“Often these candidates chose to come through various European countries in the run up to the US elections. I don’t know whether that will happen. No dates are fixed but I am always happy to meet people on that basis,” Cameron told reporters at the G7.

“On Donald Trump, look I would congratulate anybody who can get through those marathon processes for leading one of the two great political parties in the United States of America - it is an extraordinary marathon,” Cameron said.
