Donald Trump says Prime Minister Andy Burnham told him he will “open up” North Sea oil. According to both outlets, Trump made the comments following a phone call with the UK prime minister. The claim is presented as Trump’s account of what was discussed during the call, with both reports using similar wording about expanding North Sea oil activity.
In the same conversation, Trump also criticizes Britain’s immigration policy. He reportedly says immigration is “killing” Britain, describing it as harmful to the country. The reports frame the immigration remarks as part of Trump’s broader views expressed during the phone call with Burnham.
Both sources focus on Trump’s statements and do not include further detail on timing, policy specifics, or any response from the UK government. They also do not provide independent verification of the positions discussed beyond Trump’s account of the conversation.
