"Donald Trump was asked about UK PM Keir Starmer's fight to save his premiership - and also slammed the BBC as 'fake news' - as he spoke with the press pack aboard Air Force One on the flight home on Friday. The BBC reporter asked him about the alleged US Minab girls' school strike at the start of the Iran war - and replied that it was 'under investigation'. Media reports suggested preliminary findings showed the US was culpable, and has used out-of-date targeting data. "Who are you with?" he asked the reporter. "BBC, you mean the ones that put AI in my mouth? The ones that gave me, that had me saying a statement that they now admit was not true, that the ones that put terrible words in my mouth and that had to admit that it was fake, the ones that are being sued now for $5 billion and don't know what to do. You're with the BBC? They're another fake outfit." Trump is suing the British state-backed corporation over a 'doctored' clip which appeared to show him calling for violence at the January 6 Capitol Riot. On the UK PM, he said: "He's in trouble for two reasons, energy and immigration. He's very bad on energy. He should open up the North Sea. He's got a coal mine, and he should open up oil in the North Sea, and he doesn't." "Should he quit?" he was asked. "I don't say that he said, I think he's a nice man, actually. But, I mean, I didn't like what he said," Trump said, referring to the UK's refusal to help at the start of the Iran war. Starmer is under pressure to resign and could face leadership challenges after disastrous local election results."
