David Cameron: The medical change which might have helped my son
The former foreign secretary talks about new role looking at cures for genetic conditions
After serving as foreign secretary in the Conservative government until July, Lord Cameron has a new role at the Oxford-Harrington Rare Disease Centre, which aims to find cures for rare, genetic conditions like the one his son Ivan was born with.
In his first interview with Today since the election, Lord Cameron also urged the government to consider sanctioning two Israeli ministers as a way of "putting pressure" on the country to act within international law.
He said the Foreign Office, when he was in charge, had been "working up" plans to put sanctions on Israel鈥檚 Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir. The 麻豆社 has contacted Smotrich and Ben-Gvir for a response.
