The Prime Minister says Britain and France are at the highest level of bilateral co-operation since World War Two.

David Cameron and French President Nicolas Sarkozy have met in Paris to discuss military agreements and sign a new deal to co-operate on nuclear energy - which will help pave the way for the construction of a new generation of power plants in Britain - including the controversial new reactor at Hinkley Point.

Deals between companies in the UK and France, worth 500 million pounds, will create more than 1-thousand 500 jobs.
