This morning I spoke to President @ZelenskyyUa and reaffirmed that there can be no talks about Ukraine, without Ukraine.
Ukraine has our concrete support – for as long as it is needed.

Getting a secure roof over your head is life changing.
It was heartwarming to listen to a group of new residents who have finally been able to do just that.
As part of our Plan for Change, we will build 1.5m homes and increase the number of social and affordable houses.

Smart climate policy means not only protecting future generations from the biggest existential threat we face, but fighting to make working people better off today, growing our economy and confronting the economic injustices we face.

Today I heard testimonies from renters @genrentuk, who have suffered the indignity of living in cold, unsafe homes.
The fight for a fair deal for renters is a case of economic justice.
That's why we are taking action to enforce proper energy efficiency standards.

The UK is clear there must be a two-state solution, with Palestinians able to live and prosper in their homelands in Gaza and the West Bank.
I spoke with Palestinian Authority Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Dr Varsen Aghabekian to reiterate our position.

We are committed to working with our neighbours to speed up the clean energy transition - together we can make the North Sea the green power plant of Europe.
A pleasure also to discuss close UK-EU cooperation with @seankellyMEP, @barryandrewsMEP & more.

The UK and EU must work together to address common challenges on climate and energy, including the need to speed up renewables development and lower energy bills.
Excellent discussion on how to take action to achieve these goals, with @EEF_EnergyForum and @nationalgrid.

Cooperation with the private sector and our EU allies is crucial for energy security.
That's why I've been in Brussels 🇧🇪 First stop - I met with Minister for Energy @TinneVdS to catch up on UK-Belgium energy collaboration and discuss renewable energy in the North Seas.

Can twitter help source this picture please? It’s on BBC News app but no mention of photographer. (As is usual in mainstream media, unfortunately) Brilliant shot and deserves recognition. #StormEowyn #Photography

Last week the UK announced £410m investment in fusion. It’s a significant step forward in the global race to commercialise fusion, growing our economy, attracting investment, and harnessing the power of the sun to create clean limitless secure energy.
