Dame Priti Patel urges the government to build upon the "deep and enduring" relationship between the US and the UK and “resume talks over a free trade agreement”.

The Conservatives have supported the government's standpoint that Ukraine must be present at peace negotiations attempting to put an end to the conflict with Russia. Shadow Levelling Up Secretary Kevin Hollinrake said he "welcomes Trump's efforts" to end the conflict but said that Ukraine "must be at the table, not on the table". Report by Faragt.

U.S-Ukraine Tensions growing day by day. Zelensky rejects U.S. rare-earths deal, drawing sharp criticism from the White House, which labeled his decision “short-sighted.” The proposal, reportedly discussed at the Munich Security Conference, would have granted Washington access to Ukraine’s critical mineral resources in exchange for continued U.S. support. However, Zelensky pushed back, arguing that Ukraine seeks a true partnership, not a one-sided transaction.

A friend of Jaysley Beck has said sexual abuse in the Army is still going on years after the former Royal Artillery gunner's death. The body of the 19-year-old was found in a locker room at Wiltshire's Larkhill Camp in 2021. She had been subjected to relentless harassment from her line manager, Bombardier Ryan Mason, an inquest was told. Beck had also filed a complaint against Battery Sergeant Major Michael Webber who "pinned her down" and tried to kiss her at a work social. Former soldier Tamzin Hort compared being a woman in the Army to being "a piece of meat in a tank of sharks" and that "people get sexually assaulted left, right and centre, but nothing's done about it".
