[Stephen Doughty HC MP @SDoughtyMP]

Extraordinary work by @16AirAssltBCT to get urgent medical support to our remote Overseas Territory of Tristan da Cunha.

Along with brilliant support from @UKHSA - we are committed to support the people of our OTs & British nationals, wherever they are.

UK specialist paratroopers and military clinicians have carried out a daring parachute operation to deliver critical medical support to Tristan da Cunha – Britain’s most remote inhabited Overseas Territory – after a suspected case of Hantavirus was identified on the island.

'I need hardly say that Bermuda, like all the overseas territories, is a most cherished and important member of the British family, with a friendship as solid as this so-called ‘rock'.'

At a Garden Party at Government House, The King addressed representatives of Bermuda’s society - from religious leaders and business executives, to community heroes and artists.

[The Royal Family @RoyalFamily]

🇧🇲👋 What a wonderfully warm welcome to Bermuda! Thank you to all who came out to say hello.

In King’s Square, The King was formally welcomed to the island with a military ceremony by the Royal Bermuda Regiment and a 21-gun salute.

[Bermuda Government @BdaGovernment]

Bermuda welcomes HM King Charles III to the island.

The Falkland Islands are British.

As I confirmed to Parliament earlier this week, our commitment to the self-determination, sovereignty and defence of the Falkland Islands and their people is resolute - and will always come first.

I just received this proof of life from the governor of St Helena

[Palmerston @DiploMog]

Palmerston, Diplocat extraordinaire, passed away peacefully on 12 February. “Palmy” was a special member of the Government House team in Bermuda, and a much loved family member. He was a wonderful companion, with a gentle nature, and will be sorely missed.

Because of the Falklands, South Georgia and the British Antarctic Territories, the United Kingdom is responsible for 25% of the world's penguins. This is evident in their behaviour.

[Governor's Office - St Helena, Ascension & Tristan @GO_ASHT]

Anlässlich des bevorstehenden Staatsbesuchs von Bundespräsident Steinmeier im Vereinigten Königreich hatte ich die Gelegenheit, mit @welt TV über die Bedeutung dieses Besuchs für die deutsch-britischen Beziehungen zu sprechen. Vielen Dank an für die Einladung und das Gespräch!

That’s a wrap!

This week, Overseas Territories leaders and Ministers have made clear that we are stronger together, as we tackle illicit finance, challenges of migration, barriers to biodiversity, and more. UK bilateral trade with the Overseas Territories is about £17 billion.
