Goods produced through modern slavery and benefiting warlords end up in global supply chains far too often.
It was a pleasure to argue for more action against illicit supply chains at a recent event held by @FPCThinkTank and the APPG for Anti-Corruption and Responsible Tax.

NEW: Britain’s fiercest libel firm, Carter-Ruck, acted for the $4bn OneCoin fraud and threatened its critics. Now they’re being prosecuted at the SDT.
Their response? An anonymity order to cover it up. But Carter-Ruck just lost that order - and it's all coming out.

Great to be in parliament yesterday for @FPCThinkTank @GAPS_Network & @unibirmingham event on Promoting Inclusive Peace.
Panelists discussed how robust policy frameworks, multilateral engagement & the inclusion of women are fundamental to the sustainability of peace 🕊️
Foreign Policy Centre retweeted
The inclusion of women addresses root causes of conflict & creates legitimacy and trust between those with power and those most affected by conflict
The examples of Colombia & Mindanao demonstrate the success of inclusion & provide valuable lessons
