"More joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who have no need of repentance." Unfortunately, today - thanks to Andy Haldane's over-regulation - the 99 probably work in compliance, suffocating the one poor risk taker and wealth creator!

@RachelGilmourLD, Lib Dem MP for Tiverton and Minehead spoke in the House of Commons debate marking the life and legacy of Jo Cox, who died 10 years ago just before the Brexit Referendum. Kim Leadbeater, Jo's sister and now an MP herself, spoke about the need to support young people who face so many challenges growing up. Rachel raised the Children's Parliament APPG, which she will be stepping into the role of Chair very soon. Rachel wants to use her role leading the Sir David Amess Legacy project, to keep Jo's ambitions alive for the next generation. #childrensparliament

A fantastic evening. Thank you to @Southend_Tories for organising such a good evening.
A huge thanks to Richard Holden MP for coming to (not so) sunny 🌦️ Southend yesterday for our fundraiser at the Beach Hut in Westcliff. Great company 🤝, good wine 🍷, perfect seaside views and it was fantastic to listen to Richard and hear all things Transport and Essex.

The Public Sector Equality Duty means that public servants prioritise "anti-racism", instead of doing their jobs. We saw this with Valdo Calocane. We saw this in Henry Nowak's case. We saw it with the grooming gangs. Kemi is right. We must bring back equality before the law.
The Public Sector Equality Duty has allowed identity politics, DEI bureaucracy and ideological box-ticking to take over our public services. Enough is enough. It's time to scrap it.

This is a blatant lie. It exposes how little Labour understand or care about this issue. The Equality Duty on public services is not the part of the Equality Act which protects pregnant women from being sacked. Protection against discrimination - whether you are pregnant, or disabled, or a black woman, or a white man - is totally separate. Those protections would remain. What the Equality Duty does is force our public services to obsess over diversity and prioritise that over their core purpose. It is the reason our prisons have been stopped from isolating Islamic terrorists. It is the reason our police services have mandated dangerous unconscious bias training and are being told to treat ethnic minorities differently. It is causing the public real harm. It has to go. Liz Kendall should apologise for spouting such sloppy lies.
🗣️ "It's turning the clock back to the past." As Tory leader Kemi Badenoch is to announce her desire to scrap the Public Sector Equality Duty, Technology Secretary @leicesterliz calls on her to lay out exactly what legal protections she wants to remove.

💯 This is what real leadership looks like 👇🏻
Every life matters. One law. One standard. For everyone.  This is about justice, for Henry, for his family and for all our children. They deserve better.

Last time Labour was in power it was the "I am afraid there is no money" note. Today's Mandelson release contains Pat McFadden stating: 'Every meeting I have is "who can we tax in order to pay benefits to others?"' It should serve as this Labour government's epitaph.

With regard to the conversation about whether a knife should be allowed because it is part of the national dress, Anna Firth is 100% correct. If it is capable of inflicting injury, it’s a knife! Common sense. Well said @Anna_Firth @GBNEWS

Labour entered government and ⬇️hiked employers National Insurance ⬇️hiked the minimum wage ⬇️loaded new regulations on businesses The result? Employers stopped hiring young people. @Conservatives will listen to business, back more apprenticeships and reduce tax and red tape.
