“I am now leaving on a historic visit to Africa. This visit will begin with a summit meeting with leaders from seven African countries who are coming especially to Entebbe, Uganda for this meeting, to welcome a Prime Minister of Israel for the first time in decades on African soil.
Coming on a journey like this is also very important from diplomatic, economic and security perspectives and I am pleased that Israel is going back to Africa in a big way. We are opening Africa to Israel again. This visit will also include a moving meeting at Entebbe, where the great rescue operation was carried out. Also attending will be soldiers who participated in the operation as well as some of those who were rescued.
All Africa is excited by this visit and I am very excited as well.”

British FM : Corporation tax to drop to 15 %
The outcome of the EU referendum has brought various groups working in UK or European nations are in state of uncertainty,the social structure of easy biz of Britain and rest of EU nations are in tight spots and most of the EU citizen are in state of fission but will the EU bonding shall play significant role in keeping the EU as united Lot or divided front.British FM : UK corporation tax to drop to 15 %.This is the Latest after the Brexit. Earlier drop of Corporate tax cut to 17% in year 2017 .Details further awaited for drop now to 25%, UK now divided in all forms ,The Regions. The Caste Divisions, Old and Young, Poor and Rich, UK in holistic chaos and find itself in Social Limbo.
Further, Shadow chancellor John McDonnell has described George Osborne’s proposal to cut corporation tax from 20% to 15% as “counter-productive”. He told BBC Breakfast the tax cut would not create the business investment that the UK needed. He said it was “not constructive” to be “offering up Britain as a tax haven” to Europe and warned this could hit taxpayers. Mr McDonnell accused the chancellor of being “chaotic” by bringing in “panic tax cuts” and instead called for a “steady strategy”. He also warned that it was not the right way to open negotiations to get the best deal in Europe. “I don’t think it sends the right message to those countries that wish to establish a co-operative relationship with us in the future, so that we get some of the benefits we had in the EU, even though we’re outside of it.”
Large areas of central London were brought to a standstill Saturday as thousands of demonstrators converged on the capital to protest about the outcome of the EU referendum.
The peaceful march and rally came in the wake of a petition to parliament which by Saturday had exceeded 4 million signatures calling for a second referendum. It is estimated that around 40,000 people took part in the march.
With people waving pro-Europe banners, the “March for Europe” event took place even though the Leave camp won the June 23 referendum by 51.9 percent to 48.1 percent. One banner carried the message “Stay Calm but Remain…Outraged” while another had the message “We Love EU”.
Starting from Park Lane in Central London, the procession stretched for more than three kilometers as it made its way towards Parliament Square, close to the seat of the British Parliament.
One of the organisers of the London march, Keiran MacDermott, said protesters want to stop the British government from triggering the mechanism that starts the EU withdrawal process, making a Brexit irreversible.
Stand-up comedian and satirist Mark Thomas said he helped organise the march to “address his anger, frustration and need to do something.”
He said: “We would accept the result of the referendum if it was fought on a level playing field. But it was full of misinformation and people need to do something with their frustration.”
With the House of Commons and Big Ben as a backdrop, speakers from different political parties heard pleas about the impact of the emerging “divorce” from theEuropean Union.
Rock band icon Bob Geldorf, who famously helped raise millions of pounds for starving people in Africa with a desperate plea for help, was among the speakers Saturday.
He urged people “to take to the streets and speak to their neighbors” to stop Britain from leaving the EU.
Politicians and officials within the Palace of Westminster have already started laying the foundations for Britain’s exit by establishing various working groups to discuss future moves in the long process.
In the referendum, London was out of step with the rest of England where the vast majority of people backed the Leave camp. Wales also was a strong supporter of Brexit, with both Scotland and Northern Ireland voting Remain. Around 60 percent of Londoners voted for remain.
Social media sites went into overdrive, with both sides engaged in verbal clashes. One person wrote: “I agree we have a democratic right to protest, but I don’t see how ‘March for Europe’ is going to work. Leave won in a democratic vote.”
