From today the UK is at the forefront of clamping down on people smugglers. The world’s first sanction regime dedicated to targeting people smuggling will target the assets of anyone complicit – including financiers and small boat sellers - and ban them from entering Britain.

The IDF has killed starving Palestinian civilians trying to get aid. Settler terrorism and talk of imposing the illegal E1 settlement plan are flagrant attempts to prevent a Palestinian state. There is no justification for this. A two-state solution is the only path to peace.

What the Shadow Home Secretary fails to mention here is that of the 1,316 decline in officer numbers since 31 March 2024, 94% of them were cut by June of last year. This was under the previous Government - when he was the Policing Minister.

This terrible conflict in Gaza must end.

Concerned that Reform wants to house convicted criminals on MOD sites. Where will these be? Lincoln fought off one attempt to use RAF Scampton for a mad plan. We will do it again if Nigel Farage gets tempted to look our way.

The Red Arrows completed the world’s first aerobatic display with sustainable fuels on day one of the #RIAT. At the event, the #RedArrows’ are using a blend of Sustainable Aviation Fuel for propulsion and Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil to produce the team’s trademark vapour trails.

I welcome the news that the Government of DRC, through Qatari mediation, have agreed a Declaration of Principles with Alliance Fleuve Congo/M23. This is an important step towards peace.

Horrified by the violence in Southern Syria. A sustainable ceasefire is vital. I spoke to Syrian Foreign Minister @AsaadHshaibani yesterday as part of UK efforts to urge a peaceful resolution. We want to see the fighting ended, civilians protected and humanitarian access…

Birchwood West, one of just 25 Trailblazer Neighbourhoods, set to receive up to £20m over 10 years from the Government to improve the area & opportunities. Today I walked Birchwood with councillors, residents & Baroness Hilary Armstrong. A huge opportunity. let’s make it count!

I've spent a very warm morning walking around Birchwood with @HFalconerMP and many of the city leaders, talking about how the £20m it's been awarded could be used to transform the area. Full story to follow

Deeply concerned by the Israeli Civil Administration’s plan to revive the E1 settlement programme. If implemented, this would critically undermine a future Palestinian state and the path to a two-state solution - crushing the hopes of millions who wish for peace.

Russian spies are trying to destabilise Europe, undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty and threaten the safety of British citizens. Today we are exposing this activity and sanctioning those responsible. Protecting the UK from harm is fundamental to this government’s Plan for Change.

The UK and Tunisia are committed to strengthening our partnership across trade, education, and tackling organised immigration crime. Yesterday, I co-chaired the UK Tunisia Association Council alongside Secretary of State Ben Ayed to enhance our bilateral cooperation 🇬🇧🇹🇳

In an exclusive interview with @TapNewsAgency, UK Minister for the Middle East and North Africa, @HFalconerMP emphasised that “enhancing bilateral trade and boosting mutual economic growth continues to be at the top of our shared priorities". tap.info.tn/en/Portal-Top-…

I was heartbroken to hear about the tragic fire in Kut last night. My deepest condolences go out to the families who lost loved ones, and my thoughts are with everyone affected by this devastating incident.

Great work by BGU

Alarmed by escalating scenes in Syria. We want to see civilians protected and the ceasefire upheld, with those responsible for violence in Suwayda held to account. Israel's attacks in Damascus risks destabilising the country. Syria's sovereignty must be respected.
