WRONG. @SadiqKhan has more money to spend each year on policing whereas @BorisJohnson had £100 million less to spend each year in his 2nd term. The huge drop in @metpoliceuk officer numbers is because this @MayorofLondon does not have a budget plan.

Government cuts to policing mean police numbers are now the lowest they've been for 20 years. We're doing all we can to protect frontline officers by investing a record £138 million in the @metpoliceuk . It's time the Govt stepped up and reversed its cuts.

Today’s ⁦ @Telegraph ⁩ is worth a close read. The decision on the future of ⁦ @DominicRaab ⁩ is down to PM ⁦ @RishiSunak ⁩ + him alone. As a former minister, I know how easy it is for a few wet + work shy civil servants to accuse ministers of ‘bullying’ + misogyny. 👇

Privileges Committee can’t get their facts right PLUS are they now trying to silence the press? Conservative Post is NOT the online magazine of CDO as claimed in their First Special Report which was released this morning....

We move to Report Stage of the Building Safety Bill this month in @UKHouseofLords when @luhc will table more amendments to protect leaseholders who are victims in this #BuildingSafetyCrisis + above all, to get the polluter rather than the taxpayer to pay.

I voiced my growing concerns to ⁦⁦ @adamboultonTABB ⁩ on @TimesRadio about the #PrivilegesCommittee + that #Boris could face a parliamentary ‘witch hunt’. My fervent hope as a parliamentarian is that the process will be fair. We will find out soon.

The eyes of the world are on the members of the @HouseofCommons Privileges Committee. Any verdict on the conduct of @BorisJohnson needs to withstand the scrutiny of the court of public opinion. This is telling.👇

Here is @RishiSunak telling the HoC that he did not attend any parties Yes he was asked about a specific event but that doesn’t matter to the #privilegescommittee hearing for @BorisJohnson One rule for one and another for another?? That sounds fair 🙄

More leasehold reform is coming + @RobertJenrick will make announcements with regard to enfranchisement + commonhold shortly. Finally I acknowledged at the despatch box that being a co-owner or commonholder is a better form of tenure than being a leaseholder.👇

Leasehold Minister @team_greenhalgh confirms he is taking Fleecehold practices very seriously. Baronness Jones asks for clarification that leasehold reforms mean moving to Commonhold and Lord Bourne doesn't want existing leaseholders forgotten. #leaseholdscandal @LKPleasehold

Shocking that the construction industry is still trying to game the system and cut corners on fire safety. @pauljennings19 is right to call this out.

EXCL: Assistant Commissioner of London Fire Brigade @pauljennings19 tells me hundreds of buildings are still being built *today* with some of the building safety issues which are plaguing leaseholders- that in many cases there hasn’t been a change in developer culture.

#PrivilegesCommitee shifting the goalposts on burden of proof required to sanction #Boris . Point made so eloquently by @zatzi to @danwootton on @GBNEWS . There’s no evidence that @BorisJohnson knowingly or “recklessly” misled @HouseofCommons . Time to move on….. @ConsPost

I spent 20 years as a youth worker helping give young Londoners a fresh start in life. And right now, London needs a fresh start too. Safe streets. Affordable homes. A bigger, better (not bankrupt) transport network. Lower taxes. I have a plan. Watch here to find out more 👇🏿

I hope that this story of a #CCHQ plan to axe @Conservatives associations as ‘punishment’ for election of @trussliz is just the Westminster bubble at work. If there is such a plan, @greghands should put it in the bin.

Key findings of the ⁦ @EOCS_Official ⁩ Dereliction of Duty report on a single page. The charge sheet includes: 1/ Poor communication with leaseholders 2/ Lack of transparency on remediation costs 3/ Lack of consistency on what costs HAs will fund.
