The Prime Minister Theresa May will visit Northern Ireland tomorrow.

She's due to  meet local businesses as she tries to find alternative arrangements for the Irish border after Brexit. 

Earlier today she held discussions with "leave" and "remain" supporting Conservative MPs today.

Meanwhile, Labour's shadow Brexit Secretary, Sir Kier Starmer, says his party accepts that a backstop within the Withdrawal Agreement  - is inevitable.

He's been critical of the backstop in the past and was speaking in Belfast after meeting local political representatives this morning.

Mr.Starmer's comments appear to fly in the face of those held by his party leader Jeremy Corbyn who's among the MPs to call for the backstop to be scrapped.
