Charles and Camilla's four-day trip to the US at the end of the month comes amid an increasingly fractious transatlantic relationship, following verbal assaults by President Trump on Sir Keir and other Nato allies for refusing to back his war in Iran.

- Description
- The Government should encourage people to work from home to address energy shortages in the aftermath of the war in Iran, a former Government adviser has said.
Professor Nick Butler, previously vice-president for strategy and policy at oil giant BP, said the 'worst was yet to come' with spiking fuel prices. He predicted that the price of diesel could still rise a "good deal" above £2 per litre by May when the 'real crisis' and shortage of fuel hits the UK and Europe.
He added that it would be "perfectly sensible" for ministers to instruct workers to remain at home to conserve fuel.
Prof Butler's words come as US-Israeli military action in Iran since February has seen the price of oil soar to record levels, with prices up more than 60% so far this year as the blockade of the crucial shipping route Strait of Hormuz continues.
