Politics LIVE: Keir Starmer set for summit with Macron after migrant surrender

Keir Starmer and Emmanuel Macron will conclude the French President's state visit today with a major summit to discuss migrants, defence and the economy with a press conference this afternoon.
The final day of the three-day red carpet visit comes amid widespread fury at reports Keir Starmer has caved in on negotiations around migrant boats, and walked back from his preferred outcome.
Last night it emerged that far from the one-in-one-out deal Sir Keir had hoped for, he may instead achieve just 50 returns a week - a ratio closer to 17-in, one-out.
The news was condemned by senior politicians, including a raft of former Home Secretaries. James Cleverly said the PM's negotiation had been "pathetic".
The French do not do favours, they are tough negotiators who act in their national interest. I respect that. Starmer expected favours, wouldn’t recognise the national interest if it sat on him, and couldn’t negotiate his way out of a wet paper bag."
Suella Braverman, his predecessor, added: "This is ridiculous. The ratio should be 170 out for every 1 in."
