The UK has lost a good friend. President Carter's commitment to public service & human rights was inspirational. I have seen for myself how his work for Habitat for Humanity transformed lives. Through the excellent The Carter Center his impact on America & the world continues.

I share the Foreign Secretary' sadness at the dreadful events in New Orleans. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims and their families. I also offer the UK’s thanks to the US authorities who have worked with our teams to support the family of the British national killed.

President Jimmy Carter was an exceptional leader whose tireless campaigns for peace & social justice were valued by the UK & the world. It was a privilege to celebrate his life & legacy at the National Cathedral in DC alongside HRH the Duke of Edinburgh & former PM Gordon Brown.
