Great to have some time off with the family over Easter : walking in Saxony, canoeing in the Spreewald and camping in beautiful places. Now back to Berlin fully recharged for the weeks ahead…

Great coverage of the visit to Hamburg of 🇬🇧 flagship, HMS Queen Elizabeth. And a real pleasure to host friends and partners on board yesterday to celebrate our growing defence partnership. m.bild.de/news/inland/...

We cannot allow aggressors like Putin to succeed. Now more than ever, 🇬🇧 🇩🇪& our partners & allies must support Ukraine's fight for freedom, independence and victory - read @andrewmitchell67.bsky.social‘s op-ed in Die Zeit (German) www.zeit.de/politik/ausl...

Krieg in der Ukraine: Wir können nicht zulassen, dass Aggressoren wie Putin Erfolg haben

Mit mehr Unterstützung ihrer Verbündeten könne die Ukraine gewinnen, schreibt der britische Botschafter. Die Kosten der Untätigkeit seien weitaus höher.

Always a delight to be back in Hamburg, even on a particularly cold & grey day!

Brilliant idea - I wonder if it’s useful for adults learning German too?! (Asking for a friend!)
