The controversial human rights record of Gulf states should not be a bar to increased post-Brexit trade with them, Theresa May has said ahead of a high-profile visit to the Middle East.

Ms May will be the first British Prime Minister, and first woman, to attend the Gulf Co-operation Council summit during a two-day trip to Bahrain.

With her hosts having been sharply criticised for the way they suppressed protests during the Arab Spring, Ms May insisted closer ties will allow the UK greater influence in pushing its values.

Speaking ahead of the visit, the Prime Minister said she wants to open a new post-Brexit chapter in relations with the Gulf.
