ladies and gentlemen, the united kingdom and the kingdom of spain may have different forms of governmentbe written or unwritten. however, we have shared a great deal and continue to do so. we are two of the old est continue to do so. we are two of the oldest nations in europe and in the world. we are parliamentary monarchy is based on a firm commitment to the plurality and diversity that enrich our societies. we have been in two major worldwide empire is that stretched across the atlantic with a global vision. our languages are today the main means of international communication. in short, we have a shared history and we are united today by the strong bonds of personal esteem and affection between our societies. furthermore, we pay respect for national sovereignty and the law established through democratic process , established through democratic process, which is the cornerstone of every state under the rule of law, guaranteeing the peaceful and harmonious coexistence of our citizens. in the spirit of these principles i stand before this parliament with great pride, representing the mod

the united kingdom is involved in every aspect of this. the leader of the opposition has spent his entire life opposing trade deals with countries around the world, such as mexico and india. the prime minister's success at sees us looking east and west that trade deals. as my friend agree that we should recognize and be proud of the global confidence in british services, goods, and the british economy? >> my honorable friend is absolutely right. i think the fact that a number of leaders, those i have mentioned, but others as well, expressed their interest in trade deals with the united kingdom as a vote of confidence in the british people. >> mr. speaker, i would be in australia know, and india, how much do she expected trade deal to be worth and how much extra immigration she intends to accept? >> the honorable lady may know that there is a limit to what we can put in place while we are members of the au, but that does not mean we can't discuss what a future agreement might he. also, it doesn't mean we can't discuss how we can approve --

the united kingdom living would be ludicrous. partners are moving on with opec. is having trade deals with japan while the u.k. falls on itself. showsamber of congress 61% of scottish businesses feel the u.k. should remain a single market. scandalous that the otherminister favors colleagues. mr. speaker, i welcome the progress made at the g-20 summit. agree with a work of the german chancellor on global issues. the communique is clear that we must double down efforts in the paris agreement, calling it irreversible. i asked the prime minister about the paris agreement and the u.k.. g-20 africa including the initiative and creating 1.1 jobs by 2022. u.k.n confirm whether the will continue after exiting the eu. is speaker, the agreement universally welcomed in this house. the conclusions to take immediate and effective measures to eliminate child labor by 2025 about forced labor, human trafficking, and all forms of modern slavery are promising steps indeed. however, the prime minister went opening coreth the message for her chu wanted the g-20 to tackle terrorism. i

when that money is much needed in the united kingdom. can she promised to cut the overseas aid budget only on priorities in the uk, i hope she doesn't have a strange political aversion to anything that might be popular with the public. >> i can assure -- i take a different view. it is important. given the position we hold, the state of our economy, one of the largest economies in the world, we are actually recognized we can help those around the world, we are seeing millions of people, particularly girls being educated, that is important, i recognize what my honorable friend has said, we have suffered terrible terrorist attacks in the united kingdom and our services have foiled a number of terrorist attacks in recent months and going back over recent years too. it is important to ensure good governments in countries so we don't see where terrorists are able to train. >> i think prime minister for visiting during the election. it went up 50 times. 53,000 eu nationals would like some clarity on this generous offer of how much extra the app

what about the united kingdom?tary boris johnson of course has turkish a ncestry johnson of course has turkish ancestry and he wrote very rude: about you. has he apologised about that and has that incident in any way damaged uk— turkish ties? no, iwasjust...! no, i wasjust...! i wasjust asking if he perhaps apologised to you for having a schleck did he apologise? talking about the united kingdom of course, post— brexit, your prime minister has said in talks that he had with theresa may, the british prime minister, in february but after britain leads the united union any bilateral deal, trade deal, between turkey and the united kingdom would have to be based on the fact that there would have to be freedom of movement for turkish citizens between the uk and turkey, if there is to be a bilateral deal, thatis if there is to be a bilateral deal, that is the condition. is that the case? but will you say, as your prime minister has stated, that it is a condition of any bilateral trade agreement between turkey and the uk p

