Council Of The European Union: Statement By President Donald Tusk On The Draft Guidelines On The Framework For The Future Relationship With The UK

Date 07/03/2018

Good afternoon. I am very happy to be back in Luxembourg. And very happy to be here with my colleague and good friend, Prime Minister Bettel, to discuss the agenda of the March European Council.

Two hours ago, I sent the EU27 Member States my draft guidelines for our relations with the UK after Brexit. I'm here in Luxembourg to consult the Prime Minister on these guidelines that I hope will be adopted at our European Council in March. It is not a coincidence that once again I start my consultations ahead of a European Council meeting here in Luxembourg with Prime Minister Bettel. I really value your advice - always very constructive and responsible.

The UK Chancellor Of The Exchequer, Philip Hammond's Speech On Financial Services At HSBC

Date 07/03/2018

It’s great to be here in Canary Wharf, and I am grateful to HSBC for hosting me.

…when, in fact, of course it is a vibrant part of the economy across the length and breadth of Britain…

…with over two-thirds of financial services jobs outside London…

… and significant financial services hubs in Edinburgh, Leeds, Bristol, Belfast, Birmingham and Bournemouth, to name but a few.

Date 07/03/2018

Good morning everyone, it really is a pleasure for me to be with you today.

It’s also good to have an excuse to use my fluent Spanish. It’s been a while since I’ve used it, so if you notice any errors in pronunciation: I apologise.
