Rishi Sunak is set to hold face-to-face talks with Nicola Sturgeon tomorrow as he heads to Scotland in a bid to counter her independence push.
The Prime Minister is travelling north of the border on Thursday for a two-day trip.
Mr Sunak is planning to hold discussions with the Scottish First Minister during the visits, the Telegraph reports.
The pair are expected to meet on Thursday but exact timings could yet be changed.
During his trip, the PM will also announce the locations of two new “green” freeports, expected to be near Inverness and Edinburgh, in an attempt to highlight the benefits of Scotland being part of the UK.
Mr Sunak’s approach is a stark contrast to that of his predecessor Liz Truss.
The Prime Minister spoke to the SNP leader on his first day in No 10, while Ms Truss did not talk to Ms Sturgeon once during her fleeting premiership.
