London, July 18

British PM Keir Starmer welcomed leaders from the European Union to Oxfordshire in south-east England to initiate a “reset” with the 27-member economic bloc, which the UK is no longer a member of since a referendum in favour of leaving it in 2016.

At a meeting of the European Political Community (EPC) in Blenheim Palace, Starmer sought to set a new direction for his Labour Party government’s post-Brexit ties with Europe to align on issues such as illegal migration and the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

He reiterated the “unworkable” scheme of deporting illegal migrants to Rwanda had been “scrapped” and that the UK will never withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
