President Joe Biden drew applause from a small group of supporters during a visit to a Democratic campaign office in New Hampshire when he suggested putting former President Donald Trump behind bars.

“I know this sounds bizarre. It sounds like if I said this five years ago, you’d lock me up. We gotta lock him up,” he said, as people in the room began to clap. Biden then clarified that he meant that “politically.”

Meanwhile, the Trump campaign has accused far-left UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and his Labour Party of illegally assisting Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign.

Trump’s team requested the Federal Election Commission to investigate after a senior Labour figure issued a rallying cry for current and former staffers to head to battleground states and campaign for Harris ahead of the November 5 vote, reports noted.

Starmer stated on Wednesday that his party had done nothing wrong. He noted that party members frequently travel to the U.S. before elections to assist their Democratic counterparts, but emphasized that such efforts are voluntary rather than orchestrated by the party, and thus do not violate American election law.

“Nevertheless, if the FEC agrees with Trump — that Labour and Harris are guilty of flouting foreign interference rules — it could issue big fines,” NBC News reported.

“When representatives of the British government previously sought to go door-to-door in America, it did not end well for them,” Trump campaign lawyer Gary Lawkowski wrote. “This past week marked the 243 anniversary of the surrender of British forces at the Battle of Yorktown, a military victory that ensured that the United States would be politically independent of Great Britian [sic]. It appears that the Labour Party and the Harris for President campaign have forgotten the message.”

Starmer denied Labour had broken any laws, saying it has volunteers “who have gone over pretty much every election,” according to NBC partner Sky News in the UK.

“They’re doing it in their spare time. They’re doing it as volunteers. They’re staying, I think, with other volunteers over there,” he said, adding that he had “established a good relationship” with Trump. “That’s what they’ve done in previous elections, that’s what they’re doing in this election, and that’s really straightforward.”

A Labour spokesperson repeated the denial in an email, stating it was “common practice for campaigners of all political persuasions from around the world to volunteer in U.S. elections.” The spokesperson said that “where Labour activists take part, they do so at their own expense, in accordance with the laws and rules.”

The genesis of Trump’s complaint revolves around a now-deleted LinkedIn post by Labour’s head of operations, Sofia Patel, in which she mentioned that nearly 100 “Labour Party staff” were traveling to North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Nevada. In her post, she noted that there were 10 “spots” available in North Carolina and stated, “we will sort your housing.”

Trump’s team argues that this offer constitutes foreign interference, claiming that the “we” refers to the Labour Party itself.

While foreign nationals are permitted to volunteer during election campaigns, they cannot participate in any decision-making processes or incur expenses exceeding $1,000 per candidate. If any British volunteer’s flights, accommodation, and daily expenses surpass this amount, it could violate the law, NBC News noted.
