@CivGame So following the introduction of the new launcher, my friends and I lost a 6 month old multiplayer game - all autosaves have disappeared. Unbelievably frustrating. Please help!

Textbook #moderndiplomacy, @ChrisSaintyFCO. 1. Connect with the country you’re in, authentically. 2. Get noticed back home and invited onto @BBCRadio4. 3. Before the presenter can get a word in edgeways, stress how you’re helping 🇬🇧 nationals in Portugal. 4. Praise your team.👏🎹

Free trade is a force for good. In 2020 we can reach out across the world and kick start the decade of trade. African nations will be key partners.

I had an excellent conversation with the ⁦@FT⁩ ahead of tomorrow’s UK-Africa Investment Summit, where I made the point that 🇬🇧 has been hard at work growing our footprint to take advantage of the #trade & #investment opportunities in #Africa. https://t.co/dbR1h5skTy
