Rt Hon Andrew Murrison MD VR

Such a good visit to Beth and Kai’s Beanstalk Brews play cafe in Westbury today. Great to talk with loyal customers on what makes it a very special place. Fantastic coffee!

Heating oil price hikes are particularly affecting rural areas where people have no gas. I welcome the government's help, but suspect it will amount to very little for my constituents. Remember: Government is benefitting from the oil price rise because of the tax take!

Getting the PM's commitment yesterday at PMQs to a meeting to discuss Wiltshire Fire Station closures. Following up in the debate later on!

Optics appalling. I was in meetings in same building and thought this show was unedifying and highly inappropriate at this difficult time, whatever benefits dancing may bring. x.com/telegraph/stat…

Re Westbury bypass, just got this reply from DfT; The Department plans to publish the third Road Investment Strategy in March 2026, and this will include the latest position and proposed next steps in response to findings of National Highways M4 Dorset Coast Strategic Study 🤞

Exactly what I feared. Tackled minister Darren Jones in ⁦@HouseofCommons⁩ yesterday on ‘managed delay’. Straight out of Whitehall playbook. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

Objected to Westbury MBT plant/planned incinerator @wiltscouncil this am, urged action on paused Bitham Park SEND school after questioning @bphillipsonMP in @HouseofCommons yesterday and pleaded that Trowbridge MSCP not be reduced to an expensive pile of rubble.

Completely agree with this. telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/02/2…

This is very serious. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

Westbury Incinerator? No thanks!

Public will take a stern view of this wheeze to waste their money on things that are nice but not needed. Just make the place safe and jog on.

Government must cut the unfair RPI plus Plan 2 student loan tax on our graduates. We should welcome foreign nationals wanting to study here - at their expense. Ending handouts to foreign students means we could cut the graduate tax. telegraph.co.uk/money/consumer…

Conservatives just forced Starmer to stop marking his own homework and publish the Mandelson files. Starmer appointed Mandelson knowing he had links with the paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The Prime Minister then tried to cover it up. Someone needs to lose their job for this.

Sir Kier will say he was just being a lawyer but this shocking revelation points to legal activism - which is different - against brave young people operating in the most challenging circumstances. Turns out Kier is Jeremy Corbyn in a horsehair wig. telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

Pleasure to attend parliamentary launch of this useful report on attracting young people into our great British farming industry sponsored by flagship Westbury based, farmer-owned firm Arla. 🇬🇧

The now PM chose to do this work for free, in his spare time. Now he’s ripping up the last government’s protections for veterans. What’s Sir Kier got against our troops? telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/01/2…

Not sure if the typically myopic US media has quite clocked what an angry shitstorm President Trump has stirred up abroad with his callous, ungrateful, inaccurate gibe about America’s NATO allies staying away from the Afghan frontline. He’s managed to unite pretty much everybody against him, even his hitherto supporters on the populist right. Even Keir Starmer!

I served in Iraq. I proudly represent a garrison town - Warminster. When 🇺🇸 called, 🇬🇧 answered. We paid a heavy blood price - including in Wiltshire which bore witness to the homecoming flag draped coffins and the awful, choked dignity of loved ones. Shame on you Donald Trump.
