Theresa May has spoken with Donald Trump to agree the need for "swift"
measures to tackle the nuclear threat of North Korea.

The Prime Minister spoke with Mr Trump in a phone call after which they
urged China to do all in its power to deter the rogue state from further provocation.

It comes after ministers were warned during their regular Cabinet meeting
that Kim Jong-un's nuclear weapons are stationed closer to London than
they are to Los Angeles.

Following the trans-Atlantic call, a Downing Street spokesman said: "Ms
May said Britain would work with the US and international partners to
continue to exert economic pressure on North Korea through further
measures including sanctions.

"The Prime Minister noted the importance of the UN Security Council
continuing to present a strong and unified international voice by reaching swift agreement on new measures.

"The Prime Minister said she would also work with EU leaders on further measures the EU could take to pressure the North Korean regime."

The spokesman also said: "The Prime Minister and the President agreed on
the key role which China has to play, and that it was important they used
all the leverage they had to ensure North Korea stopped conducting these illegal acts so that we could ensure the security and safety of nations in
the region."

Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson also told MPs China needed to try and end
the stand off on the Korean peninsula.

He said: "China, which accounts for 90 per cent of North Korea's overseas trade, has a unique ability to influence the regime and the House can take heart from the fact that Beijing voted in favour of the latest sanctions resolution and condemned Pyongyang's actions in the most unsparing terms.

"I call on China to use all of its leverage to ensure a peaceful
settlement of this grave crisis."

Earlier in the day Ms May, Mr Johnson and other cabinet ministers met to discuss the on-gong situation, during which time they were warned in a
briefing that Pyong Yang is closer to London than Los Angeles.

### - she only talked with trumpy about putting more pressure on china??

riiiiight... maybe they also chatted about exchanging xmas presents too!

get a kinda sinking feeling from this, don't you?

probably phoned to tell her what's just about to happen more likely!

what to... expect?

("can't stop what's coming" keeps ringing in my ears - thanks chris!
lol...)

best guess is... the next icbm ding-dong launches (possibly on the 9th
sept next if not sooner) they's gonna shoot it down (or something) to see
what happens? - something more 'active' anyway than nothing, as before? -
gonna actually take a risk if/when... cued?

'hopefully' only that anyway! although even only that 'could' kick it all
off depending on how dip-shit reacts?

good job i don't sleep regularly anymore heh, else i'd maybe start getting
get a bit restless around now - and 'coz 'anything' could happen in the
next half hour!
