  The grand finale for JMC 2024, with PM Starmer and King Charles

  

  It was a grand finale for the two days Joint Ministerial Council held in London between the democratic representatives from Britain’s Overseas Territories and the new UK government’s cabinet ministers, chaired by Foreign minister Stephen Doughty. In effect, Prime Minister Keir Starmer addressed the group at the end of the event, reaffirming his government’s commitment to the OTs and the principle, “nothing about you, without you”. The Prime Minister also mentioned the Falkland Islands, when remembering his family’s despair during the 1982 war, after HMS Antilope went down with much loss of lives, and hours later it was reported that Starmer’s mother brother, miraculously survived.
