Andy Burnham is about to meet face to face with someone his official sees as causing the British government's financial woes: Donald Trump. The new British prime minister is still trying to maintain his consistent optimistic attitude during his first two months in office. He will meet with the US President during the UN General Assembly next week. However, Burnham's staff are privately increasingly concerned that Trump's related measures may cause energy bills, inflation, and interest rates to rise simultaneously this winter, jeopardizing the new prime minister's core campaign promise to reduce the cost of living. A senior Labor Party official said that Burnham's honeymoon period came to an abrupt end this week, and the root cause was all Trump. According to people familiar with the matter, Burnham's primary goal of this meeting was to persuade Trump to release the “Patriots” anti-aircraft missile reserves so that they can be delivered to Ukraine before winter. The two sides will also discuss how Europe can ease the disturbance in the Middle East situation.