we are seeing them invest more in the united kingdom. opening up more opportunity for our sme's in particular. we want this to be two way traffic. buying a lot of high-end american kit. f-35's from you. attack helicopters and so on. we expect that their return from that. we are also watching very closely any tendency towards and discriminating against british companies in particular. british companies involved in the united states defense as well. these are issues we discussed with the administrative. heather: fantastic. we have a short time for two quick questions. two right here and then we will close out. sir? >> you talked a lot about military to military cooperation. the kit, as you put it. have you had a chance to express the u.k. government's displeasure about the leaks of intelligence, particularly around the manchester bombing, and the damage that can do with the community here and in london? heather: thank you. mr. secretary, very recently, a former chief of defense voiced his concern because of those high ticket items like car

but the counter daesh campaign is far from the united kingdom's only operation. we are not just in the middle east, and we continue in afghanistan where we are committed to increasing troop numbers again after the uplift we announced last summer, and building the capacity, and strengthening the afghan air force, and training the next generation of afghan officers. we are in africa, too, training somalians to fight al shabaab, assisting sudan in the humanen crisis. in total, this afternoon, we have more than 10,000 british servicemen and women deployed or in bases that are involved in some 25 operations around the globe. so britain has delivered. britain is delivering and we will continue to do so. but my third point is that we will do so in partnership. we are stronger, of course, when we work together. the fact is today that our nations are facing a wave of multiple concurrent diverse global threats from euz lislam extremis extremism, and from russia, more aggressive as we have seen in ukraine and syria, and iran sponsoring terror, and from the spread of misinfo

europe cannot be without united kingdom.ut the united kingdom is not europe. britain was always seen as a very valued member of the european team on a number of levels, and that meant that the other eu countries were willing to do some special deals for the uk to keep it sweet. we didn't have to join the euro currency, for example, and we got a rebate on our contributions to the eu budget. but, that was when we were inside the club. now we're on our way out, and the eu says it has other priorities. i know the uk very well, i've been working with a lot of british ministers in the last 20 years — they are very fine negotiators, but they have the characteristics to negotiate in their own interest. we are going to negotiate for our own interest too. the european commission is negotiating brexit on behalf of all the eu's 27 countries. nobody wants to punish the uk for its choice, the british people for their choice, but one thing is clear — the show must go on. the european show will go on. even if there'll be some changes in the

that trade is about bringing jobs, prosperity and opportunity to the united kingdom.g at the arrangements we have in relation to future relationship with the european union, as ijust said, i think it is in the interests of both sides in this negotiation to ensure we have the deep and special partnership for the future. we are leaving the european union, we're not leaving europe and we will continue to cooperate and work with our european partners. yes. prime minister, donald trump says we could get a trade deal very quickly, but he's not someone who has always seen through his promises to the american people. he said he would build a wall, he said he would re—negotiate nafta and 0bamaca re. wall, he said he would re—negotiate nafta and 0bamacare. would you approach it in a sceptical way?|j will approach it in a sceptical way?” will approach it in an optimistic way and we have started talking with the americans. liam fox was over, the americans. liam fox was over, the trade secretary over in the united states a couple of weeks ago talking to their trade minister about

including the united kingdom, which i believe sends a strong signal that the united kingdom remains openand that we welcome this deal and we are in a position to do similar deals ourselves, post—brexit. and do you agree with that? isn't this than an example of what could be achieved, albeit in a shorter space of time if the government gets its way, a free—trade deal between the uk and the eu? well, we absolutely have to land a deal between us and the eu. they have managed to with japan. 0ver four years. we have less than two years left in terms of the sorting out of our exit which become significant in terms of what we do in transition. but also to have an equality of the scale of the economy is when you are looking at the eu and japan. we are in a different position sort of in the future if we are looking atjust the uk to bring trade. isn't that the problem? twice as long as the amount of time that theresa may and david davis have at their disposal to secure a trade deal between the eu? i think the challenges are huge and you shouldn't underestimate it. is it impossible to achieve? the

i made it very clear that united kingdom would support that attack. and we did support that attack publicly. the use of chemical weapons is illegal and it's barbaric and innocent lives were lost. we are in no doubt that the source of the original chemical weapon attack was the regime. it was only the regime aircraft in the air at that particular time. any effort to do with that or to forestall a for the chemical weapons attack will have united kingdoms full support. >> i'm going to keep spinning michael and i moved to afghanistan. ten years from now as you explaining to children and grandchildren what the role of british military forces were in afghanistan and what an accomplishment what would that story be? >> our role was to falter it was first to reduce the threat of these transnational terror groups operating from afghanistan using it as a safe base to attack the west. it was to reduce, then to eliminate that particular threat. it was also to try and build a better future for the people of afghanistan like we now have, a democracy, a fragile democ

