My biggest goal on becoming a Councillor was to serve those in my ward. The leader of my party was not even a consideration.
I get asked what my biggest goal is politically and truthfully, it’s getting Nigel Farage into Number 10. This man oozes PATRIOTISM, COMMON SENSE and the CHARISMA to go to battle for us on the world stage. This is the PM we need to MAKE BRITAIN BREAT AGAIN!. @reformparty_uk.

Doctors are just about to go on strike. Assume he won't use this as an excuse for an inevitable rise in waiting lists? He's comparing a period when doctors were striking to a period after they were bought off. Now he either has to buy them off again or see waiting lists go up.
This year was the first May in 17 years in which waiting lists fell. Sounds familiar? Because we cut waiting lists in April too. Proof that our Plan for Change is working.

Weird way to say you're going on another holiday.
This morning I am out in the English Channel. Updates to follow.

Haven't seen the Conservative and Unionist Party so united in quite some time. When you speak to grassroots members, they are passionate and loyal to the party. Yes, some ex-MPs may go, but we needed renewal and removing the rot was essential.

You caved once. They know you'll do it again. Labour can't negotiate.
The BMA Resident Doctors Committee still refuses to meet me. After a 28.9% pay rise, they say another 29% is “non-negotiable.”. This is not the way a reasonable trade union behaves.

"Most Tories aren't welcome". You just welcomed an ex-MP who is pro-EU and pro-Net zero. What possible exceptions have you got?.
🔴 The Reform chief whip says most of the Tory parliamentary party would only want to cross the floor to “save their jobs”. Read more ⬇️.

If I went to live abroad, I would not expect instant access to their welfare system. In the same way, I don't think someone who comes to our country should be able to access benefits immediately on securing their indefinite leave to remain.

Labour shouted and screamed while in opposition in Swindon. They told us that they would come in and sort everything with the Oasis. They had no plans, only promises.

I remember when Douglas Carswell and Mark Reckless defected to UKIP and people said the Conservative Party was done. The Conservatives went on to win the next General Election. Jake Berry isn't even a sitting MP.

"We can’t just tax our way to growth," said Keir Starmer. OK, so what has his government been doing? Raising taxes and stunting growth.

Starmer folded last time they went on strike. They tasted blood and have come back for more. When Labour negotiates, the taxpayer loses.
🚨NEW: Resident Doctors (previously Junior Doctors) have voted to strike, with 90.05% in favor and 9.95% against.

RIP Lord Tebbit. Giant of his age who helped bring Britain back onto its feet.
Norman Tebbit, one of Margaret Thatcher’s most loyal supporters during her years of power, has died at the age of 94. Read more ⬇️.
