Headline reads: “UK WARNS EL NIÑO POSES CRITICAL DEFENCE THREAT.” A quote from Adrian Ramsay reads: “It’s good that the foreign secretary is presenting the findings of this crucial report to ministers from other governments. But it begs the question, why are MPs in this country still being denied access to the full report? And, most importantly, why has our government still not published its response to how it will address the stark findings?”

Given our consistent engagement on the adult social care crisis and willingness to work together to solve it, it's deeply disappointing that the Greens weren't invited to today's cross-party talks. We need all hands on deck to tackle this issue - the Greens remain ready to work cross-party to do so.

Dear Andy,
29 July 2026
I welcome your commitment to addressing the challenge of fixing social care, an issue which has
for too long been neglected and treated as a political football. There are no shortage of reports and
proposals on how to change things; what has been missing for far too long is the political will to
do so. I am therefore glad to see that you have committed to spending political capital on securing
positive change.
I also agree that cross-party working is essential to best face this challenge. Indeed, I have
repeatedly called in Parliament for cross-party talks, and I have represented the Green Party at the
(so far, only two) cross-party meetings convened as part of the Casey Commission’s work, in
September 2025 and May 2026. I expressed my strong desire for more frequent and in-depth
cross-party discussions at that most recent meeting, as well as consistently calling on the
government to show greater political leadership on this issue.
It was therefore disappointing to learn yesterday that only two political parties had been invited to
meet with you today, at very short notice, to discuss social care. I am puzzled as to why you did
not extend an invitation to the Green Party, given our long track record of positive engagement in
this area and our frequent expressions of interest in, and support for, cross-party work on social
care. Failing to extend an invitation to your first cross-party meeting on the topic is, frankly, not
consistent with your stated commitment to working cooperatively across party lines.
I remain very keen to work constructively with you and other cross-party colleagues to find
solutions to the crisis in social care, so that we can meet the needs and uphold the interests of
people who draw on care, their families and other unpaid carers, and all those who work in the
care sector.
I look forward to hearing from you.
