Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Lefroy (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 October 2019. It occurred during Debate on Leaving the EU: Integrated Foreign Policy.
Leaving the EU: Integrated Foreign Policy
Does my hon. Friend agree that one of the problems that we face in integration and influence is that our senior leaders travel far too little in places of importance, such as the whole of the African continent? In the time in which President Macron has visited the African continent more than 10 times, our Prime Minister has been able to visit only once. It was the first time a Prime Minister has visited Kenya—one of our strongest allies—since the days of Margaret Thatcher.
