Alarming news. The The Donkey Sanctuary in is in danger of closing due to financial difficulties. I am due to meet with the CEO this week as this decision is not yet final, and there is still potential to save this jewel in our Royal Town’s Crown.

Utterly appalled by the killing in South Darfur 🇸🇩 of two ICRC staff, and injuring of three more. Aid workers are not targets. Those responsible for this heinous act must be held to account.

As conflict escalates in El Fasher, the Sudanese Armed Forces & Rapid Support Forces demonstrate their disregard for human life.

The RSF and SAF must de-escalate, protect civilians, respect international humanitarian law, & spare Sudan from their wilful destruction and carnage.

And there it is: 1,900 reasons to vote for Andy Street in tomorrow’s election. Don’t let Labour’s financial incompetence bankrupt our region, like it did Birmingham, where Council Tax is going up 21%. Andy delivers results - for the right price - without charging a penny in tax.

Corruption undermines democracy and slows down development.

🇬🇧 is fighting corruption around the world and today we're sanctioning those involved in theft from some of the poorest communities in Uganda.

A pleasure to address the Development Committee. As the World Bank turns 80, it must focus on impact, speed and agility.

The UK will play its part through an increased pledge & a £100 million hybrid capital contribution that increases IBRD lending by £1billion

Great to speak to Ajay Banga and pleased to see the ambition of the World Bank reforms.

We discussed the delivery of a strong replenishment of IDA, a bigger IBRD, and the importance of private capital mobilisation to deliver the finance needed in developing countries

Obstruction of humanitarian access by the warring parties is leading to people starving in Sudan. 1 year since the conflict began, the UK has imposed fresh sanctions to freeze assets and limit financial freedoms of those who help to support it.
