What a day of sports what a day. Football; England women win beating Spain, Eng Cricket; draw (one up,one to ply). AND Luke Littler, 18, 18! wins the world darts match play championship. All great events 4 different reasons.

The govt must "force" asylum seekers 2b relocated out of hotels & into transit areas where claims etc can be assessed. Making them.himless just pits an unfair statutory pressure on hard financially strapped LAs unfaily burdening local residents. UKGov must protect residents.

The prison crisis must be assisted by a new law. Any foreign national convicted & given more than say 24 months is deported immediately with no "repatriation fear" to apply. And if they return at all, they are arrested and re - deported. Why waste £ millions on foreign criminals?

Sundays used 2b the quiet end of the week & prep for Monday.....BUT today it's Test cricket from 11 all day, Footie final this afternoon (great, good fortune to the Lionesse's against Spain), & then tonight, it's the world match play Darts with Young Littler. Root, shoot, Luke!

It is not a policing issue if good folks, decent ordinary people, are opposed to asylum, immigration seekers bring housed in the community. And by extension, the failure of govt to halt potentially dangerous groups illegally coming to UK. This reaction is way over the top.

No more hotels or houses in the community for migrant / asylum seekers. There are servi able ex military sites away from communities. Can't govt at least protect our communities with sensible basic holding camps?

Oh, to be out in Harefield, one of our favourite spots, delivering a great positive message with fellow Cllrs & other friends: Ian, Philip, Matthew. Archan, Jonathan, David, Festus and Peter (Spielberg)! campaiging with friends always a joy.

If Western countries recognise a "Palestinian state" itll be a massive act of self harm. Increasing numbers of Pal supporters will seek to reshap the West. Pal is dedicated to the destruction of Isreal, as has been seen. Sides have to b taken. History wont judge this well.

The govt fail to understand concerns of ordinary decent folk. 2 many illilegal immigrants / asylum seekers who rn't, possibly a risk x many issues. They want 2 protest, they are not far right, foolish others call them so. If the courts r used to clamp down...look out.

Now look @UKLabour @Conservatives could someone pls nominate both Joe Root and Jonathan Agnew for knighthoods for services to cricket! Both deserve such an accolade for different reasons. It just needs doing and soon! @TheBarmyArmy @englandcricket @bbctms

There are not "lots of homes" for asylum seekers, in LAs! If there are lots of homes standing idle, local folks need 2b housed first. We "govt," is really losing its way.

The UK Govt needs to pause & reflect on its relationship with France. Recognising a "State" that has a heath system run by murderous terrorists is not a proper move on any scale!

Just driven from Ruislip to Hemel, H'd. The road sirfaces in Hertfordshire r awful, especially abound "Bushy Arches" & Watford. Large surface scars everywhere. Coming @hertscc get a roads resurfacing scheme going.

The underfunding of the Crim Justice system began many years ago & got worse over time. There is now a perfect storm. Overpopulated prisons, 2 many "foreign" prisoners who must b deported, the courts system in listing free fall, so judges,Crimbar & sols struggle on, best we can.

Sadiq Khan closed Uxbridge Police Station and people had to travel to Hayes to report a crime. The Labour Mayor of London is now planning on closing Hayes Police Station front counter - abandoning Hillingdon residents again - despite increasing levels of crime under his watch.

What is @MayorofLondon Khan think he is doing? Police stations r part of the community. Hillingdon was reduced to the police station at Hayes. Now Khan is closing that. Proof that Labour care not for LBH residents! Will D. Beales MP stand up for residents? You know he won't.

Second day running out on the campaign trail. This time in Uxbridge. Really good positive Conservative support on the door steps. Many folk apauled at Labour MPs failure to support the campaign > Mt Vernon ECU closure & his dismissle of residents concerns.

Amazon Delivery Driveds again pitting the public at risk. Another Amazon delivery van parked on Zig Zag lines broke a Z crossing blocking sight lines. This is dangerous & against RT laws. What is wrong with Amazon that they risk members of the public. Educate your drivers!

There are a lot of differences between us and Labour (and Reform). Here’s just one: the Conservatives plan to scrap the Family Business Tax.

Out and about in Harefield today. Absolutely pouring down, but really good discussions with residents. Picking up issues to work on and v good engagement. Out with good friends, which is always a joy.
