    I want to thank Arlene Foster for her dedication to the people of Northern Ireland over many years. She will continue to play a vital role as First Minister until June and I hope that she stays in public service for years to come.

    Vaccines have saved thousands of lives so far and now this data shows they could also protect others by cutting transmission of the virus – which will be crucial in helping us beat the pandemic. I urge everyone to book their jab when called.

    Dame Cheryl Gillan was a great servant to the people of Chesham & Amersham. She made a huge contribution to our party and country, and we will sorely miss her. My thoughts are with her family and friends.

    Today the funeral of Dame Cheryl Gillan took place in Derbyshire. Our President, Baroness Pidding, spoke on behalf of our Association at the service, describing Dame Cheryl as "a bright, shining star and an inspirational part of our lives". May Dame Cheryl rest in peace.

    Today I spoke with President Kenyatta ahead of the joint UK-Kenya Global Education Summit. We agreed to work closely together to ensure 175 million more children get into school around the world. There’s a huge amount the 🇬🇧 and 🇰🇪 can achieve together.

    A quarter of UK adults have received 2 doses of a COVID vaccine, giving them maximum protection against the virus. This is a huge achievement made possible by the tireless work of so many across our country. Please keep coming forward to get vaccinated when you are called.

    1 in 4 adults have now had both vaccine doses.

    Iran's decision to sentence Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe to another year in prison is cruel, inhumane and wholly unjustified. She must be allowed to return to her family in the UK and we will continue to do all we can to get her home.

    Today we pay our respects to the ANZACs who fought at Gallipoli, and remember all those who have fought with courage so that we may live in peace today. Their bravery, fortitude & spirit of mateship live on. They will not be forgotten.

    The UK is hosting a Global Education Summit this summer and leading efforts in our Presidency to get 40 million more girls into school. I spoke to this morning about how girls education is one of the smartest investments countries can make as we build back better.

    This is a landmark achievement by the team at who developed the COVID-19 vaccine. Malaria kills hundreds of thousands of children a year. An effective vaccine holds out the possibility of ending this global tragedy.

    I welcome the Court of Appeal's decision to overturn the convictions of 39 former sub-postmasters in the Horizon dispute, an appalling injustice which has had a devastating impact on these families for years. Lessons should and will be learnt to ensure this never happens again.

    The world’s tropical forests are the lungs of our planet and yet we’re losing these great, teeming ecosystems at an unconscionable rate. I’m pleased the UK is joining this hugely exciting coalition to protect our tropical forests and tackle climate change.

    $1 Billion climate coalition launched to protect tropical rainforests
    The UK is proud to join our partners in the new $1bn to stop deforestation, cut global emissions and put nature on the path of recovery. ➡️

    Our shared duty is to honour and remember all those, wherever they lived and whatever their background, who laid down their lives for our freedoms at the moment of greatest peril. My statement on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission report.

    “During the First World War, millions of people from Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and the Middle East fought for Britain in the struggle against tyranny. “Their contribution to victory was immense, not just in numerical terms but in their courage and valour, and many paid the ultimate price so that we might live in peace and freedom today. “I am deeply troubled by the findings of the Special Committee that not all of our war dead were commemorated with equal care and reverence. On behalf of the Government, I offer an unreserved apology. I welcome the fact that the Commonwealth War Graves Commission has accepted all of the Committee’s recommendations and that it will now re-examine records and make amends wherever possible. Our shared duty is to honour and remember all those, wherever they lived and whatever their background, who laid down their lives for our freedoms at the moment of greatest peril.”
