@JamesCleverly Agreed. @JohnHealey_MP was my opposite number for a while when I was Housing & Planning Minister. A very decent man, genuine and tough too, in the right ways. A real loss for the government.

English law is already one of Britain's most valuable exports. Trusted across global commerce for centuries, it now has a major opportunity to lead in digital assets, blockchain and smart contracts. The opportunity isn't to invent something new - it's to build on what already exists. Read my latest article for @CityAM 👇 cityam.com/the-world-runs…

Today we remember the sacrifice and bravery of the British and Allied forces who stormed the beaches of Normandy 82 years ago. They fought for freedom, duty, and our values. We will never forget their sacrifice.

Every quarter is a new beginning - and a new opportunity. As a digital operator with a telecom licence, VEON goes further than connectivity, creating scalable digital services ecosystems across high-growth markets. This differentiated approach opens up exciting potential for investors seeking exposure to digital growth stories outside traditional telecom frameworks. Watch to learn more from CEO @Kaan_Terzioglu about how our model is redefining our business 👇 And tune into our next quarterly earnings release on July 31st 2026.

So very sad to have learnt of the untimely death of a great friend and colleague, Sir Alex Younger. We were at St Andrews University together, had parallel careers and retired together in autumn 2020. He was an outstanding national security leader. I will miss him terribly. Love and condolences to Sarah and the family.

@marksedwill @RobertSyms Agreed, a true gentleman. Far too young, RIP

Having worked with Madeleine at @NIOgov when Secretary of State, fully support this. A superb example of a public servant. Great to work with and best wishes for a great retirement. 👇

Seems immensely arrogant for any politician to assume they can use a Parliamentary seat to further their own party & personal interests. Be interesting to see if the voters of Makerfield will kick back against this approach. Not sure what it says about our system now that Labour are taking voters for granted rather than governing & that someone feels it appropriate to give up their democratic responsibilities to help someone else further their political career.

Worth a read, having been in UAE for the first weeks of the war & having seen first hand how UAE continues to grow as a hub & home for some many, can highly recommend this as a worth read to understand what can be achieved with good leadership & focus 👇

That's a wrap on #MIGlobal 2026. VEON was proud to bring a strong delegation to the Milken Institute's 29th annual Global Conference, joining global CEOs, capital market participants, and more leaders from nearly 80 countries for dialogue on the forces reshaping global markets and industry - technology and capital. This year's theme, Leading in a New Era, was a natural fit for VEON. Sessions spanning the AI imperative, geopolitical and trade realignment, private markets evolution, and emerging market opportunities mapped directly to the environments where we operate and deliver every day. Our team engaged across all of it: Chairman and Founder Augie K. Fabela II, Board Member Rt Hon Sir Brandon Lewis CBE, CEO Kaan Terzioglu, JazzWorld CEO Aamir Ibrahim, Marine Babayan, and Joshua Hodges. As a American co-founded, NASDAQ-listed company headquartered in Dubai, Milken provided a great opportunity for VEON to discuss the issues that are shaping tomorrow internationally and here in the U.S. At the table where capital meets technology, and where American-rooted companies demonstrate what advanced digital infrastructure can unlock across dynamic markets around the world. @MilkenInstitute @Kaan_Terzioglu @BrandonLewis @aamir_ibrahim01 @jazz_worldpk

I know everyone is poring over election results, but let’s not forget… Today is VE Day. It’s still living memory and being able to have elections is one of the freedoms fought for. That freedom was bought by men and women who served our country. Even now our veterans need defending. The battles are different…like stopping brave veterans being dragged through the courts for vexatious claims in their old age. Conservatives continue to fight. Just yesterday, the Supreme Court reinstated immunities after my Shadow Attorney General, Lord Wolfson stepped in, acted pro bono for veterans, and won. We’re the only party doing the work. On VE Day, we remember their sacrifice. But remembrance is not enough. We should also honour our veterans by looking after them and defending them in Parliament, in the courts just as they defended us.

This VE Day and always, we will remember the generation that gave everything to restore freedom to Europe. #VEDay81

My piece form a year ago seems even more relevant this morning, for @CityAM: “ Reform surge has reshaped the political landscape” 👇 cityam.com/reform-surge-h…

Listen to co-founder @jamesjohnson252 analysing Reform UK's fusion of local and national issues, on @TimesRadio “In our focus groups, voters are clearly angry at illegal immigration and see the Govt spending money on that rather than fixing roads or local services, and that's why Reform has been so successful” thetimes.com/radio/show/202…
