Addressing reception marking 80th anniversary of VJ Day, prime minister says he spoke to Zelenskyy about allies’ values as Trump prepares to meet Putin
Nigel Farage has called for the right to nominate Reform UK supporters to the House of Lords, claiming this would address a “democratic disparity”.
The demand was dismissed by the defence secretary, John Healey, who said parliament would not benefit from “more Putin apologists”.
Reform UK wishes to appoint life peers to the upper house at the earliest possible opportunity.
I’m not sure that parliament’s going to benefit from more Putin apologists like Nigel Farage, to be honest.
Look at what he’s said about Russia, look at what he’s said about Putin in the past.
I think those are all hypotheticals. This is, as President Trump said, a first meeting, there’s an important principle, once serious negotiations start, that there can be no decisions about Ukraine without Ukraine.
So his declaration of bringing President Zelensky into the discussions is important, just as the aim to secure an unconditional ceasefire, to allow the negotiations to take place, is an important part of what I hope we will start to see as a result of the discussions today.
