Donald Trump tells GB News’s Ben Leo that UK 'needs to resurrect like Jesus' but has 'long way to go'

Donald Trump has told GB News the UK "has a long way to go to resurrect like Jesus."

The President was speaking to reporters outside the White House as part of the annual Easter egg roll that takes place on the lawns of the White House.

Speaking to Chief US Correspondent Ben Leo, he said: "We don't want another Neville Chamberlain, do we agree? We don't want another Neville Chamberlain."

President Trump has threatened to rain "hell" on Tehran if it did not make a deal by 8pm EDT (midnight GMT) that would allow traffic to start moving again through the Strait of Hormuz.

When asked the same question, Eric Trump told GB News: "It needs to be. It needs to be. Free speech needs to be resurrected in the UK."

The US and Iran are currently weighing up a framework plan to end their five‑week-old conflict, as Tehran said it wanted a lasting end to the war and pushed back against pressure to swiftly reopen the strait under a temporary ceasefire.

Iran conveyed its response to the US proposal for ending the war to Pakistan, rejecting a ceasefire and emphasizing the necessity of a permanent end to the war, the official IRNA news agency said on Monday.

The Iranian response consisted of 10 clauses, including an end to conflicts in the region, a protocol for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, lifting of sanctions, and reconstruction, the agency added.
