It was a pleasure to see President Bush again to discuss the special relationship between our two countries and the importance of defending our values in a world where they are increasingly under threat.
It was a great pleasure to host my friend @speakerpelosi at Parliament for a discussion of the 🇬🇧🇺🇸 partnership and our shared challenges at home & abroad.
In a world where our values are under threat, the alliance between our two countries has never been more important.

Yesterday I visited Salisbury, six years on from Russia’s brazen use of a chemical weapon on British soil. It was a pleasure to thank staff at @dstlmod Porton Down for their professionalism — and for everything they do away from public view to keep our country safe.

To mark the release of the report of the Parliamentary Inquiry I co-chaired into #Type1Diabetes related eating disorders, I spoke to @bbctodayprogramme
Urgent changes are needed to prevent, treat & save lives. The time has come to act. We’re grateful to all those who gave evidence to the inquiry – particularly those with first-hand experience who provided invaluable insight. Thanks also to @jdrf_uk the #Type1Diabetes charity, for their dedicated support.

Nine years ago today the Modern Slavery Act became law. It was truly world-leading legislation, putting the UK at the forefront of tackling this heinous crime. But today there are 50 million people trapped in slavery and forced labour around the world.
That’s why I launched the Global Commission on Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking.
The Global Commission brings together leaders from politics, business, academia & civil society. Together we will mobilise the evidence base, facilitate international collaboration & drive action on exploitation up the political agenda.

It was an honour to give the inaugural @hansardsociety Churchill-Attlee Democracy Lecture.
At a time when the resilience of our democratic values are being tested like never before we must do all we can to defend them.
This week I’ve been talking to international businesses & governments about the work of the Global Commission on Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking.
Delighted to speak alongside @the_anti_slavery_collective @princesseugenie Jose Manuel Barroso & John Schultz @hpe on how to tackle this great human rights issue of our time.
Great to see @antonioguterres again & meet @unitednations Ambassadors to discuss the work of the Global Commission on Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking. The time has come to restore political momentum towards tackling these heinous crimes.

Six years on from Russia’s reckless use of a nerve agent on the streets of Salisbury, I spoke to the @atlanticcouncil yesterday about the importance of a strong and unified Western alliance. We must continue to stand up for our values in the face of Russian aggression.

Last week I was in Kenya for a meeting of the Global Commission on Modern Slavery & Human Trafficking. We heard valuable insights from government representatives & NGOs from across Africa who work on the ground to overcome the challenges faced in tackling these heinous crimes.
Particular thanks to @maishagirlssafehouse for showing us the important work they do to protect victims. It was incredibly powerful to hear the experience of those who have suffered at the hands of slave drivers and traffickers.

There is so much work to be done if we are going to tackle modern slavery and human trafficking in our lifetime.
