We worked behind the scenes for months! - PM Starmer on Gaza deal after US ambassador branded UK contribution 'delusional'

"UK PM Sir Keir Starmer insisted that his country had 'worked behind the scenes' on the Gaza deal for months - following a row with the US which saw one of his ministers branded 'delusional' by the US - speaking in the House of Commons on Tuesday. "Alongside our partners, we have also offered the UK's full support to these efforts. Mr Speaker, we've worked behind the scenes for months with the US, Arab and European nations to help deliver a ceasefire, get the hostages out, get aid in and secure a better future for Israel, Gaza and the West Bank," he said. His opposite number, Kemi Badenoch, brought up the row between US Ambassador Mike Huckabee and minister Bridget Phillipson, who claimed on Sunday: "We have played a key role behind the scenes in shaping this." Huckabee had responded: I assure you she’s delusional. She can thank [Donald Trump] anytime just to set the record straight." "The US ambassador to Israel even called the government's claim that it played a key role in the ceasefire delusional, something Israeli foreign ministers agreed with foreign ministers agreed with," Badenoch said. US envoy Steve Witkoff later attempted to defuse the row, saying the UK had had a 'vital role'."
