We welcome David Lammy as the new Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Affairs.

Whatever your politics, the appointment of the first ever female Chancellor of the Exchequer is a really significant (and long overdue) moment. And especially inspiring for all the women working in HM Treasury Proud to have been part of it

Change begins now.

The children of Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital gave me this last year. It hangs in my office.   We will call out Russia's cowardly and depraved attack on the hospital last night in the Security Council. As David Lammy said: we will hold those responsible for this war to account.

The UK is proud to provide £1.8million for UXO clearance in Laos for 2024-25, enabling @MAG and @HALOTrust to save lives and return land to communities.   Clearance teams from both organisations shared their experiences with Foreign Secretary David Lammy on his visit to Laos.

Antimicrobial Resistance is a threat to modern medicine that kills over 1.2 million people each year.   During his visit to Laos, Foreign Secretary David Lammy saw how UK funding enables the The Fleming Fund to generate, share and use data to improve antimicrobial use.
