@ShirleyRogers01 Congratulations Shirley on all of your contributions to public service- I’m glad you’ll have time to come visit me in Australia now!! 😀
When you make a day of it on Sydney transport- 2 trains to destination 1, another to the 2nd destination, light rail to the third and three trains home… love your work @HowieCollins!! Almost like London!!
As Lord Hague said last year “While there is so much about international affairs that is written in treaties and sanctified by parliaments, the key thing, the crucial ingredient of the Britain Australia relationship, is that it is personal.”
@IFM_Economist Because I think they will be happy to let it ride for a month and go again in May- just to get a bit more of a sense of if we have actually arrived at an inflection point. Also allows for a reset in the 2nd half…
Terrific to conversation with the @citylordmayor for the @BritishChamber in Sydney yesterday. Terrific to reflect on the significant changes the #AUKFTA will bring & the opportunities to enhance those through the ongoing dialogue features. Thanks to @business_nsw for sponsoring.
Great to launch @cityoflondon report on improving services trade between UK-Australia in Sydney 🇦🇺🇬🇧. If we want the respective growth of our financial and professional services to reach its full potential, then we need the regulatory dialogue up and running as soon as possible.
Terrific to host my last event in Melbourne as CEO of the @BritishChamber yesterday with the @citylordmayor, and to discuss the benefits of the #AUKFTA for financial & professional services. Thanks also to @PwC_AU for hosting us and great to see @SenatorHume too!
