Borrowing under Labour has broken a new record and is even higher than the OBR forecasted. Come the Budget, our country will be facing a very real black hole of the Chancellor’s own making.  With Labour - it's always the same old story and we all know how it ends👇

Delighted to see Lincolnshire’s own Ollie Chessum named in the Lions squad for today’s first Test. A huge achievement for a brilliant talent. Wishing him and the team the very best of luck against Australia! #Lions2025

In an increasingly dangerous world, Grantham is playing a vital role in our national defence. Prince William of Gloucester Barracks is training the next generation of the British Army Reserve. Having met the latest recruits, I know that they will make our country proud 🇬🇧

When Labour aren’t raising eyebrows, they’re raising taxes. At #PMQs today, and in the studio afterwards, Labour refused to rule out pushing more people into higher rates of income tax. We all know what that means 👇

I strongly agree with @GarethDavies_MP that "Now is not the time to be closing one of our foremost Army training establishments" (garethdavies.co.uk/news/column-ba…) . I know well how important are the barracks' strategic transport links, and training and facilities for the Army Reserve.

The ONS confirms it: rising business costs, including the government’s National Insurance hike, are fuelling inflation. This is costing families across the country. We cannot afford Labour.

This is the energy industry’s biggest crisis to date. And it’s being engineered by this blinkered Labour Government. “There’s nothing just or fair about relying on costly foreign imports rather than our own oil and gas at home” 👇 energyvoice.com/oilandgas/5761…

On Thursday, @GarethDavies_MP met with Oil and Gas companies, alongside me, in Aberdeen. The technology and the skilled workforce is here, ready to power Britain’s future and the transition. But we risk losing all that due to current Govt policy. The Govt must listen and act. Now

OEUK hosted @GarethDavies_MP and @AndrewBowie_MP in our Aberdeen office to discuss the important work happening across our energy landscape. Decisions made in the coming months that will shape our energy landscape and economy for decades to come.

The message from the offshore energy industry in Aberdeen yesterday was loud and clear – help us or lose us. Both of Scotland’s governments should be working with the industry, not against them, but meetings with @AndrewBowie_MP emphasised the disastrous implications if this…

NEW: GDP figures show a drop to -0.1% in May. According to the Chancellor HERSELF (!), if the Cabinet comes back from their Away Day in Buckinghamshire today “with anything less than an Emergency Budget, they’ve failed.” Good spot @julianHjessop - there’s always a tweet!👇

Just watched Keir Starmer u-turn on himself in real time at #PMQs First he says he won’t increase income tax – but in the very next answer he won’t commit to ending the fiscal drag which would pull people into higher rates of income tax! Insincere Keir.

The hike in employers’ National Insurance isn’t just a burden on businesses, it’s hammering charities too. The sector now faces an extra £1.4 billion in annual costs. That means fewer staff, reduced services, and thousands of vulnerable people going without vital support.

A patriot. A Thatcherite warrior. The embodiment of duty. Wounded in the Brighton bombing, he never wavered. Thatcher called him “one of my most loyal and courageous friends.” A true Conservative to his core. 🇬🇧

Mandating capital allocation risks undermining fiduciary duty, the very principle that pension trustees are legally bound to uphold. Instead of coercion, we should focus on the underlying reasons why domestic and high-growth UK assets remain under-allocated.

We all agree that changes to the health and disability benefit system are needed, but the Government has made a mess. While their Bill might appease left-wing Labour backbenchers for now, it won’t save the taxpayer a single penny. I wanted to provide some clarity👇

Starmer may have got the numbers but not the authority. He as lost control of his party, forcing U-turns that will increase spending instead of saving. @GarethDavies_MP lays it out on @GBNEWS
