The challenges we face in Europe demand strong partnerships.
Today I’ve signed a defence treaty with @DonaldTusk to strengthen our shared security and capabilities.

Enjoyed calling in at the new Calverley Library with local councillors @petercarlill and @CalFarCraig earlier today.
It was great to see local families making use of library and community services in this beautiful historic building.
Labour MPs just voted to expand free school meals to half a million more children, lifting 100,000 children out of poverty.
The Tories and Reform UK voted against.
Only Labour will give children growing up in our country the best start in life.
After a decade of Conservative austerity, which stripped more than £240m from our council, with a Labour government we are now delivering budget is about rebuilding services and restoring pride in Leeds. #Leeds#Labour
So there we have it. Reform UK want to repeal the Equality Act.
This is the law that:
Stops your boss sacking you for being pregnant.
Protects disabled workers who need adjustments to do their job.
Backs up equal pay for women.
Stops people from being harassed at work because they’re LGBT+.
Makes it illegal to refuse someone a job or a service because of their race or religion.
And THIS is what they’ve decided is the problem in Britain?
Not the cost of living.
Not NHS waits.
Not wages. (They said they’d actually them CUT for young people)
But YOUR rights.
THEIR culture wars would TEAR UP protections that millions of hardworking Brits rely on every day.
NO THANKS ❌
You've appointed Tories to your top team. Why should people believe your party is any different?
Farage: "These were two people who were ministers but frankly weren't ministers for very long"
Braverman was a minister for over 4 years.
Jenrick was a minister for almost 5 years.
