Theresa May held talks with Irish premier Leo Varadkar in another round of Brexit diplomacy on Friday.
After spending the week in Northern Ireland and Brussels, the Prime Minister jetted to Dublin in a further bid to resolve the Irish backstop dispute, which remains the key stumbling block to a Brexit agreement.
Ahead of Mrs May's meeting with Mr Varadkar over dinner, attorney general Geoffrey Cox also held talks in the Irish capital with his counterpart Seamus Woulfe.
Downing Street also said ministers are looking "with interest" at a letter from Jeremy Corbyn setting out the terms on which Labour would support a deal in Parliament, in a move which prompted outcry from Labour Remainers who want a second referendum.
