Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his British counterpart Boris Johnson shook hands in front of 10 Downing Street on Thursday.
The Israeli leader was in London on a visit that had not been briefed beforehand by either country.
“We have the challenge of Iran’s aggression and terrorism, and I’d like to talk to you about how we can work together to counter these things for the benefit of peace,” Netanyahu told Johnson upon his arrival at 10 Downing Street.
Netanyahu will also meet US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper while in London, the prime minister’s office said.
US Vice President Mike Pence also met with Johson in Downing Street on Thursday.
Netanyahu was set to go to India this week but cancelled citing commitments concerning Israel’s upcoming general elections.

nowadays due to Muslims having so much power as well as their lackeys like Corbyn, the Israeli PM must come to London with its Muslim mayor like a criminal, unannounced. once omar is in power this will be the case in the US as well.
As a Prime Minister who has clearly lost his majority, I would not gamble too much on him continuing as Prime Minister. Until recently he would have been fired but they made it a bit harder for him to be fired, but the fact he doesn’t control the House of Commons suggests his long term job prospect is poor. AND, going out of the way to befriend will make the next Prime Minister less than friendly expecially if he is from a party now in opposition.
Akuperma-
I’m not sure you understand what is going on in the UK.
Johnson may have lost his majority as members of his party won’t vote in favour of a no deal Brexit. However his coalition with the DUP still exists and he maintains his party majority with regards to matters unrelated to Brexit.
However, he has no fear of being “fired”, quite the opposite, he’s tried to call for a snap election as the opposition are far less popular then he is and if elections were held today, he’d likely regain full control of parliament. The opposition blocked his request for another election.
