Theresa May in talks with Chinese president Xi Jinping

Theresa May has met President Xi Jinping for talks on the second day of her visit to China. At a joint press conference with Mr Xi, Mrs May said Britain and China were enjoying a "golden era" in their relationship. And she wanted to "take further forward the global strategic partnership that we have established".

The UK prime minister is in China at the head of a 50-strong business delegation. With Mrs May's discussions with Premier Li Keqiang on Wednesday largely given over to trade and Brexit, the talks with Mr Xi were due to focus on global issues, including North Korea's nuclear ambitions.
