Asked about the comment, he said: “You’ll struggle to find anyone who hasn’t had things to say about Donald Trump.

“We’ll work with whomever the US choose to put in the White House.”

Mr Lammy also said he could work with running mate JD Vance, who called Britain the first “truly Islamist” nuclear state under Labour.

He said: “Let me just say on JD Vance that I’ve met him now on several occasions, we share a similar working class background with addiction issues in our family.
