"They (relations) are more positive now than they were with your former prime minister (Keir Starmer), if you say so," Trump told reporters.
Right now, based on my relationship with your Prime Minister Andy, I think things are going really well.
Starmer resigned in July and handed over to Labour Party colleague Andy Burnham.
However, Trump expressed criticism of a plan to hand over the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean - which house a British-American military base - to Mauritius.
"It's terrible," Trump said.
The agreement with Mauritius was put on hold in April. But since Burnham took office, the plan has been reopened for renewal.
