Sir Keir Starmer has made a major gaffe by shaking the hand of an interpreter instead of the South Korean president Lee Jae-myung at the G7. There was further confusion about where the two leaders should stand before posing for a photograph at the gathering in Canada.
The Prime Minister met Mr Lee on the fringes of the summit in Kananaskis where the pair agreed to complete an upgrade to a free trade agreement between London and Seoul. It came after Sir Keir saved the day when US President Donald Trump dropped the pages of a UK-US trade deal as they spoke to reporters at the G7 summit.
Mr Trump also said his administration had reached an agreement with the European Union when he meant the United Kingdom.
