In Paris today, @Keir_Starmer co-hosted an international summit with @EmmanuelMacron.
Joined by more than 45 countries, the summit’s mission is clear:
We must protect freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and see a return to peace and stability.

English

It’s good news that the Strait of Hormuz has now reopened.
This must be a long lasting and workable solution, without tolls or restrictions on routes.
Today we announced our joint plan with France and other international partners to protect freedom of navigation.
We need to see a return to peace and stability, and a permanent ceasefire.

BREAKING: PM visibly raging as he speaks to @SamCoatesSky on Mandelson vetting row
Starmer says it's "staggering" and "unforgivable that [he] was not told", he's "absolutely furious"
"I was not told he had failed security vetting... No 10 was not told, that is completely unacceptable."

The Country DOES trust Keir Starmer.I couldn't see you or any other leader of a party in this Country who could do the job he does.
Kemi Badenoch@KemiBadenoch
The Prime Minister appointed Peter Mandelson before the vetting had been completed, vetting Mandelson failed. Starmer then said full due process was followed. THAT is misleading Parliament. I'm only holding him to the same standards to which he’s held previous Prime Ministers - that if they mislead parliament, they should resign. In these dangerous times, Britain cannot afford to have a Prime Minister who the country doesn't trust. Starmer has betrayed our national security. He should go.

NEW: Anger in No 10 tonight - am told by a source that neither the PM nor his advisors were told, over a series of months, that Mandelson had been granted security clearance against the recommendation of UK security vetting. That suggests this information was held in foreign office and not shared.
Big Qs now about the PM misleading the House. I am told the PM had been asking Qs about vetting and not been told this information while giving statements to parliament.
Told this week PM had been trying to get answers about what happened since Tues night - Guardian got ahead of story.
The critical point is that the minister has to have ‘knowingly misled’ the House, and clearly No 10 saying tonight the PM was not aware. I understand the PM had been intending to update the HoC as soon as No 10 had established facts, which they have been doing since Tues. So expect to see the PM come to HoC on Monday to correct the record
I asked PM on March 16 whether he has misled the House when he said due process was followed. This is what he told me
BETH RIGBY: On the Mandelson files, your national security adviser said the process was quote, weirdly rushed, and Mandelson was appointed before developed vetting had been complete. You told MPs in the House of Commons that due process was followed. Is there a possibility that you have misled the House when you said that?
KEIR STARMER: No, and the independent adviser looked at that very question. I think on Thursday or Friday of last week, and answered it very robustly, that the process had been followed. The process wasn't strong enough. And amongst the changes that I intend to put into place is the fact that you can't announce someone until the vetting is finished. It wasn't an individual decision in the Mandelson case, that was the process. Well, you only have to look at that. in the light of the appointment, to realise that that needs to change. But on due process, the process that was there was followed, the problem was the process wasn't strong enough, but ultimately, it was my mistake and I have apologised for that and quite right to.

You won't hear a peep about this from Farage, Tice or Jenrick.
Under the Tories, up to 400 hotels were being used to house asylum seekers.
With Labour, there are now just 185, with 11 more hotels re-opening to the public, saving the taxpayer £65 million a year.
Alex Norris MP@AlexJJNorris
There were more than 400 asylum hotels under the previous government – that number has been more than halved, with 11 more closing this week. Labour is bringing the asylum system under control.
