Hugely proud to be elected as the one of two Conservative councillors for Hyde Park ward in @CityWestminster Years of hard work have paid off, and it will be a privilege to serve the residents of the greatest part of London, the area that I call home, over the next 4 years

I voted Remain. I came to terms with the Brexit vote. I even came to believe that Brexit was an opportunity. But I never completely disavowed my decision in 2016. I now do, wholeheartedly. The Brexit side has been proven unequivocally right and just in the past week.

I live right next to this amazing space in Paddington, with space for hundreds to watch the game, outside, in a zone 1 location with half a dozen tube links nearby They didn't show the game out of respect to local residents... Our capital city is comatose

Please remember there are no outdoor screens showing the #EURO2024 final in central London. Many of the pubs are already full. If you were thinking of travelling in perhaps consider other options and remember to plan your journey home.

A young man approached me last night with little English but just enough to point to the 7 boxes of chocolates he'd just nicked from Hotel Chocolat and say "ten pounds for all" Sadiq Khan is right. London is for everyone. But that's the problem.

I want to remind Londoners that our city is—and always will be—a place for everyone. We’ll continue to celebrate London as the diverse, open and welcoming city it is.

More money, more staff, yet worse delivery. Why is the performance of our civil service seemingly in decline? A look at some statistics out today might provide an answer… Thread 🧵

The universal credit statistics out today are truly horrifying. They reveal that our benefits system and economy are broken Yet despite this extraordinary situation, Labour have spent the past year throwing fuel onto the fire Thread 🧵

There are four jobs at the bankrupt Birmingham City Council currently being advertised with salaries potentially higher than that of the head of the WHOLE civil service Local government is a shambles

Excellent speech from Conservative leader @KemiBadenoch on the welfare bill today. Impressive clarity on this issue And great to hear her cite @the_tpa new benefits dashboard - which reveals that people with conditions like acne and food intolerance are receiving benefits

BBC content could be soon forced onto your YouTube feed, whether you want to see it or not Here is how Ofcom is hoping to secure the future of our increasingly anachronistic broadcaster, by force feeding BBC content down the throats of the next generation A thread 🧵

Extraordinary story from @Tony_Diver With Reeves scrambling for cash surely scrapping this deal should be the first option the government reaches for. If they choose tax rises on British people instead it would show a hideous contempt of the voters who put them there

Fuck, and I mean this politely, off. We paid the director of the National Gallery almost 300 grand in 2022-23 and gave his institution 31 million in taxpayer cash How about in return not desecrating one of our greatest pieces of cultural heritage?

Pretty damning admission in DWP's latest annual report... "DWP no longer expects Universal Credit fraud and error to return to the levels seen before the significant increase during the COVID-19 pandemic, which it says is due to an increasing propensity for fraud in society. "
