Westminster today - LIVE: Theresa May thanks Donald Trump for 'very strong response' to Salisbury nerve agent attack

Theresa May has spoken to Donald Trump to thank the US president for his 'very strong response' to the Salisbury nerve agent attack.

Earlier in the day, Ms May faced Jeremy Corbyn for the last session of Prime Minister's Questions before Parliament's two-week Easter recess.

The Labour leader attacked the Government on its record tackling mental health, pointing to failings at Southern Health, which has been fined £2m for the "avoidable" deaths of two young people.

Meanwhile Amber Rudd was quizzed by MPs over the Salisbury poisoning case and post-Brexit immigration when she appeared before the Home Affairs Committee.
