SIR Keir Starmer faces calls to rule out allowing the US to use British bases to support any attack on Greenland as Washington contin- ues to threaten to take over the territory.

US officials have said they could use “military means” to “acquire” the semi-autonomous Danish territory, which President Donald Trump claims is vital for national security.

Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey called on the Prime Minister to rule out support for such action, saying the UK “must never play midwife to American aggression directed against our Nato allies”.

He said he was “deeply concerned” that Sir Keir was yet to rule out the use of British bases, and said the Prime Minister should “spell out to Trump and his lawless cabinet that the UK will never support such a dangerous act”.
