The 62-year-old Labour leader was joined by Chancellor Rachel Reeves as he appeared at a Jaguar Land Rover plant in the West Midlands to address the challenges car manufacturers will face following tariffs announced by US President Donald Trump last week.
In his speech this afternoon (April 7), Starmer said there is "no doubt" about the challenges the tariff will bring, but urged companies to have "cool heads".
The PM added: "Nobody wins from a trade war - you know that, but it's also a moment for urgency. Because we've got to rise together as a nation to the great challenge of our age - and it is the great challenge of our age - which is to renew Britain so we are stable in this era of global instability.
