Vladimir Putin is a warmongering dictator who has mercilessly waged an unprovoked war of imperialist aggression against Ukraine for four years. The Russian people, too, continue to suffer the economic and human cost of Putin’s deadly vanity project. Now is the time to tighten the vice and bring an end to the horrors of this war.

John Healey has done the whole of Britain a great service. He has reminded us that the first duty of any government is the protection of our country and its people. It is non-discretionary and non-negotiable. Unlike other areas of expenditure like welfare, health or education, when it comes to defence, we must spend whatever is necessary to meet the external threats we face.

Defence projects are complex and often take a great deal of time to reach fruition, which is why we need a stable and predictable budget. Industry needs certainty if it is to make the adjustments and investment to provide the capabilities on which our Armed Forces will depend. The economic mismanagement under Labour, coupled with the constant pandering to their high spending left-wing and the debilitating instability of the perpetual leadership battles, is making such stability virtually impossible.

John Healey has behaved in a brave and honourable way, sacrificing his position in an acknowledgement that the Prime Minister and the Chancellor had left him with no other choice. Today we have had confirmation that the Labour Party can no longer be trusted with the defence and security of our country. It is as tragic as it is frightening.

On the anniversary of this terrible tragedy the families need closure, Parliament needs the facts, and service personnel need to know there are mechanisms in place to make sure it can’t happen again.

Congratulations to @RepJoeWilson and @HudsonInstitute for exposing how a Russian stooge government is following Putin’s pro-Iran agenda. It is great that we have rigorous and independent institutions to expose and counter the propaganda of Putin’s puppets.
Outrageous that Georgia’s terrorist lover puppet Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze is threatening the Hudson Institute for exposing Georgian Dream’s deep support for Iranian terrorism that kills Americans. I stand with the @HudsonInstitute and @LukeDCoffey

The people of Ukraine are being betrayed and the people of Britain humiliated by one of our worst governments ever. Easing up on Russian oil while failing to develop Britain’s own resources shows how we are scraping the bottom of the intellectual and moral barrels under Labour.
So now Britain will ease up on Russian sanctions helping fund the murderous war against the people of Ukraine. Is there anything or anyone who will not be sacrificed on the altar of Starmer’s pathetic political survival? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy42…

Here are the trade facts👇 The EU has become a smaller proportion of UK exports as the rest of the global economy has grown faster. Rejoining is a metropolitan liberal fetish not supported by the facts. Although, given how useless this Labour government is, it is no surprise some cabinet ministers would rather be governed by Brussels.

Kemi Badenoch showed why she is the real Prime Minister-in-waiting with a confident and inspiring speech in the Commons today. Together with the Alternative King’s speech published by the Conservatives, it shows how dramatically she has started to change the party.

Starmer’s big survival speech was visionless, detail free and boring. A textbook example of why he is here in the first place. If Labour MPs can’t make the right diagnosis now they never will.

I condemn these terrorist attacks from the Polisario Front which are deeply destabilising to the region. Morocco is a partner of enormous value to the UK and the US, and a pillar of regional stability 🇲🇦
We condemn the attacks by Polisario Front in Smara.   Such violence threatens regional stability and the progress made towards peace.   These actions are inconsistent with the spirit of the recent talks.   The time to end this 50-year-old dispute is now.   As affirmed in UNSCR 2797, the Moroccan Autonomy Proposal lays out the path to peace in Western Sahara.  We call on all those resisting peace to genuinely commit to a brighter future. The status quo cannot continue.
