PRIME minister Sir Keir Starmer is to meet North East Mayor Kim McGuiness and her counterparts around the country today to discuss the impact of recent trade agreements with India, the US and Europe.

The government said the deals would boost the region’s automotive and agricultural sectors and create the conditions for major employers such as Nissan, Hitachi and Caterpillar to grow.

The prime minister will meet English mayors and leaders from the devolved governments at a meeting of the Council of Nations and Regions in London today and challenge them to use the trade deals to drive economic growth in their local areas.

HEALTHY START

January is the right time for a reset. Nothing extreme, just food to help you feel good. Think fresh flavours, colourful plates and meals as nourishing as they are comforting. Soothing soups, vibrant salads and a spicy curry are on my menu plus, of course, the odd selection box chocolate which needs eating up!
