to balance public spending while stabilising debt, which is nearing 100 per cent of GDP.

This challenge arises as the country requires significant investment in sectors like healthcare, which suffers from chronic underfunding and an ageing population.

Additionally, the IMF called for ambitious reforms to boost growth.

For consumers, this means potential changes in tax policies.

The IMF suggested that the government might need to increase tax revenues by raising carbon, inheritance, and property taxes, and broadening the VAT base.

While these measures aim to control debt, they could impact household budgets and consumer spending.

The IMF also noted a soft landing for the economy after a mild recession last year, predicting 0.7 per cent growth in 2024, with a rise to 1.5 per cent in 2025 and 1.7 per cent in 2026.

Inflation is expected to hit 2.5 per cent temporarily by year-end but is currently on target.

Despite challenges like weak productivity and an ageing population, increased immigration has helped mitigate negative effects, with Brexit impacts gradually fading.

The Labour Party, led by Keir Starmer, won a landslide victory, ending 14 years of conservative rule.

New finance minister Rachel Reeves aims to stimulate growth, focusing on infrastructure projects, including onshore wind power and housing.

Consumers can expect a period of adjustment with potential tax hikes and a focus on long-term economic stability and growth, which could improve public services and infrastructure in the future.

A 77-year-old UK woman who killed her 'terminally ill' son with a large dose of morphine in 1981 died last week battling cancer. Antonya Cooper from Abingdon, Oxfordshire was fighting breast, pancreatic and liver cancer. Just last week, she had admitted to killing her son with a drug overdose decades ago to end his 'suffering' and 'quietly end his life'. She said her son Hamish was in 'a lot of pain' and was 'facing the most horrendous suffering'.

She also stressed that she was 'willing to face the consequences' of her actions. Following her confession, Thames Valley Police had opened a probe into the incident.

Cooper's daughter was quoted as saying by BBC that her mom died at home in peace. "It was exactly the way she wanted it. She lived life on her terms and she died on her terms," she said.

<h2>Assisted death illegal in UK</h2>

It must be noted that assisted death is illegal in UK. Back in 2015, members of parliament rejected such a proposal 330-118. However, support for an alternative policy has grown over the last few years. One opinion poll showed that 75 per cent of the public now supports legislation for assisted death.

Cooper last week recalled how she 'helped' her son escape a lot of pain' that came from his stage 4 cancer and “beastly” treatment.

“On Hamish’s last night, when he said he was in a lot of pain, I said: ‘Would you like me to remove the pain?’ and he said: ‘Yes please, mama.’

“And through his Hickman catheter, I gave him a large dose of morphine that did quietly end his life,” she added.
