Boris Johnson has visited a historic shipyard on the day its reopening was announced under new ownership.
Appledore Shipyard in Devon was bought by InfraStrata, the firm which also owns Belfast's Harland & Wolff (H&W), in a £7 million deal.
During his visit the prime minister met with apprentices and also took the chance to show off his painting skills.
