Chief minister to meet with PM over new EU deal
BBCJersey's chief minister will visit Downing Street on Monday night for a meeting about the UK's new deal with the European Union.
It comes after UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer announced the government had struck a post-Brexit agreement which would include terms for areas such as fishing rights, trade and defence.
Lyndon Farnham said: "We hope to reaffirm our priorities at the highest level today, to the prime minister, members of his cabinet and other EU partners.
"Detail surrounding agricultural trade and youth mobility with our European neighbours will be of particular interest to us, and we will continue to input into those discussions in the coming weeks."
Assistant Chief Minister Ian Gorst added that the event was "an important opportunity to ensure Jersey's voice is heard by the UK government and the European Union as they discuss their relationship".
EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen will be at the meeting too.
