Macron arrives in London for Starmer’s Brexit surrender

Emmanuel Macron is in London this week, meeting the Royal Family - and Keir Starmer isn’t missing the chance to cosy up to the French President. The Prime Minister is hosting a summit in central London with Macron, bringing in French and British business bosses to talk trade and tech. Starmer is talking once again of strengthening ties with Europe, but is this yet another Brexit surrender deal after his ‘EU reset’ that gave away access to British fishing waters for twelve years?Starmer and Macron are also expected to announce plans for French police to do more to stop the endless flow of small boats crossing the Channel. But with no sign of a proper returns deal for illegal migrants, Tim and Cleo Watson ask The Daily Telegraph’s Europe Editor James Crisp what Britain really gets from this relationship. And we remember Tory grandee Norman Tebbit, who has died aged 94. A towering figure in Margaret Thatcher’s cabinet, he helped take on the unions, oversaw privatisation and famously survived the IRA’s Brighton bomb of 1984. Lord Charles Moore, Thatcher’s biographer, reflects on Tebbit’s legacy and the era he helped shape.Read:Victorious Macron arrives at summit to accept Starmer’s Brexit surrender - James CrispLord Tebbit, pugnacious Tory who articulated the Iron Lady’s views to the man on the streetProducer: Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineySocial Media Producer: James SimmonsVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Operator: Meghan SearleOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.
