I don’t have live access to up-to-the-minute feeds in this moment, but I can share what’s publicly known about James Roscoe from reliable outlets up to recently.

Core answer

• James Roscoe has been reported in 2025 as serving as Britain’s interim UK ambassador to the United States, appointed after the dismissal of Lord Mandelson. This was widely reported by outlets covering UK–US diplomacy, including Sky News and other media at the time.[1][2]

• Roscoe’s profile at that time described him as a career diplomat who stepped in as head of mission in Washington during the interim period, with prior experience including roles at the UN and in UK government communications. This background was highlighted in contemporary coverage.[2][1]
• There were later reports in 2026 mentioning Roscoe in connection with Washington postings, including notes that he had left his deputy head of mission post in Washington around May 2026 per UK Foreign Office updates. This appears in Reuters coverage from May 2026.[4]

What this means

• If you’re tracking the status of the UK ambassadorial post to the US, Roscoe served in an interim capacity in late 2025 and early 2026, with the UK continuing a process to appoint a permanent ambassador.[1][2][4]
