I attended an event at Parliament on 27 February 2019 to support the Fairtrade Fortnight campaign in raising awareness of Fairtrade producers and understanding the difference that Fairtrade can make to people’s lives.

More than 40 former ambassadors and high commissioners have written to the Prime Minister warning that Brexit has turned into a national crisis. I called on the Leader of the House to announce the timetable for the meaningful vote today.
