Emmanuel Macron joked the Bayeux Tapestry loan took longer to deliver than Brexit, after it was announced on Tuesday (8 July) that the 1000-year-old wall hanging will return to the UK.
Speaking to parliament on his first day of his state visit to the UK, the French president confirmed that the tapestry, which depicts the Norman Conquest of 1066, will be loaned to the British Museum for a year.
