Leaders from across the United Kingdom are to meet for the first time since the resignation of Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
They will gather in Guernsey on Friday as part of the 37th British-Irish Council Summit and plan to discuss the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, climate change, support for the people of Ukraine, and the Northern Ireland Protocol. The summit is the first meeting between the heads of state, including the First Ministers of Wales and Scotland, chief ministers, and the Irish Taoiseach, since Mr Johnson agreed to step down.
Developments in Westminster will also be on the agenda as they discuss the political situation in each nation. Michael Gove was due to represent the UK Government but was sacked on Wednesday, causing confusion over who would go in his place.
