A dignified, top-class diplomat putting national interest before his own. The resignation of @KimDarroch is not only a loss to the UK diplomatic service, but to all diplomats who need to be able report confidentially on events as they see them without fear of damaging leaks twitter.com/SMcDonaldFCO/s…

.@KimDarroch: “We have been lucky to have you as a friend and colleague. You are the best of us.” This morning it was my reluctant duty to accept Sir Kim’s resignation https://t.co/bNqGMqoCzR

Great to see @sumuvuori back in London in her new role talking about the importance of transparency to democracy #DefendMediaFreedom twitter.com/MKeinanen/stat…

New MFA State Secretary @sumuvuori already in action and participating #MediaFreedom Conference in London. Underlined the importance of the right to access to information from authorities. In Finland documents by assumption public. @Ulkoministerio @finlandinuk @RaunoMerisaari pic.twitter.com/rqRxnhXnbo

Diplomats in the London diplomatic corps would agree. Honest and confidential reporting is critical to diplomacy. We are pleased that the @CommonsForeign is conducting an urgent inquiry into secure communications today in Committee Room 5 - first witness is FCO PUS @SMcDonaldFCO twitter.com/TomTugendhat/s…

If envoys are fired for writing critically about their host government there would be no diplomats in Washington, London, Brussels, Rome, Paris, Moscow, Berlin, Beijing, New Delhi, Islamabad,... I could go on. Every envoy is critical of every host government. That’s their job. https://t.co/GHYiN0jdn8
