Kent Conservatives
@KentTories
Keeping you up to date with the work of MPs, Officers, Cllrs and Associations. Promoted by Kent Area of the Conservative and Unionist Party.
Keir Starmer’s visionless, managed decline of this country is harming our future. @KemiBadenoch is the only leader with a bold, optimistic vision for Britain. spkl.io/6018AGsHj
It should not be easier to have a large family on benefits than through work. But that is what Labour and Reform MPs want - more handouts, funded by borrowing and taxes. Do you think this is fair? spkl.io/6016AEFnw
Some reflections on #English #devolution following last Thursday’s Bill and an excellent (and perfectly-timed) seminar organised by @ConUnit_UCL open.substack.com/pub/goughr/p/e…
The Edu Sec called vital RHSE guidance 'partisan.' It’s not partisan to protect children from age-inappropriate content or safeguard women & girls. It appears Labour have weakened age limits & schools are still waiting for guidance on gender questioning children. Not good enough.
Labour scraps Tory plan to put age restriction on sex education in primary schools that would have stopped under-nines being taught trib.al/wWDYpQ4
Labour is in chaos over their broken pledge to hire 6,500 more teachers. There are 400 fewer. Labour promised taxing education would fund new staff, but the money’s being used to house illegal migrants. It’s no surprise MPs say there's no clear plan. rb.gy/jq0vqu
What do left-wing Labour, Lib Dem, Green, SNP and Reform MPs have in common? They all voted to spend more on welfare with no plan to pay for it. That’s not fairness. It’s immoral and totally unsustainable.
Keir Starmer is facing a massive rebellion from his own MPs over his Welfare Bill. If he needs Conservatives MPs to get it done, we'll support it. On three clear conditions: spkl.io/6015A6s7W
Not only did Labour label our Freedom of Speech Act a ‘Tory hate speech charter’, but one of the first acts of the Education Secretary was to try and quietly shelve it. This u-turn is credit to all the campaigners who fought back to protect free speech.
Thank you to everyone who fought to bring back our Freedom of Speech Act. This is why we did it. An important win for free speech and academic freedom.
Conservatives lead for ANOTHER quarter on donations. Proof that @KemiBadenoch's once in a generation renewal of the Party is well underway. spkl.io/6014f7xIC
Shocking if true – but reality is the opposite. Looks like this is not @Kent_cc spending council tax payers’ money but reflects @CS_Kent recruitment business. Opposition Leaders - @favershamfocus, @RichLehmann, Harry Rayner, Alister Brady - ask @Kent_cc to clarify publicly (1/2)
Wow. Kent County Council tendered a contract for recruitment services for £350 million over 4 years. That’s £87.5 million per year of taxpayer money being spent on “advertising vacancies” and “interviewing” people. That’s a staggering 22% of their annual payroll. What a racket
"Nigel Farage must never be Prime Minister." WATCH: Ex-Reform MP @RupertLowe10's damning verdict on his former boss. spkl.io/6016f2BxG
Congratulations to Harry Rayner, new Conservative Group Leader at @Kent_cc and the new Group Deputy Leader, Claudine Russell. Together they will lead a @Conservatives team holding the new administration to account from day one and protecting Kent. 💙🌳🇺🇦🇬🇧 #ConservativeValues
Polls are now closed for the local elections for KCC and the by-election in Snodland. To all our volunteers, canvassers, doorknockers, activists, members, supporters and voters... Thank you! spkl.io/6018fLtI2
Thank you for your commitment to Kent and the Elham Valley Division. You will be a hard act to follow and I will miss you terribly as a friend and colleague at all the Parish Council Meetings we regularly attended. I wish you a long and happy retirement @KentTories
My final meeting at County Hall as I’m standing down at the elections on 01 May. I’ve been at the School Transport Appeal Panel. It’s also the final formal meeting at @Kent_cc of this 4 year term. Work outside formal meetings continues but it feels a significant moment.
I will continue to oppose any anti-traffic, anti-business schemes that threaten the viability of Cheriton High Street. #Cheriton @KentTories @FHConservatives @Conservatives @CCACllrs
Nigel Farage’s key backer and mayoral candidate in the west country wants to give your nan a “harsh realignment.” Disagree? Vote Conservative on 1st May. spkl.io/6016fI49p
