Farmers have been arrested today for standing up to the budget But we won’t be silenced…

Always good to catch up with Robert Martin & George Dunn from the Tenant Farmers Association in Westminster - to talk through the current challenges facing our tenanted sector. The IHT changes are causing huge uncertainty for many tenant farmers - and that, coupled with the

False and dangerous. In West Yorkshire alone, the Casey Audit identified a clear “over-representation of people of Asian ethnic background (roughly double) and disproportionately under-representation of people of White ethnicity (roughly half)” in grooming gang suspects (p.84)

Today, I urged @ShabanaMahmood and @annelongfield to immediately launch a targeted local inquiry across Keighley and the Bradford District. Time is of the essence and the Casey Audit is clear that local investigations can commence sooner in areas where the Home Office agree

The British people will fight them, we will stop them, and we will overturn them... Say NO to Digital ID. An honour to open today’s petitions debate on behalf of 3 million people up and down the United Kingdom. Here’s what I had to say 👇

Grooming gang survivors have been denied appropriate support and help for decades. Its important the government starts to address this issue immediately, this shouldnt wait untill an inquiry is done. It could and should be done along side.

The government’s response to my concerns: “We expect this to be the case” - As always, a very-long winded way of saying no. Not good enough. The government is not even getting the basics right

The Baroness Casey Audit published in June made it very clear “Local authorities, police forces and other relevant agencies should in the meantime be required not to destroy any relevant records.” (p.51) So why has this not been acted on?

🚨NEW: The government has failed to instruct police forces & councils to protect key grooming gang records before the national inquiry begins.  One the most basic safeguards imaginable and they still haven’t acted.  Here’s what I’ve found 👇

Brilliant to be in Lincoln this morning speaking with many farmers, rural businesses, industry leaders, accountants, solicitors, bank managers and many other rural stakeholders at Brown & Co’s Winter Seminar chaired by Charlie Bryant. Now more than ever is certainty and clarity

The government need to be held to account on their promise to ‘smash the gangs’. Over the past two days, I have been in France as part of an important Home Affairs Select Committee investigation into illegal immigration and border security. Throughout Tuesday, I met with UK

Smashing the gangs? Currently on day two of an important Home Affairs Select Committee visit to France scrutinising the government’s approach to illegal immigration and their approach to ‘smashing the gangs’. Yesterday, I met with French police, operational and border security

It doesn’t make sense… Just 3% of the British public think Labour’s budget will makethem better off. Yet Labour MPs are out on TV absolutely loving it. It is getting clearer by the day… This budget was never meant to please hardworking taxpayers. It was meant to please

The Met Police have serious questions to answer. Who told them to cancel the pre organised farming rally on Budget Day at the 11th hour?

I have written to The Metropolitan Police Commissioner, Sir Mark Rowley, expressing my serious concerns about how yesterday’s farming protest was managed👇

The message from the Chancellor today couldn’t be clearer: 👉 Don’t save for your future or your pension – Labour will tax it 👉 Don’t take the leap of setting up your own business – Labour will tax it 👉 Don’t work hard to get that pay rise – Labour will tax it 👉 And

The Chancellor has only tweaked her vindictive Family Farm and Family Business Taxes to allow a spousal transfer. This is nowhere near enough to fix the damage she has caused👇

Heartless. A year of anxiety, uncertainty and desperate pleas from our farming community. And yet continued ignorance to those pleas from the Prime Minister and Chancellor, who have actively chosen to oversee the decline of British food and farming with their family farm tax
