Macron-May talks live updates: Theresa May expected to discuss Brexit with French President at Sandhurst meeting

Theresa May will welcome Emmanuel Macron to the UK later today, with discussions between the two leaders likely to focus on Brexit.

The French President and a number of his ministers will attend the UK-France Summit at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst.

Ahead of the visit, Ms May announced the UK will take more child refugees from Calais and spend £44.5m on additional security at the French port.

Britain will also deploy three RAF helicopters to Mali to support French counter-terrorism missions in Africa.

Elsewhere, the Government passed a significant milestone as MPs voted through the EU Withdrawal Bill last night.
