Fishing, Foreign Policy, and Friendships: Vance Meets Lammy in the UK

JD Vance's visit to the UK turns into a mix of leisure and foreign policy discussions with British foreign secretary David Lammy amid rising tensions in Gaza.


Vice President JD Vance and British Foreign Secretary David Lammy got together for a unique meeting at Chevening House, blending fishing with urgent talks on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The two leaders, representing contrasting political views, shared their friendship against a backdrop of diplomatic differences and family time in the UK.

Vance and Lammy were spotted enjoying a fishing excursion before engaging in discussions about the humanitarian impact of Israel's military actions in Gaza. While Vance stood strongly against recognizing Palestine as a state amidst calls from Lammy's Labour Party, he expressed concerns shared by both about the escalating crisis. As the two hosted families at the historic Chevening estate, they demonstrated a commitment to navigating their political differences while maintaining their personal bond. Following their stay in Kent, the Vance family plans to explore the scenic Cotswolds, a favorite retreat for the British elite.
