By sending us your video footage/photographs/audio you agree we can broadcast, publish and edit the material.Ms Truss has taken aim at businesses that expect bailouts, and the government's that provide them, expressing a fear that we are"turning into social democracies".
She is calling on the world to"get real about the threat from authoritarian regimes and their unwitting allies in the anti-growth movement" if we are to be"match fit to take on China and to take on the whole concept of state capitalism"."The disease is ever larger government. Ms Truss is saying firstly that we should fast track Ukraine's membership of NATO and that UK and US should both supply fighter jets.She says that she would like to see Japan and Canada joining the AUKUS security pact, recently signed between the US, UK, and Australia.
Then-prime minister Tony Blair was seen buying an ice cream for his chancellor, Gordon Brown, while out and about campaigning in Gillingham, Kent.But in truth, the stunt was a paltry sticking plaster. That's why the heart of this presidential trip is in Ireland, and the treacly welcome on the visit to this side of the Atlantic is reserved for Leo Varadkar, the Irish PM.
Number 10 achieved a morning with the president which wowed nationalists, did not aggravate the DUP and presented a picture of a better Northern Ireland if the parties can agree to work together.

"Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, like he is so often is, was incredibly conciliatory and emollient in welcoming the fact that Joe Biden is here in Northern Ireland, saying he always would be welcome here. "That speaks to the division in the DUP between those who are slightly more inclined to maybe, in time, think again about restarting power sharing in Stormont, even if there is a Sinn Fein first minister.
"I think it's a question of whether an imperfect, but better deal works for some of them, or whether there is just a large minority in the DUP who decide that it won't. On 22 February, DCI Caldwell was shot multiple times while he was packing footballs into his car alongside his son after a youth training session at Omagh Youthsport.
Mr Hancock, who was elected as a Conservative MP but currently sits as an independent, is being investigated for"lobbying the Commissioner in a manner calculated or intended to influence his consideration of whether a breach of the Code of Conduct has occurred". Asked just moments ago by Sky News if his feelings had changed after the president's speech, Sir Jeffrey Donaldson said: "No."
