Deeply saddened to hear of the death of His Holiness Pope Francis. His tireless efforts to promote a world that is fairer for all will leave a lasting legacy. On behalf of the people of the United Kingdom, I share my sincerest condolences to the whole Catholic Church.

Brilliant visit to Songwe Rare Earth site that 🇬🇧 listed Mkango Resources #MKA is developing. Exports and tax revenues mining will make huge contribution to Malawian economy if well managed. Lots to do for all stakeholders to make this vision a reality!

Media freedom: always important but never more so than in an election year. On #WPFD2025 I’m proud to have stood up for free and robust media 💪

"My thoughts are with those who've been affected by the tragic plane crash in India this morning. "The FCDO is working urgently with local authorities to support British nationals and their families and has stood up a crisis team in both Delhi and London." – David Lammy
