The new British prime minister said he was seeking an "immediate reset" of the relationship between the Westminster Government and devolved nations as he embarks on a tour of Britain.

Sir Keir Starmer insisted "respect" would be the key ingredient in the bond between the new UK administration and its Northern Irish, Scottish and Welsh counterparts.
