During the last leadership contest as Party Chairman I received countless e-mails from @Conservatives members wanting Boris on the ballot. Constitutionally that was impossible. Now it isn't.

- The Prime Minister @BorisJohnson, who won a massive mandate from the British people less than three years ago, has my full support in today’s vote. He delivered Brexit, delivered on vaccines & has delivered unprecedented #LevellingUp funding for Pendle.
- Shocking. Witnessing ‘Tory scum’ being screamed at elderly Scottish pensioners and young women simply for attending a hustings. Also reports of spitting. @NicolaSturgeon will you unequivocally condemn this vile behaviour from your independence supporters?
- Great to see other East Lancashire MPs are hearing the same as I am 👍Over the last 24 hours my inbox has been inundated with messages. The majority view, and my view, is clear. It’s time to #BringBackBoris. He has the mandate to lead our country & our party.
- Proud to have passed my @NWAmbulance Community First Responder Annual Assessment today so I can volunteer and help our @NHSuk in the coming weeks #StayHomeSaveLives
- My MP Advice Surgeries and residents meetings this morning were dominated by Brexit. Vast majority pleased that I... ❌ Voted AGAINST a 2nd Referendum ❌ Voted AGAINST delaying Exit Day ❌ Voted AGAINST taking No Deal off the table
- Good to see the Prime Minister @RishiSunak selling poppies for @PoppyLegion at Westminster tube station on my way into work this morning.
- Strikers are blocking people getting to work, hospital and school - yet Labour MPs like frontbencher Sam Tarry joined the strikes. What will Keir Starmer do?
- Inspiring speech by the Prime Minister @BorisJohnson today. I’ve already seen emails from people who have joined the @Conservatives today because of his leadership 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 Join us conservatives.com/join

- Great to have the Prime Minister in Lancashire todayIt’s fantastic to be out campaigning with @Conservatives councillors in the North West. They work tirelessly to keep your taxes low and deliver high-quality public services.
- It is an honour to have been appointed Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party today. I cannot wait to get on with the job of delivering the Conservative message and working with members up and down the country!
- I attended an moving event at the Minhaj-ul-Quran Centre in Nelson tonight, where a minutes silence was held and prayers were said for Sir David Amess MP #RIPSirDavidAmess
- Unbelievable how many Labour MPs representing northern constituencies that voted Leave and then stood on a manifesto commitment to honour the result of the referendum are doing everything they can to block Brexit.
