- At PMQs today, @KemiBadenoch exposed a glaring weakness at the heart of the Government’s defence policy: they have no credible plan to pay for it. With war in Europe and growing instability across the Middle East, national security cannot be an afterthought. Yet the Chief of the
- I was deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend Kanya King CBE MBE this week. Kanya was a visionary who transformed British music through the @MOBOAwards and opened doors for countless artists. We worked together to promote diversity and inclusion across the creative
- I was astonished this morning, the Solicitor General couldn’t answer simple questions about the wide-ranging changes their government are making to jury trials. The Solicitor General couldn't explain what legal safeguards exist under Labour's plans to change jury trials. If

- Another blistering performance from @KemiBadenoch at PMQs. She rightly challenged Labour’s decision to block new North Sea oil and gas licences yesterday. New licences would cut reliance on imports, protect 200,000+ jobs, and generate billions in tax revenue. Instead, the
- Conservatives, working with drivers, have forced Chancellor Rachel Reeves into yet another U-turn by scrapping her plan to increase fuel duty. Whilst in Government, the @Conservatives froze or cut fuel duty for 14 years in a row. The fact that Labour wished to increase it
- This is what TRUE LEADERSHIP looks like!
00:00 - Today, the Government set out their plans for the future of Britain in the King’s Speech. Yet, while the Prime Minister fights his own party for his political future, the proposals outlined today lack the vision, energy, and necessary action to revive our country, just as his
