Prime Minister Keir Starmer is in Liverpool today ahead of a crucial meeting this evening. Sir Keir will meet with the Irish premier in Liverpool this evening for the first of a series of annual UK-Ireland summits.
The Prime Minister and Taoiseach Micheal Martin will co-host a reception this evening (Wednesday), which is designed to celebrate cultural links between the UK and Ireland. It comes after both governments signalled a desire for a “reset” in relations, which had been put under strain throughout Brexit and the previous Conservative government’s laws to deal with legacy issues of the Troubles in Northern Ireland.
The two leaders will also host a round table with businesses across the tech, energy, construction and manufacturing sectors – which have operations on both sides of the Irish Sea – on Thursday morning.
They are expected to agree what is being described as a “wide-ranging programme of new and enhanced strategic co-operation” between Ireland and the UK, to be taken forward by both governments through to 2030.
Mr Martin said: “This summit is one of the most significant bilateral engagements between the British and Irish Governments in a generation and shows the resolve of Prime Minister Keir Starmer and I to put in place the building blocks to bring strategic co-operation between our two countries to a new level.
“I am keen now that we work in partnership on a structured and ongoing basis to realise the full potential of the British-Irish relationship across a comprehensive programme of co-operation, including on infrastructure delivery, opportunities for SMEs, marine planning, energy, education and culture.”
Mr Martin will be joined by Ireland’s deputy premier Simon Harris, who is also the country’s defence and foreign affairs minister for the summit plenary meeting later on Thursday. The Prime Minister previously met Mr Harris in Dublin when he held the position of taoiseach last year.
The Irish delegation also includes Education Minister Helen McEntee, Climate, Energy and Transport Minister Darragh O’Brien, and Justice and Home Affairs Minister Jim O’Callaghan.

We do not take money from any political parties. We do not endorse In_dia’s ruling party BJP and In_dia’s Prime Minister’s position on keeping In_dia a closed market, ambiguous economy, and keeping India as a heavy taxing country so no one from outside world wants to do business here. It’s like denying In_dia its right in the world…
BJP Government also discourages small and local media, coming down on them heavily regulating and using lawful actions along with soft threats from demented bureaucrat extremists and other extremist groups. On one hand, the mainstream media in In_dia is getting rich and on other hand the local small media is being strangulated. So if not automated or required, We do not willfully publish any content from In_dia or pertaining to that country.
