@jackmrankin Feels a bit snide? Surely you want to encourage more people to come back to the Conservative Party!

@albieamankona She’s only apologising for the offence caused though Albie. She then spends the rest of her tweet justifying her racist comments.

Thank you for this apology Sarah, where there is contrition, there should be forgiveness.
Sarah Pochin MP@SarahForRuncorn

My comments on a Talk TV phone-in earlier today were phrased poorly and I unreservedly apologise for any offence caused, which was not my intention. The point I was making is that many British TV adverts have gone DEI mad and are now unrepresentative of British society as a whole. This is not an attack on any group but an observation about balance and fairness in how our country is portrayed on screen. A study commissioned by Channel 4 as part of its Mirror on the Industry project, found that Black people were featured in more than half of adverts in 2022, up sharply from 37 per cent in 2020 following the Black Lives Matter movement. By contrast, Black people make up around 4 per cent of the population in England and Wales, according to the 2021 Census. Representation in advertising should reflect the diversity of modern Britain, but it should also be proportionate and inclusive of everyone. My comments were made in that context, and I stand by the principle that equality should mean fairness for all.

'You can't even bring yourself to say that you like Zack Polanski?' @IainDale has to coax @AdrianRamsay into admitting he likes his Green Party colleague and leadership opponent.

The UK Government has secured a trade deal with the US which benefits businesses on both sides of the Atlantic by removing unnecessary barriers. UK companies and their American customers can now have certainty in the free flow of goods for decades to come! 🤝 The US is the UK’s greatest ally, and we have worked closely with President Trump and his administration to reduce tariffs and support jobs for Brits and Americans. More details: gov.uk/government/new…

950k+ ridership on @wmata yesterday! Getting close to hitting a million trip day. Great to see so many people riding America’s Metro system. What date do you think Metro hits 1m/day? Those with the correct day will get entered into a drawing for someone to win a Metro merch bag.

We are VERY lucky to have Dame Karen here in Washington DC, extending her term would be a fantastic idea - she is hugely popular with Democrats and Republicans! Sir Keir Starmer ‘impressed’ by US ambassador and extends her term thetimes.com/article/256d40…

Delighted to have secured the confidence of MPs across The House & to have been elected as The Chairman of Ways & Means, Deputy Speaker of @HouseofCommons. I’m honoured to have made a bit of 🇬🇧 history as the first ethnic minority MP to serve in The Chair & I hope it inspires the next generation of women. Looking forward to working with colleagues & @CommonsSpeaker on Parliamentary integrity, security & impartiality🤝🏽
