I thoroughly enjoyed meeting with Baroness @JennyChapman of @FCDOGovUK. The 🇬🇧 #UK and @GPforEducation strong and longstanding partnership has helped advance gender equality, climate action, growth and stability through effective and scalable education investments.

Delighted to meet Stephen Twigg @CPA_Secretariat in London today, a strong champion for education and longtime friend of @GPforEducation. Great to exchange on the importance of prioritizing investments in education to achieve our shared development goals. #FundEducation

Very pleased to meet with Emily Darlington @emily4MK while in London for a good conversation about education as a crucial driver for peace and security. I look forward to working together and to further deepen the partnership between the 🇬🇧 #UK and @GPforEducation.

Thank you, @MaryWBousted for this engaging conversation on the crucial role of education for long-term growth, social justice and stability. The continued and strong support from the 🇬🇧 #UK to @GPforEducation is key to building a brighter future for all. #FundEducation

Education is the backbone for gender equality, empowering girls to reach their full potential. I enjoyed meeting @morton_wendy in London to speak about girls' education and the 🇬🇧 #UK's commitment to investing in global education as a longstanding @GPforEducation partner.

The 🇬🇧 UK's support for global education is crucial to advance quality learning for children worldwide. GPE's High-Level Envoy Ruth Kagia met with @Lord_Collins and @FCDOGovUK's Beth Arthy during the #EWF25 to reinforce the partnership between GPE and the UK.

It was great to connect with @JSHerbertson of @FCDOEducation during my visit to London. The #UK is a global education champion and shares a strong and longstanding partnership with @GPforEducation. I look forward to continuing our collaboration to transform education.

Strong partnerships are fundamental to maintain education as a global development priority. I appreciated the opportunity to speak to @MelindaBohannon of @FCDOGovUK about recent @GPforEducation's achievements and work to transform education for all.

Great to meet with Laura Frigenti, @GPECEO in Parliament yesterday. I have been championing @GPforEducation work for years. We discussed our shared commitment to providing quality education to children in lower income countries. A springboard to stronger economies.

Civil society is essential to mobilize education support. I valued this discussion with 🇬🇧 #UK partners, hosted by @GPforEducation and @sendmyfriend, to connect the dots between funding education and advancing stability, climate action, economic growth and gender equality.

I truly enjoyed meeting @JuliaGillard, Chair of @wellcometrust, former @GPforEducation Chair and remarkable leader in education and beyond.

Wonderful to meet Laura Frigenti, the @GPECEO. We had a great discussion on how #education improves life chances and the need for international support. As the Chair of the APPG for Global Education, I am proud to commit both mine and the APPG's support for @GPforEducation.

The #UK's support to @GPforEducation has been and will be instrumental in addressing the global learning crisis. Thank you, @appgglobaled, @resultsuk and @BambosMP for organizing this insightful exchange with parliamentarians on the opportunities and challenges to #FundEducation

Our thoughts are with all racialised communities and migrants who are being terrorised when they should be feeling safe. When successive Governments and media dehumanise people with toxic language such as invaders or illegals, and champion cruel policies, the far right feels emboldened and legitimised. It’s time our political leaders recognise how divisive language, and racist policies result in this violence. The scapegoating and political exploitation of migrants including refugees must end, and our representatives as well as the Home Office must unequivocally stand with people who choose to rebuild their lives in the UK. The government must take all precautions to ensure migrant and minoritised communities feel safe across the country and Parliament must be immediately recalled to prepare for a complete shift on narrative, policy and practice on migration.

The Bibby Stockholm's prison-like conditions fail every test of what asylum accommodation should be. We welcome its closure. It's time to close all the barracks, hotels and sub standard housing still in use and properly fund local authorities to house refugees in communities.

12 June, 2pm, Westminster 👇 Join this @RefugeeAction report launch and panel with @garyyounge @shabnabegum @migrants_rights @FrancesWebber5 @jthomasfournier on fighting racism in the UK asylum system. Couldn't be more timely ahead of the Election. refugee-action.org.uk/racial-justice…

Good and right that the whip has finally been restored: @KateOsamor is a great champion of proper ⁦@UKLabour⁩ values. theguardian.com/politics/artic…

Important intervention from MPs across parties today 👇 Inexcusable Home Office delays in processing cases shouldn’t stop asylum seekers from working and contributing. Refugees make Britain better. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…

It's legal to claim asylum. People who have asked for help must not be treated this way. This is an attack on everyone's rights. When universal human rights, like the right to seek safety, are undermined for anyone they're undermined for everyone. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…

I’m convinced many in politics and media still don’t understand some of these basic facts 👇 The impact of Point 5 - the new and needless build-up of tens of thousands more people stuck in the UK in limbo - has been wildly underestimated for months.
