Now is the time to bring an end to the terrible war in Gaza, starting with an immediate humanitarian ceasefire and an immediate and unconditional release of all hostages.
It is high time for the parties to show the political courage and political will to finally reach a deal.

A decision I strongly backed in Govt & will continue to make the case that
#UNRWA
is the backbone to the aid operation in Gaza & a lifeline for Palestinians across the Occupied Territories as well as in neighbouring countries. The UK 🇬🇧 must restart

We've seen MPs swearing allegiance to the King using Cornish and Doric; holy books from the Koran to Gaelic and Hebrew Bible.
This is quiet. Unfussy. But that's why the UK can claim to be the most successful multi-faith democracy in the world.

A passionate belief of mine as proud Brit has always been, that our incredible United Kingdom is defined by the strength of our rich diversity - the NHS is a shining example.
200 nationalities, one NHS.
Huge thanks to everyone who has dedicated their lives to caring for others.

As wars rage around the world including in Europe once again -today is the 29th anniversary of the genocide of 8000+ Bosnian Muslims in Srebrenica -I recall visiting

Today is

Memorial Day which marks the 29th anniversary of the Bosnian genocide in which over 8,000 Muslim men and boys were murdered in the space of just a few days and dumped in mass graves. To this day, a significant number of the victims' remains are still missing.

Hurricane Beryl has caused devastating damage across the Caribbean. I'm in touch with leaders in the region to offer UK assistance and my thoughts are with those affected.
I urge all British nationals in the area to follow our travel advice and that of the local authorities.
