Brown meeting Palestinian leader

Gordon Brown is meeting Mr Fayyad in Downing Street

Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad is holding talks with Gordon Brown in Downing Street ahead of meetings with financiers in the City of London.

Mr Fayyad told the BBC ahead of the meeting in No 10 "the moment has not gone" for there to be a two-state solution in the Middle East.

He said to look for another concept would be "the wrong way to go".

The visit comes at the start of a two-day conference at which Mr Fayyad will seek to woo UK investors.
