On board HMS Trent, HMA Sir Christian Turner joined partners to celebrate the UK/U.S. defence partnership - the closest, deepest, and most advanced defense and intelligence partnership in the world.
He was also in Florida for England’s World Cup warm-up game, with the countdown to World Cup 2026 underway. ⚓ ⚽ 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
From AUKUS to Five Eyes, and from defence cooperation to shared economic benefit, the UK and U.S. are #GreaterTogether.

In these globally turbulent times one man has regularly acted as a wise, thoughtful and witty guide for listeners of @BBCr4today. The former Head of MI6 Sir Alex Younger has analysed, explained and contextualised the actions of Trump, Putin, Xi and the Ayatollahs. After he first appeared in the programme I was lucky enough to get to know Alex and call him my friend. I’m desperately sad to hear the news I’ve long feared was coming. Alex has died after months trying to cheat the
prognosis he was given whe. They discovered the tumour he nicknamed “Putin”.
We’re always told not to speak of a fight with cancer because it risks implying that only those strong enough survive. I understand that. I really do but sod it. Alex fought so hard to find a treatment to give him a little longer to be with Sarah and their lovely children. And he used every last minute of the short time he did have to be with family and friends and to do what he spent a lifetime in the shadows doing - using his intelligence to understand the world, to explain it but, above all, to keep us all safe.
I am saddened to hear of the passing of Lord Haselhurst, a distinguished parliamentarian who served for decades, including as my predecessor as Chairman of Ways and Means and Chair of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
