The Prime Minister will this afternoon meet the new US President in the White House, becoming the first world leader to hold face-to-face talks with the businessman-turned-politician since his inauguration.
Last night, Mrs May hailed the “unique and special relationship” between Britain and the US in a speech to a Republican Party conference in Philadelphia.
Professor Ted Malloch, currently the top contender to be named President Trump’s top diplomat in Brussels, revealed Mrs May’s address had been awarded “high marks”.
He told Express.co.uk: “She talked about renewal of the special relationship. She really stepped out on a right foot.
“The reviews in American papers are, frankly, generally all very positive.”
He contrasted this with the “frosty” relationship between President Trump and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
