LONDON, March 9 (Reuters) - A ⁠planned visit by King Charles to the United States should be cancelled after ⁠President Donald Trump repeatedly insulted Britain, the leader of the country's third-biggest party ‌in parliament said on Monday.

Trump has repeatedly criticised Prime Minister Keir Starmer after London initially blocked the U.S. from using British bases to attack Iran, saying he was "not Winston Churchill" and that Starmer had helped to "ruin" the so-called ​Special Relationship between the two countries.
