Ahead of tomorrow’s Royal Maundy service at St Asaph Cathedral, take a look back at the centuries‑old tradition. Dating back to 600AD, every year on the Thursday before Easter, The Sovereign presents Maundy Money to people who’ve made an outstanding contribution to their communities. Early in her reign, Queen Elizabeth II chose to take the Maundy Service around the UK, visiting a different cathedral or abbey each year in recognition of local communities across the country.

A tragedy like the Israeli strike on the World Central Kitchen aid convoy in Gaza must never happen again. Two years on, I pay tribute to the bravery of those staff. We continue to push Israel for justice for the families of John Chapman, James “Jim” Henderson and James Kirby.

Deeply concerned by Israel's announcement stating intention to expand its ground operations in Lebanon, where over 1m people have already been forcibly displaced. Israel must avoid further exacerbation of the conflict, and refrain from any action to seize Lebanese territory.

Putin is rubbing his hands at the war in the Middle East because he thinks higher oil prices will let him line his pockets. I will always defend British interests at home and abroad, which is why we are taking action against Russia’s shadow fleet today.

Putin wants us to be distracted. We won’t let that happen. Russia and Iran have been working together - sharing tactics, training, and tech. We will not take our eye off the Russian threat, and we will continue to stand with Ukraine.

Those who exploit vulnerable people, abuse human rights and defraud innocent victims will face serious consequences. Today we have: ❌ Targeted largest known scam compound in Cambodia. ❌ Sanctioned an illicit crypto marketplace. ❌ Frozen more London properties.
