    From today's Telegraph.


    Theresa May will host Emmanuel Macron at a summit at the Sandhurst military academy on Thursday, and as is customary on these occasions, there will be plenty of bilateral bonhomie on display as both sides. The pair will reaffirm the Franco-British relationship focusing on areas of defence, space technology, security, education and immigration.

    Only the last of these will provide any hint of piquancy, since France is asking the UK to sign an additional protocol to the 2003 Le Touquet Accords that manage the Calais border which will probably see the UK accept more asylum seekers and pay more cash. That has caused a predictable kerfuffle, but the truth is that Mr Macron has moved a long way from his campaign promise to rip up and renegotiate the Le Touquet agreements and the additional sums involved - “tens of millions of euros” - are peanuts, relatively speaking.
