Care workers on a Health and Care Worker visa have historically been eligible for indefinite leave to remain (ILR) after five years, Labour proposals may increase this waiting period to 10 or 15 years. This is an outrageous way to treat people. #ncasc25 @1adass @LGAcomms

Great news. We are delivering three months of free Park and Ride bus travel bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cder… and the bus companies are improving services. bsky.app/profile/oxfordclari… These changes are exactly why we are doing the Congestion Charge. To make public transport better.

Free Oxford park and ride travel to coincide with congestion charge

Buses from Oxford's park and ride sites will be free, as part of plans to reinvest funds raised by the charge.

Labour trying to out-Reform Reform? A Foreign Sec cosy with JD Vance and a Home Sec pushing 10-year leave to remain retrospectively. Will this help the NHS, or just divide families and exploit workers? Are these really your values? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0m4…

It must be so humiliating being an American these days. The leader of the free world is nothing more than a colossal narcissist.

The usual tribal objection from @_LiamWalker_ despite supporting applications in his own division he says the scheme is a mess. Which ones would you take out Liam? oxfordmail.co.uk/news/253765…

Rank hypocrisy and blatant populism from Labour here. "Do something about traffic," they scream, "Just not that!" To anything suggested. Even ignoring the Citizen's Assembly results they demanded a great cost. oxfordmail.co.uk/news/253154…

The Labour narrative that Cllrs who live out of Oxford are imposing traffic measures on ‘their’ city in an attempt to delegitimise the decision is even more farcical when you understand that the Labour leader, Cllr Brighouse, lives in my Wheatley Division! oxfordmail.co.uk/news/252426…

Where do those making crunch decision on city congestion charge actually live?

Today Oxfordshire County Council’s cabinet will make a major decision regarding controversial plans to unleash a congestion charge in Oxford.

Is anyone else getting suspicious that the The Mail on Clarkson is actually owned by him to use as a marketing tool. It basically runs stories on his TV show and Traffic Filters oxfordmail.co.uk/news/252368…

Oxford City Council is proposing a Greater Oxford Unitary encompassing my entire County Division. greateroxford.org The Labour leadership aim to use the protected Green Belt land to site over 40,000 new homes, by 2040. This is a developer's charter masquerading as reform.

Really hope we can deliver a sensible outcome here.

Henley & Thame MP Freddie van Mierlo has joined Horspath's fight to save the local post office. The 'outreach' post office which had operated in the Community Hub for three hours a week, closed in March, having provided a valuable service for those unable to travel further.

It's been a real privilege to serve the Wheatley Division but there is a lot more to do. Please vote for me on Thursday the 1st of May so I can continue to work hard for our villages.

It's election time and the Conservatives are trying to shift the blame for their own failings. Over successive years central government has given local authorities a fraction of what it costs to maintain the roads and now they want to blame @LibDems @EdwardJDavey ...

It was great to meet Jane and Betty and hear that they’d had a positive experience with all the wonderful staff in the NHS and social care that helped her out of hospital and back into her own home.
