🏴🇬🇧Proudly serving my home community of Old Bexley & Sidcup in Westminster. Shadow Minister for Sport, Gambling and Civil Society ⚽️🎾🏉🏏🥊🐎
I'm proud to be English 🏴 We must never be ashamed of our history or identity. Let's remind the world that England is not a sleeping lion. It's a great and proud nation, ready to roar again.
Thank you @LondonFire for putting out this fire out in Blackfen.
The fire in #Sidcup is now under control but crews will remain on scene damping down. Blackfen Road remains closed & some bus routes will continue to be affected. Please avoid the area while we work to make the scene safe london-fire.gov.uk/incidents/2025… (📷earlier in incident)
Another shocking example of how our country will be paying the price for this inept Labour Government for decades to come. The auction system was introduced to lower the cost of renewables to taxpayers. But developers are now laughing all the way to the bank because of Red Ed👇🏻
🚨BREAKING🚨 Maximum strike prices for Ed Miliband's missing wind auction are out. Gruesome. Offshore wind: £113/MWh Higher than last year. Highest in a decade. And that's before all the extra costs of grid, backup, and wasted wind. As a comparison, the average cost of…
Thank you @louie_french for showing your support, not only by signing the letter, but for also joining us yesterday before we handed it in! #HerbiesLaw #KinderScience
I have always shared our local community's passion for animals and I want to see animal testing phased out of research ASAP. I have signed this cross party letter calling on the Government to build on the work of previous governments and help end it. animalfreeresearchuk.org/over-30-cross-…
England are in the final! 🏴 Congratulations @Lionesses 🦁
The Lionesses are THROUGH to the final of Euro 2025! 👏🦁 #WEuro2025 #WomensEuros
The King and Queen met a number of senior racing figures and were even introduced to three-time Gold Cup winner Stradivarius
🗣️ "The King went to give Stradivarius some polos and I just hoped he wouldn't take his fingers off" The King and Queen paid their first official visit to Newmarket on Tuesday 👑
Thank you to the @LondonFire for their ongoing efforts to put out this fire in Blackfen. Please follow their advice 👇🏻
There are now eight fire engines and around 60 firefighters at the fire in #Sidcup. A building under renovation is alight and producing a lot of smoke - please keep windows & doors closed & avoid the area where possible london-fire.gov.uk/incidents/2025…
Best of luck to the @Lionesses in tonight’s semi final 🏴 We will all be cheering you on!

As I said last week at @ukonward, we are closer the cliff edge than the Govt will admit 🔴 Labour are borrowing too much 🔴 The cost of borrowing is too high 🔴 They have lost control of their backbenchers so cannot cut costs
June Borrowing Higher Than Expected at £20.7 Billion order-order.com/2025/07/22/jun…
No idea Keir strikes again 🤦🏻♂️
There are 1.3 million people on social housing waiting lists in England alone. But Keir Starmer believes there’s ‘lots of housing’ spare we should be giving to illegal migrants That’s madness. What is he going on about?
A country that can’t feed itself cannot be truly secure. That’s why farming matters. Food security is national security.
Another busy day campaigning in Bromley and Holwood for our excellent @Conservatives candidate Ian F Payne! Thanks to m’colleague @louie_french for his support today. Remember to vote for Ian this Thursday to help keep #Bromley safe from Labour’s attack on our green spaces!
It’s fiscal fantasy to propose major policies such as water nationalisation without at least some idea of how much it might cost taxpayers. More Fantasy Economics from Reform.
Another fantastic @TheOpen tournament with strong performances by a number of British players. A masterclass by 2025 Champion Scottie Scheffler Thank you to all the organisers and volunteers at @royalportrush @RandA
Champion Golfer of the Year.
Labour inherited a recovering economy. One year later: it’s bleeding out. Starmer and Reeves crashed the car with their budget but haven’t learned the lesson: You can’t tax your way to growth. Britain can’t afford any more high taxes. We need to cut spending. Now.
Vote Reform = Get Corbyn Farage, the opportunist, is good at saying what’s wrong, but always falls apart when asked “how” to fix it.
"So you don't know how much it would be in any ballpark?" #BBCLauraK asks Reform UK leader Nigel Farage about his proposals to nationalise 50% of the water industry "Of course not" replies Farage but says "it doesn't need to be a big sum of money" bbc.in/44WXpgI
A real pleasure to join our friends at the @Dartford_CA yesterday for their summer BBQ. It was great to meet new members of the Conservative Party who share our core values of aspiration, education, personal freedom and a smaller state.

Labour caught talking crap yet again👇🏻
Well what an incredible morning this is going to be. Labour govt trumpeting a long list of stuff they claim they've done to deal with the water industry. Tories say they just nicked their old policies, thing is the Tories are right. Example. 1. All sewage overflows to have…
🎬 Recently, I visited Sky Studios in West London with the Shadow DCMS team. It was inspiring to see the talent, creativity and innovation at the heart of one of the UK’s leading broadcasters.
🏉Ahead of the first test match, the Shadow DCMS team had the pleasure of going behind the scenes at @SkySports to see how Sky produce their excellent coverage and analysis for fans. We will be cheering on the lads this morning. Come on you Lions! 🦁
