Last week, we had the final celebration for the Tribute Trek, at Stationers'​ Hall. We have been overwhelmed by the support the Trek has had, from the beginning, and we are proud to announce that, in total, we have raised over £600,000 for ex-SF members and their dependents.

So proud to be part of this amazing expedition

@guywalters You need Brewdog

I'm sure this will work out just fine.

En route to Berlin for my Great Escapes tour with @WeAreTripsmiths! I'm assuming all 32 of the guests are on my flight. One of my favourite games is to see if I can identify them...

Today, a Service of Thanksgiving & Rededication @wabbey marked the 84th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. One of the most crucial battles of WWII, it was the first decisive battle in history fought entirely in the air, lasting over 3 months. More 🔗 ow.ly/v2Bn50TnK8o

@aliona_hlivco So sad and what a loss

In Ukraine, we are used to the fact that life takes the best ones away from us. Now this is true for UK too. Thank you for your beautiful voice on Ukraine, on freedom, on bravery, Friend. You are now forever in the Legion of Heroes.

@FrancisDearnley I am so very sorry, what a monumental loss.

Today we mourn the loss of a brilliant journalist, but - more importantly - a magnificent human being. His listeners included ambassadors and the heads of US departments, but he never changed. He was utterly authentic and empathetic. Thank you, David. telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/0…

@ChrisBurrows4 Nah, this one for me

‼️Russians have just hit Kharkiv's residential areas with 10 guided bombs and ballistic missiles. There are many victims. Ukraine is forbidden by its allies from striking the Russian launchers and airfields with western weapons.

If you haven’t seen The Terror, it really is one of those lightning in a bottle mini series.

This has sent me to heaven I am deceased

As Russia continues to attack UA’s energy infrastructure, today more than ever we are at a crossroads in the Russo-Ukrainian war. And Western govts, individually, need to recognise that & make a decision 🧵

Ukraine’s independence means the independence of every citizen – true #volia, which Ukrainians demonstrate to the world every day. We remember the price paid by Ukrainian defenders in the fight for our present and an equally independent future. Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Our support for Ukraine must be heard around the world. On Ukrainian Independence Day, 24 August, #MakeNoiseForUkraine to show your support. Join our campaign: gov.uk/government/new… #SlavaUkraini

Kyiv tonight. Joy due to alert-free evening.

We wanted to highlight the 'Humanitarian Triple Bottom Line', showcasing the impacts you could make when deployed on a medical mission. smpl.is/9gr4a #WorldExtremeMedicine #FloatingDoctors #HumanitarianWork #GlobalHealth #MedicalMissions

The whole thread is worth reading but this is a pretty concise summary. Ukrainian victory is in theory militarily possible, but enough Western politicians endorsing that strategy for victory seems (right now) impossible. New strategies and thinking needed

@benhabib6 My Ukrainian Aid organisation would like to take the boats and their engines to Ukraine for use on the Dnipro river. We will do it for free. We have asked the last Government and they said “No”.

A convoy of vehicles departed from the Embassy to Ukraine. This significant event was supported by compassionate British residents who donated vehicles or contributed through the ULEZ scrappage scheme.

What a day! A privilege, if a little surreal, to give my maiden speech in the House of Lords yesterday, with my family watching on. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way.
