And it's lights out and away we go!

Existing election law works for the age of print, and it doesn't work online. Was good to speak to @politicshome about AI disinformation, and how it highlights the whopping gaps in how we regulate and enforce conduct of elections 👇 https://t.co/yTYvQTMJBX

New ‘chillingly good’ AI image tools like Google’s Veo 3 are making disinformation easier than ever. Toothless and fractured regulators are struggling to keep pace, reports @matilda__martin https://t.co/lnaZWkdeGX

THAT'S A WRAP for CPF #CPC2025. Thank you to everyone who joined workshops on Health, Education, Housing, Main Stage events and Bill-Off, chatted in the Lounge or filmed an elevator pitch. Huge enthusiasm from members and leaders all wanting us to go further faster. Let's go!

Dame Jilly Cooper, 1937–2025. Thank you for the stories, always.

🗣️ @FrancesLasok "The thing that will kill climate policy is it becoming a culture war wedge issue "

Perfectly chosen cocktail this evening to raise a glass to the mind behind "Riders", "Rivals" and "The Man Who Made Husbands Jealous": Dame Jilly Cooper 🥂🐕

Great to chat through member policy questions on transport policy with Richard Holden yesterday - watch this space 🚅🚍🛣️

Policy workshop on fixing housing: tools to build, tools to form community consent, why most people are MIMBYs (Maybe In My Backyard)...and how to persuade them. With Paul Startin, Alex Balkan, Katy Bourne, Kimberley Harmer, Jessica Stewart 🏡🏗️🌇

Party Conference kick-off with Education, with pitches on skills and jobs, edtech for parents and work placements to panellists @DamianHinds, Meg Powell-Chandler and @anthonyboutall - keep the ideas coming 💡

Great to speak on the Education panel with @DamianHinds & Meg Powell-Chandler just now at #CPC25, hosted by Frances Lasok & @JohnPenroseNews. The members’ policy suggestions were fascinating & opened up a great discussion! Thanks to all those who came along. 🎧

Saving the planet and the party: could a greener shade of blue be the key to winning over young voters? We discuss whether a greener shade of blue is the key to winning over young people and securing the party's future.​ 🗣️ @ReemAmirIbrahim, @FrancesLasok, @JamesRCowling,

When Lord @David_Cameron brought forward Same-Sex Marriage, it wasn’t in spite of being a conservative - but *because* he was a conservative. Real conservatives should delight in gay couples wanting to make these commitments and build roots. Listen to some of our team here👇

Snapshots from the past fortnight: 100+ in discussion in the South West, 300+ professional applications to our new Expert Groups (apply now!), 80+ women at our experimental Girls’ Night Out. That’s not even all - huge appetite for grassroots, conservative, policy formation 🌟

I refuse to be lectured by a man, who is on marriage #3, that my relationship is less important or valuable than his because we are men Jake and I will make excellent parents. We will provide a home for a child stuck in the horrors of the care system. How dare you @Nigel_Farage

Riotous and fun event tonight with guest speakers Mims Davies and Louise Brice, led by Deputy Director Selaine Saxby and Frances Lasok, on encouraging more women into CPF. We were joined by new attendees from across the UK - come and join us, shape the future, have fun 🌟

Thinking today about Douglas Carswell back in 2014, an idealistic man with talent. And the way the light slowly started to die in his eyes as he realised he'd left a party to sign up to the Nigel Farage show, and had no way out. https://t.co/2Sdb0AsJg2

Bernie Sanders on the political assassination of Charlie Kirk: "Political violence, in fact, is political cowardice." "It means you cannot convince people of the correctness of your ideas, & you have to impose them by force."
