> French President Emmanuel Macron begins a two-day visit to Britain on Wednesday and will view the landmark Bayeux Tapestry exhibition with King Charles III. Prime Minister Andy Burnham called the loan of the tapestry, which depicts the Norman conquest of England in 1066, a strong example of French-British cooperation after Brexit.
