This week I went on @GBNEWS to defend the statue of my ancestor, Robert Clive. @ThangamDebb calls to remove it are a sign of a country losing confidence in itself, and its history. From a small island on the edge of Europe, Britain built an empire with ingenuity, daring, and

I’ve been glad to defend the statue of my ancestor, Robert Clive, from calls from @ThangamDebb to remove it this week. Removing statues doesn’t change our history - it hides it. We must pass on Britain’s extraordinary legacy, positive and negative, to future generations.
"Clive was flawed, but we shouldn’t judge him by 21st-century morals.". Robert Clive’s legacy must be viewed in the context of his time, not modern standards, so his statue should remain, says his descendant @JWindsorClive. @HugoRifkind | #TimesRadio

We all know @Nigel_Farage’s ideal Cabinet would look something like this. No room for talented people amidst his giant ego!
11 months ago I became Chairman of Reform. I’ve worked full time as a volunteer to take the party from 14 to 30%, quadrupled its membership and delivered historic electoral results. I no longer believe working to get a Reform government elected is a good use of my time, and.

Speaking English is vital for integration. @UKLabour are missing the point though. It is not a question of the speaking standard required, but an issue of enforcing that standard. Many people are clearly circumventing the system without even GCSE-level English. #Immigration.

Great to hear my cousin Tom speak about our grandfathers’ exploits during the VE Day celebrations over the weekend. Truly inspiring stories of courage. #VEDay80 #ColdstreamGuards.
'Listening to veterans and learning from their stories is very special!'. @MartinDaubney speaks with Captain Tom Windsor-Clive, whose family has been part of the Coldstream Guards for 200 years, about today's VE Day celebrations.
