Prime Minister Andy Burnham says no nation will be left behind after meeting Scotland's John Swinney and Wales's Rhun ap Iorwerth in Glasgow. At the first National Economic Council for the nations, leaders discussed giving regions more control over employment support and reindustrialisation funding. Burnham again ruled out independence referendums, while Swinney called the talks a welcome start. Northern Ireland sent only officials to Glasgow.
