For the next six months we will bring 27 member states together to find common ground on the issues that matter at home: jobs, energy costs, farming, housing, opportunities for young people and so much more. Our priorities are clear. Competitiveness. Values. Security.

@Keir_Starmer leaves the relationship between our two islands stronger than he found it. Together we agreed to reset that relationship. To build it on peace, prosperity, mutual respect and friendship. To honour our shared duty as co-guarantors of the Good Friday Agreement.

Keir approached that work with seriousness, with decency and with heart. Thank you Keir, because of your leadership British and Irish relations can only go from strength to strength. I wish you, Victoria and your family every happiness in the years ahead.

The Derelict Property Tax will encourage owners to take action on neglected and unused sites. Let's get these properties back into use and transformed into the homes our communities so badly need.
