French President Emmanuel Macron comes to Britain next week – the first foreign leader to set first on UK soil since the coronavirus lockdown.

He arrives in London on Thursday to mark the 80th anniversary of “Gaulle's Appel” – the famous speech given by Charles de Gaulle, the leader of the Free French Forces, in 1940.

He addressed the French people from London after the fall of France – and declared the war for France was not yet over. Gaulle's Appeal is widely considered to be the origin of the French Resistance to the German occupation during the Second World War.

Mr Macron is due to attend commemorations at Clarence House with Prince Charles, who is currently self-isolating at Birkhall, Aberdeenshire.
