Nicola Sturgeon and Theresa May set for Downing Street talks

Nicola Sturgeon and Theresa May will hold talks in Downing Street tomorrow in a bid to break the deadlock over Brexit legislation.

The meeting will be the first between the two leaders since March.

Talks between the UK and Scottish governments are continuing in a bid to avoid a constitutional crisis over powers returning from the EU after Brexit. The SNP says plans to have control of 111 responsibilities in devolved areas handed to Westminster before being devolved represents a "power grab".

The First Minister and Prime Minister may also discuss their plans to deal with growing concern over a culture of sexual harassment at both Holyrood and Westminster.
