London:British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has discussed "progress" on a trade deal between the UK and United States in a phone call with President Donald Trump, Downing Street said on Monday.
Late on Sunday the two leaders had a "brief discussion to update on progress made... in relation to the economic prosperity deal," a spokesman said.
It comes amid UK media reports that the government is considering scrapping a tax on tech giants in bid to avert US tariffs under Trump.
The prime minister's spokesman did not say whether slashing the digital services tax came up during the call, but said the UK would only strike a deal "in the national interest."
