A victory that was hard fought and hard won. A victory that involved every part of society. 80 years on, we salute the extraordinary generation that liberated our continent and ensured that we, the generations that followed, can continue to live in peace. #VEDay80

One of the many unusual & quirky British traditions - the annual cheese rolling race. Be warned, this one can be more dangerous than it sounds! bbc.co.uk/news/live/cd0l…

It’s National Hug Your Cat Day! That might be a ‘national day’ too far, but it gives me an excuse to post a pic of my lovely cat looking regal. Sadly he’s still living his best life in Cyprus, but we had a video call (well, he ignored me while I tried to talk to him)

Free media is critical, particularly in conflict zones where information & truth can be harder to find. It’s even more important today, where disinformation is used to mislead & manipulate, and where journalists are threatened in places we had thought were safe

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine doesn’t just harm Ukraine, undermine the principle of sovereignty & threaten European & global security - it is harming Russians too. Russia started this war, and Russia can choose to end it with an unconditional ceasefire as a first step

Stability in the Middle East is vital for global security. I’m concerned to see reports of strikes overnight. Further escalation is a serious threat to peace & stability in the region and in no one’s interest. This is a dangerous moment & I urge all parties to show restraint.

Stability in the Middle East is essential for global security. The UK did not participate in the strikes overnight, and we are engaging with partners to urge de-escalation.

🌍 You might not see climate change – but you can feel it. From floods to failed crops, the signs are all around us. The UK's climate envoy Rachel Kyte kicks off #LCAW2025 by busting the myth that fossil fuels don’t impact us. #GoFarGoTogether

The news is full of conflict and crisis, all of which is important. But we cannot forget the conflict in Ukraine, and their brave fight against invasion and in defence of international law

Global challenges are becoming increasingly complex and interconnected. That’s why, at the Fourth Financing for Development Conference this week, we’re setting out a new vision for how we can collectively use finance to drive global progress on development.

The UK is committed to a two-state solution - the only viable path to a just and lasting peace. Continued settlement expansion, and Israeli government actions disrupting the occupied West Bank's economy threaten this prospect. My remarks in the Westminster Hall debate today ⬇️