the friends and of our late colleague and he recognized the role he played in politics in the united kingdom including in this house. i say as i said to the leader of the opposition, what is important is we ensure we have an economy that is increasing the number of jobs because of the best route out of poverty is people to be in work. by cuttingp people taxes. that is exactly what we have done for people who are lowercase. introducing the national living wage. >> it is the forecast of a rise in work poverty that is of the consensus, the monthly increase of people who are young in poverty. has risen by00 39.3 percent. workers have paid the price. in 2021will make left and they did in 2008. 2021 than theys in did in 2008. >> i would think the honorable gentleman would understand what quantitative easing does to make sure the economy is open to people. coming what steps the government has taken to ensure taxpayer money is used to promote global security? >> i am proud that the government has committed to honoring our international commitments on aisde. this money is saving lives and building a

today, they are close to defeat mosul.r last city of but the campaign is far from the united kingdom's only operations. we have been going global. we are not just in the middle east. we continue in afghanistan, where we continue to increase in troop numbers after the uplift we announced last summer, willing counterterrorism capacity, improving the resilience of afghan forces, strengthening the afghan air force. training the next generation of afghan officers. tradingn africa, too, somalians to fight -- training somalians to fight al-shabab. total, this afternoon, we have more than 10,000 british service and and women deployed -- men and women deployed in some 25 operations around the globe. so britain has delivered come up britain is delivering, and we will continue to do so. is, we will point do so in partnership. course, whener, of we work together. the fact is today, our nations are facing a wave of multiple concurrent, diverse, global threats from islamist it extremism, from north korea testing missiles, as we have seen, from russia, more aggressive as we have seen in the ukraine a

i care deeply about the united kingdom, our relationship with it. if confirmed, i will devote all of my energies to strengthening and deepening that relationship. as the u.k. undergoes a complex transaction politically and economically, there are opportunities and challenges for the united states. i believe i can make a contribution by drawing both on my business and philanthropic experience. i've had the privilege of managing many organizations bringing people from diverse backgrounds and experience and perspective. it's my belief that diversity of experience and expertise are strengths in achieving shared goals and priorities. in my years working with the robert w. johnson foundation to improve health and health care for americans, i learned the value of patience and tenacity in meeting challenges. the foundation's 40-year multibillion dollar effort to reduce smoking is just one example. after my daughter jamie was diagnosed with lupus, i launched the alliance for lupus research in 1999. i did this not only for my daughter, but to help the 1.5 mil

what we want to do is negotiate the best possible deal for the united kingdom that ensures we have a comprehensive free-trade agreement, that we continue to trade with our european partners , that we have the deep and special partnership with european union, and that we ensure we are growing our economy, not just about our relationship with the european union. it is about trade deals with countries around the rest of the world and it is about ensuring sound management from a conservative government. it has been highlighted to me the valuable contributions that retired police sergeants and now special constable ross hall has made to maritime policing. does my right honorable friend believe that joint working with other agencies is essential and can make a positive contribution to beating crime in our small harbors and help protect our borders? pm may: can i join my honorable friend in recognizing the contribution that special constable ralph hall has made in her constituency. she makes a very important point. when i was home secretary, i brought various agencies together to look at ju

the approach so far seems to be very political, about punishing the united kingdom. sensible approaches to agree. from my perspective, is your message to europe get on with it? >> the outcome of the trade agreement and i hope a tread side -- ratified is the objectives and principles. it's driven by the understanding that free trade is mutually official to all. there is no intent whatsoever to be engaged in a process of punishing the united kingdom. they have referendum -- we respect the decision of the british people. the european union recognizes that. in terms of the pace of negotiations between the eu and the u.k., we are participating. we think what important is we have negotiated. under the triggering of article 50, the negotiations have to be concluded by a particular time. we said it will be increasingly important to look at the issue of transitional agreements, to see how the british economy and the european economy moved to a new landing point in the next two years. that was the irish finance minister. here's a peek of what happening. we are performance away
