🚗 £8.3bn extra to improve our roads, enough to resurface over 5,000 miles of road 💥 The biggest *ever* funding boost for local road improvements 🗓️ A long-term, 11 year plan to resurface roads 🇬🇧 This is only possible due to @RishiSunak making the right, long-term decisions

Payday is here. Our second National Insurance cut hits payslips today. Taken together, they’re worth £900 to someone earning the UK average salary.

Sadiq Khan's pay-per-mile plans would be a disaster for London. Vote for me on Thursday, so we can stop them.

Labour should be straight with people. How would their plan to "set targets" to “shift” people out of cars work? In London, Labour’s ULEZ expansion taxed the poorest off the roads - is that their plan for the country?

The secret is out: Sadiq Khan has plans for a pay-per-mile tax. As Mayor, I will put his plans in the bin.

We’re taking defence spending to 2.5% of GDP. The biggest strengthening of our national defence for a generation.

US House support for $60bn funding for Ukraine is a vital step forward. If Putin ever doubted the West's resolve to back Ukraine, this shows our collective will is undimmed. With support, Ukraine can and will win. #StandWithUkraine

We’ve seen a worrying trend in our welfare system. More and more people are being written off work unnecessarily, and spending is growing at an unsustainable rate. So we’re doing something about it🧵

This Government is committed to supporting train manufacturing in our country. This is an issue too important for political point scoring, so I have written to the Shadow Transport Secretary following repeated inaccurate comments about this subject 👇
