It is my honour to have been elected the new Conservative councillor for Mottingham, Coldharbour and New Eltham along with Matt Hartley and Roger Tester! #Conservative

If we want real growth, we need abundant home-grown energy. It is mutually inclusive. And nuclear power delivers both - by unlocking investment, creating new jobs and diversifying our energy supply with a reliable, clean energy source. Key to the next @Conservatives government.

If you’re u40 and lower middle class, the UK system relentlessly punishes you. Tax rates and housing make it impossible to accumulate wealth. Further rewarding rent seeking makes everything worse. Why work hard?

Kemi is popular and powerful. Strong enough to change the Conservatives. That means a radical reshuffle. Appetite for rewriting our economic model. And “change” to cut through all comms. Kemi, be ruthless ✍️ conservativehome.com/2026/05…

Across the country the Conservatives are coming back.

The Conservatives are coming back!

@Conservatives majority in Bexley! 🇬🇧 Reform’s number one target in London… Thank you Bexley, we won’t let you down.

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me. Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true. Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response. I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth. The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts. I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse. So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.

Nigel Farage says that a vote for Reform on May 7 is a vote to kick Starmer out. But today, when there was a vote that has the potential to kick Starmer out, he abstained. All talk, no action.

Rubbish. The only advice that matters is the advice Starmer was given BEFORE appointing Mandelson. Not the hasty justification written a year later…AFTER the appointment had blown up, AFTER I asked Starmer about it at PMQs, and AFTER Mandelson had been sacked. The Cabinet Secretary, Chris Wormald promised in this letter to keep the issue "under review" and consider "any further evidence". But even he was SACKED before he could carry out a proper investigation. We all heard Olly Robbins say No.10 was putting pressure to appoint Mandelson. That’s why the PM falsifying Robbin’s account at PMQs is so bad. This letter is a very weak post-hoc justification to provide cover for Starmer. In fact, it’s irrelevant.

Every MP now faces a matter of conscience. Do they back Keir Starmer’s cover up, or do they vote to seek the truth?

It is preposterous for Starmer to claim he did not know Mandelson failed security vetting. If the Prime Minister doesn’t know what’s happening in his own office, he shouldn’t be in charge of our country. He should go.

The Civil Service Code requires honesty, integrity, and objectivity, and expressly forbids deceiving or knowingly misleading ministers.

Conservative Victory! After months of campaigning, we’ve won our fight to stop Starmer’s Chagos Islands surrender 🇬🇧

The more the public sees of Kemi, the more they like her. Expect Labour and Reform’s attacks on Kemi to be more personal and specific over the coming weeks ⬇️

If you’re under 40 you’ve never really known GDP per capita growth. @Conservatives can’t ignore that - we need a new conservative radicalism backing aspiration, fixing housing, rewarding work. 🎧 Listen to my take on @NextGenTories excellent new report

A sea change is happening in the Conservative Party. A radical new approach. Excellent coverage of a New Radicalism with @jackmrankin and @JAHeale 👇

On this special bank holiday Coffee House Shots: can the Tories win back support through 'conservative radicalism'? Jack Rankin MP speaks to James Heale about how the Party should focus on aspiration & wealth creation, be more honest about immigration & integration – and why many of the previous government's problems were due to a lack of ideological grounding from their candidates. Plus, what does the former PPS to Robert Jenrick make of the threat posed by Reform? @JAHeale | @jackmrankin spectator.com/podcast/conser…

Message to young people in the last few months: Conservatives: Abolish stamp duty, cut student loan repayments, more apprenticeships. Reform: You haven’t paid in enough.
