The remaining enjoys calling out “foreign effect” in elections; you can hear the rumblings of Russian accusations that Donald Trump is being aided by Russia. However, Labour Party activists from the UK are a real european influencer for the Kamala Harris plan.

” Labour is sending nearly 100 current and former party team members to the U. S. to plan for the Democrats in swing state”, reports the Telegraph. In four important arenas in the run-up to the U.S. election on November 5, activists from Sir Keir Starmer’s group will invest the next two and a-half days canvassing for Kamala Harris.
Sofia Patel, the Labour Party’s head of operations, posted on Linked In,” I have nearly 100 Labour Party staff ( current and former ) going to the US in the next few weeks heading to North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Virginia. If anyone is willing to travel to the battle state of North Carolina, I have 10 spots available. We will arrange your cover. Email me on]email , protected ] if you’re interested. Regards”! The Labour employees are also traveling to battleground state despite the fact that she has since deleted the blog.
In August, Patel also sent an email to Labour team requesting participants to “help our friends across the lake choose their first woman leader.” She added,” This show those Yankees how to earn primaries”!
Elon Musk called the move “illegal“, although federal law does n’t prevent foreign nationals from stumping for candidates. Liberals are reportedly providing lodging for these individuals, but the protesters will have to travel by foot to the United States.

” Activists flying abroad will have to pay their way that, while party employees eager to help out Harris have been told to take annual leave if they want to travel,” Steerpike at The Spectator writes. ” Those wanting to go have been informed that Democrat politicians can provide accommodation for them on arrival, as they prepare to spend the following two-and-a-half week campaigning for the Democratic candidate in four key battlegrounds – Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Virginia – back of” the election.
A law governing campaign donations could cause the problem the campaign might face. Go expenses exceeding$ 1, 000 are considered a contribution to the strategy, which could lead to charges.
According to The Telegraph,” Lawrence Otter, a constitutional and electoral law expert, said the Harris campaign and any activist who travels with more than$ 1,000 could face a” substantial” fine from the Federal Elections Commission ( FEC )”.
Needless to say, Republicans are disgusted by the Labour interference in the 2024 presidential vote.
Republican warned that if Donald Trump were to win the presidency, the ideas would “huge” the UK’s relationship with the United States, according to the Telegraph.

Sebastian Gorka told the Telegraph,” It’s complete meddling in American elections and an amazing display of desperation that this would be allowed or encouraged by the Kamala battle.” If, God ready, the America First team prevails in November and President Trump emerges winning,” I think the real extent of the damage will be obvious.”
Britain’s conservatives are n’t happy either:
This is primary election meddling by the ruling Labour Party, which is absurd if Trump wins. Who is footing the bill for everything? photograph. twitter.com/uSV5KTz88V— Nigel Farage MP ( @Nigel_Farage ) October 18, 2024
You have nothing to worry about if they are as well-known as they are around.

How to destroy the exclusive relationship.
Imagine Donald Trump winning in a few months.
He’s finally got to deal with Labour’s David Lammy who called him a “neo-Nazi sympathizing megalomaniac” and” a bigoted KKK and Nazi supporter”.
Not only that he will also have to deal with … photograph. twitter.com/aiz3SgMyCn

The biggest issue with the activism of the Labour Party is that it could damage the” special relationship” between the United States and the United Kingdom. If Trump wins, he’ll have to collaborate with a Labour-led, active campaign against him. There’s also the magnification of the condition. Is Labour prepared to handle the effects of its effective Harris campaigning role?

Guido Fawkes points out that “having the Labour’s DOO organize pro-Harris interference is n’t the best look for a government that insists on maintaining neutrality, especially given Trump’s improved chances of winning.”
Steerpike asks,” …is it really quite a clever political walk from the Labour party?” Time will tell …”
Time will tell however. And if Trump emerges winning, Labour may also dread jumping into the fray.
