.Kemi Badenoch it’s disgraceful you are cheerleading another country for detaining and deporting two British MPs. Do you say the same about Tory MPs banned from China? This government will continue to stand up for the rights of our MPs to speak their mind, whatever their party.

It is a huge honour to support their Majesties the King and Queen on their first State Visit to Italy. We have deep cultural connections and valuable trade, sustainability and defence partnerships with Italy. This week we are strengthening these bonds.

Through this new ÂŁ450m package of military support, we are putting Ukraine in the strongest position to secure a just and lasting peace. We stand with Ukraine, in defence of its freedom and in the pursuit of peace.

I extend my warmest wishes to Jewish communities in Tottenham, across the UK, and worldwide as they prepare to celebrate Passover. This festival of freedom and remembrance carries powerful messages that resonate with us all.

Shocking reports are emerging from El Fasher, Darfur, where indiscriminate RSF attacks have killed civilians, including aid workers. This gives added urgency to Tuesday's Sudan Conference in London with international partners. All sides must commit to protection of civilians.

Israel’s attacks on medical facilities have comprehensively degraded access to healthcare in Gaza. Al-Ahli Hospital has been attacked repeatedly since the conflict began. These deplorable attacks must end. Diplomacy not more bloodshed is how we will achieve a lasting peace.

I am horrified by Russia’s barbaric strike in Sumy, killing people - including children - going to church on Palm Sunday . The UK is committed to protecting Ukraine from these inhumane attacks, with £450m in new funding last week. Putin must agree to an immediate ceasefire.

“What’s happening in Sudan is beyond a war. It’s a campaign of atrocities centred around violating women and girls.”    Hala Al-Karib is an advocate for women’s rights in Sudan.    This week the UK is co-hosting a conference to agree steps to end the war in Sudan and get aid to

The UK is determined to put Ukraine in the best position to secure a just and lasting peace. The latest £752m in funding, to be repaid by profits generated on sanctioned assets, will strengthen Ukraine’s defence and show Russia that it cannot outlast our collective resolve.

The war in Sudan has caused the world’s worst humanitarian crisis. Millions are in turmoil. Innocent civilians are in desperate fear for their safety. I'm bringing together the international community to end the violence and improve humanitarian access.

The UK-Kenya partnership is driving growth and supporting regional security. Alongside Musalia W Mudavadi I launched the UK-Kenya Strategic Partnership refresh and discussed how we can work together to push for an end to the fighting in Sudan. #GoFarGoTogether

For lasting peace in Sudan, there must be stability. Innocent civilians should not be forced to flee their homes. Meeting with Amb. Bankole Adeoye and Filippo Grandi, I discussed protecting refugees fleeing the fighting and working with the African Union for a stable Sudan.

We are pushing for peace in Sudan.   This is one of the greatest humanitarian crises of our time and millions of people are suffering.   Sudan needs a ceasefire and a political process that empowers the Sudanese people to shape their own future.   The London Sudan Conference is a

Children should never be pawns of war. In 2024 I spoke to Ukrainian children who had been forcibly deported by Russia, but were later returned to their families. There can be no lasting or just peace unless Russia returns the Ukrainian children it has abducted. #BringKidsBack

We are working hard with allies to secure a lasting peace in Ukraine. Russia must agree to an immediate, full and unconditional ceasefire as Ukraine has done. We also spoke about how we deliver Middle East stability and address Iran's nuclear escalation.

In a volatile world, unity is our strength. Today's meetings with France, US, Ukraine, and Germany underscores our shared commitment to global security. We must see a just and lasting peace in Ukraine and stability in the Middle East.

This Good Friday, let us remember all those suffering around the world. At this challenging time, compassion and forgiveness - as shown by Jesus on the Cross - are more important than ever.
