1 ANDREW MARR SHOW, JEREMY HUNT, MP ANDREW MARR SHOW, 30TH JUNE, 2019 JEREMY HUNT, MP Foreign Secretary AM: Now the truth of the matter is, you know, you’re making a bit of progress but you’re still far, far behind Boris Johnson, and that’s partly down to your own use of language. Do you regret calling him a coward? JH: Well what I said is, “don’t be a coward,” because I think it’s a great shame. This is actually the last of your shows before many Conservative Party members will vote, because they’ll be getting their ballot papers in the next few days and he hasn’t been on here, he hasn’t been prepared to do head to head debates with me before people vote and I think people want a contest; I think that’s respectful to members and I think it will be much better for whoever’s Prime Minister to have that had contest first. So I think what we need is a bit of mojo from Bo-Jo. AM: Now you have also said he must be straight with people. Being straight is our motto here today. JH: I’m always straight on your show, Andrew. AM: Of course you are. In that spirit I want to ask about the Hunt spending splurge, because it seems like an awful lot of money. Corporation Tax, your proposals on Corporation Tax would cost about £13 billion, where would that come from? JH: Well we have about £26 billion of headroom at the moment, and this is a very – AM: I thought you’d say that.

Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications
Making a Hasty Brexit? Ministerial Turnover and Its Implications Jessica R. Adolino, Ph. D. Professor of Political Science James Madison University Draft prepared for presentation at the European Studies Association Annual Meeting May 9-12, 2019, Denver, Colorado Please do not cite or distribute without author’s permission. By almost any measure, since the immediate aftermath of the June 16, 2016 Brexit referendum, the British government has been in a state of chaos. The turmoil began with then- Prime Minister David Cameron’s resignation on June 17 and succession by Theresa May within days of the vote. Subsequently, May’s decision to call a snap election in 2017 and the resulting loss of the Conservatives’ parliamentary majority cast doubt on her leadership and further stirred up dissension in her party’s ranks. Perhaps more telling, and the subject of this paper, is the unprecedented number of ministers1—from both senior and junior ranks—that quit the May government over Brexit-related policy disagreements2. Between June 12, 2017 and April 3, 2019, the government witnessed 45 resignations, with high-profile secretaries of state and departmental ministers stepping down to return to the backbenches. Of these, 34 members of her government, including 9 serving in the Cabinet, departed over issues with some aspect of Brexit, ranging from dissatisfaction with the Prime Minister’s Withdrawal Agreement, to disagreements about the proper role of Parliament, to questions about the legitimacy of the entire Brexit process. All told, Theresa May lost more ministers, and at a more rapid pace, than any other prime minister in modern times.

12 May 2021 to the Rt Hon Dominic Raab MP Secretary of State For
12 May 2021 To The Rt Hon Dominic Raab MP Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs and First Secretary of State. Subject: COVID-19 pandemic in Nepal and a call for urgent support Dear Secretary of State, The executive committee of the Britain-Nepal Academic Council urges the UK government to take urgent action to support the government of Nepal in the face of the humanitarian crisis which is unfolding in Nepal due to the devastating second wave of COVID-19 in South Asia. As the world has watched the tragic impact of India’s second wave, we are concerned that neighbouring Nepal, which is even less prepared, is being overlooked. We write in the wake of the unprecedented yet urgent call for international support issued by the Prime Minister of Nepal, KP Sharma Oli, published in the Guardian on the 10th May [https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/may/10/nepal-covid-uk- g7] and following our own round-table discussion today on the situation in Nepal involving prominent experts on public health in Nepal and the UK (https://www.bnac.ac.uk/activities/covid-19-nepal/). During our programme Sir Jeremy Farrar, the Director of the Wellcome Trust, described the current situation in Nepal as ‘beyond frightening’. Nepal shares an 1880-kilometre long open border with India, with close cultural, trading and family ties. Thus, the crisis in India has equal resonance across the border in Nepal, and the problems on both sides of the borders need to be tackled simultaneously. The current wave of infections in Nepal is estimated to be just two weeks behind that of India’s.

