Sir Keir Starmer has hailed the “closeness” of the UK and Germany, as the two nations signed a treaty that is set to free up school exchange visits and passport e-gates.
The Prime Minister and German chancellor Friedrich Merz signed the deal – to be known as the Kensington Treaty – at the V&A Museum on London, as Sir Keir said they will look to “work ever more closely” on issues such as trade, security and defence.
