James Cleverly🇬🇧

This drop is because of the visa rule changes that I put in place. Labour will try to claim credit for these figures but they criticised me at the time, and have failed to fully implement the changes. #immigration

“I was furious, I genuinely couldn't believe he said...[that] there are plenty of houses around the UK for asylum seekers.” New shadow housing secretary @JamesCleverly says it's "toxic" the PM is "more interested" in accommodation for asylum seekers than young British workers.

Work brings dignity.   But Labour’s new Employment Rights Bill creates UNemployment.   When you load £5 billion in new costs onto employers, you destroy opportunity.

When the government sides with those who break the rules over those who follow them, don’t be surprised when public anger boils over. The Prime Minister’s out-of-touch remarks show exactly why trust is collapsing. 🔵 @JamesCleverly setting it out on @BBCBreakfast 📺

On the day of his comeback, am told that a group of Palestine protestors on the Terrace started chanting about David Lammy, prompting new Shad Housing Sec James Cleverly to shout back “He’s the other black one!”

Economics 101: people respond the incentives (and disincentives). Reeves’ tax raises are bringing in less tax, costing jobs, and dissuading investment. Labour’s economic incompetence is damaging the UK economy.

Seeing job losses is horrible, but we did warn that Labour’s increased employment taxes would cost jobs in the hospitality sector.

When taking a position of leadership the question one should ask oneself is “do I want to be something, or do I want to do something?” It’s increasingly clear that Starmer wanted to job title, not the job. The country deserves better.

Labour’s immoral family farm tax is destroying livelihoods and will wipe out generations of hard work. When the @Conservatives return to government, we will reverse it. No ifs, no buts. Standing up for our farmers is standing up for Britain.

Starmer is clueless or dishonest. (Possibly both)

Starmer promised no new taxes on working people. Then taxed farmers and small business owners, and all workers through employer NI. He's literally biting the hand that feeds him. Here's how Labour is risking the food on your table 🧵👇

Labour turned the sewage crisis into political theatre. But as suspected, it turns out they didn’t have a plan - and they’ve decided to use ours instead. 🧵A thread

He really is all over the place. He’s advocating state seizure of private assets, but thinks that will encourage private investment. Wants the state to intervene, but not run the businesses. And doesn’t have even a ballpark figure for the costs!

Reform will say anything to get elected. People vote Reform in good faith, but they’ll be let down.

I call bullshit. You’ve spent the last 48 hours calling me a ‘traitor’ for not drawing attention to a leaked spreadsheet with our special forces and MI6 officers’ names on. But we’re meant to believe this tweet attacking me as a traitor for having a Jewish wife & family was…

Eccleshall & Gnosall (Staffordshire) Council By-Election Result: 🌳 CON: 44.4% (+10.1) 🌍 GRN: 27.3% (+8.2) ➡️ RFM: 24.7% (-10.3) 🌹 LAB: 3.7% (-3.9) No LDM (-4.1) as previous. Conservative GAIN from Reform. Changes w/ 2025.

If Labour think you’re old enough to vote at 16 do they also think you’re old enough to stand for election at 16? If not, why not? If yes, and the 16 year old becomes an MP, how will they fit in their studies? Remember they can’t leave education until they’re 18.

Are Labour saying: Children should have the right to vote. Or 16 year olds are no longer children. Either answer opens a can of worms with regards to other rights and responsibilities for 16 and 17 year olds.
