As Chair of the VVAPPG, I'm proud to see the completion of A Foothold for Vascular Disease. This has been a true cross-sector effort & offers a clear roadmap for improving vascular care. We now look forward to working with NHS England & Ministers to see these reforms delivered.

The decision by @GMJCampaign to award 2026 Magnitsky Award for Outstanding Human Rights Activist to Mohammad Javad Vafaei Sani is a significant human rights event. Honouring a political prisoner facing execution highlights his courage & urgency for global action to save his life.

Huge respect to the London cabbies who stepped up this weekend, freely offering their cabs to take our veterans to the Ceremony of Remembrance & home again, they really are pure class. These men & women beautifully honour the people who served in true & proper London spirit.

London cabbies lined up on Westminster bridge ready to take veterans home, free of charge, from the Remembrance Sunday service in Whitehall. 👏👏👏