Foreign Affairs Committee Oral evidence: Global health security, HC 200 Tuesday 22 June 2021 Ordered by the House of Commons to be published on 22 June 2021. Watch the meeting Members present: Tom Tugendhat (Chair); Stewart Malcolm McDonald; Andrew Rosindell; Henry Smith; Royston Smith; Graham Stringer; Claudia Webbe. Questions 96-152 Witnesses I: Rt Hon. Jeremy Hunt MP, former Foreign Secretary and former Health Secretary. II: Niall Ferguson, historian and commentator. Examination of witness Witness: Rt Hon. Jeremy Hunt MP. Q96 Chair: Welcome to this afternoon’s session of the Foreign Affairs Committee. In a repeat of a few years ago, we have Jeremy Hunt, no longer the Foreign Secretary, before the Committee—I will call you Jeremy if that’s all right, because it would be weird not to. You are unusual in having held two of the great offices that specifically affect global health diplomacy: you were Health Secretary for nearly seven years and Foreign Secretary for nearly two years. Does the UK co- ordinate health and foreign policy well? Jeremy Hunt: I think we do it better than most other countries, but clearly not well enough. The big lesson of the last year is that we are going to have to raise our game massively. When I was Health Secretary, pandemic planning was left entirely to me and very rarely raised at Cabinet level or with the Cabinet Office. We did extensive preparations and planning, but we now know that we over-prepared for flu pandemics and under-prepared for SARS-like pandemics. We clearly did not get it all right.

This boundary, often referred to in the West as a ‘Chinese Wall’, is designed to uphold the inde- pendence of journalists from commercial interests or the whims of news proprietors. But does this separation still exist in today’s age of social media and at a time when news revenues are under unprecedented pressure? This article focuses on Twitter, now a widely used tool in the newsroom, analysing the Twitter output of 10 UK political correspondents during the busy party conference season.

Background, Brexit, and Relations with the United States
The United Kingdom: Background, Brexit, and Relations with the United States Updated April 16, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL33105 SUMMARY RL33105 The United Kingdom: Background, Brexit, and April 16, 2021 Relations with the United States Derek E. Mix Many U.S. officials and Members of Congress view the United Kingdom (UK) as the United Specialist in European States’ closest and most reliable ally. This perception stems from a combination of factors, Affairs including a sense of shared history, values, and culture; a large and mutually beneficial economic relationship; and extensive cooperation on foreign policy and security issues. The UK’s January 2020 withdrawal from the European Union (EU), often referred to as Brexit, is likely to change its international role and outlook in ways that affect U.S.-UK relations. Conservative Party Leads UK Government The government of the UK is led by Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the Conservative Party. Brexit has dominated UK domestic politics since the 2016 referendum on whether to leave the EU. In an early election held in December 2019—called in order to break a political deadlock over how and when the UK would exit the EU—the Conservative Party secured a sizeable parliamentary majority, winning 365 seats in the 650-seat House of Commons. The election results paved the way for Parliament’s approval of a withdrawal agreement negotiated between Johnson’s government and the EU. UK Is Out of the EU, Concludes Trade and Cooperation Agreement On January 31, 2020, the UK’s 47-year EU membership came to an end.

Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) Decision Notice
Reference: IC-48534-L8F9 Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) Decision notice Date: 1 April 2021 Public Authority: Cabinet Office Address: 70 Whitehall London SW1A 2AS Decision (including any steps ordered) 1. The complainant submitted a request to the Cabinet Office asking whether their Propriety and Ethics team held any information about non- disclosure agreements (NDAs) between Mr Dominic Raab, Secretary of State for Foreign Commonwealth and Development Affairs and First Secretary of State, and members of the civil service. The complainant was not seeking the details or contents of any such NDAs but rather whether such information was held and the number of such NDAs if held. The Cabinet Office relied on section 40(5) (personal data) of the FOIA 2000 to refuse to confirm or deny whether they held any information falling within scope of the request. 2. The Commissioner has concluded that the Cabinet Office was entitled to rely on section 40(5) to refuse to confirm or deny whether they held any information falling within scope of the request. However, the Commissioner also finds that, in failing to issue a refusal notice within 20 working days, the Cabinet Office breached section 17(1) of the FOIA. 3. The Commissioner does not require any further steps. 1 Reference: IC-48534-L8F9 Background 4. On 30 January 2011, The Mail On Sunday published an article about Mr Dominic Raab MP, entitled ‘Payout for Woman Who Claimed Workplace Bullying Under Raab’. The article related to Mr Raab’s time (2006 to 2010) working as Chief of Staff to Shadow Home Secretary David Davis.
