Theresa May touches down in Cape Town for three-day Africa trip


Recommended Posts

THERESA May has touched down in Cape Town this morning for a three-day trip to boost post-Brexit trade in Britain.

The Prime Minister will meet with the South African President Cyril Rampaphosa today for talks and present him with the ship's bell from the SS Mendi, which sank off the cost of Britain in 1917 - costing 600 South African lives.

She will also make a speech later pledging to rip up UK aid rules to make it "unashamed" benefit British firms.

The Prime Minister wants to spend Britain’s £13.9billion development budget giving companies greater confidence to invest in Africa as Britain expands its global outlook after Brexit.

In a speech in Cape Town today, Mrs May will vow pledge to divert British taxpayer handouts to the continent and use it instead to roll the pitch for the UK to become the world’s “number one investor in Africa” by 2022 - overtaking the US.

The money would be diverted from charities and NGOs to help states tackle corruption and invest in infrastructure and security.

As part of the visit, the first major trip since unveiling her soft-Brexit Chequers deal, the PM will also visit Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela spent 27 years in jail.

And she will take two dozen business chiefs with her in a bid to whip up a slew of high investment deals.

Speaking as she touched down this morning, she turned her attention to Brexit, insisting that No Deal would "not be the end of the world".

Mrs May dismissed Chancellor Philip Hammond's doomsday warnings as a "work in progress."

And she stressed it was important to let Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab unveil the Government's contingency plans for crashing out of the EU without a trade deal in place.

Last Wednesday Mr Hammond sparked uproar from fellow ministers and Tory MPs after publishing a doom-laden warning that Britain would face an ÂŁ80 billion hike in borrowing in a No Deal scenario on the same day Mr Raab set out the first tranche of Whitehall emergency plans.

But speaking for the first time on the row, Mrs May sided with Mr Raab in the latest Cabinet split and echoed claims from the head of the WTO that No Deal "would not be a walk in the park, but it wouldn't be the end of the world."
