@AngelaTopping @phughes76340646 "He claimed the entire staffing costs for Reform UK." The same costs that were covered by membership fees and donor "gifts"

Rachel Reeves cutting VAT on family summer activities is exactly the kind of practical politics people want to see. Helping families afford days out, freezing fuel duty and easing pressure during the holidays instead of endless culture wars? More of this please.

@King0243_PJC But it's still not possible for disabled people to get on and off without booking assistance, which often doesn't show up.

🚨 Morrisons is closing 100 stores. They've said it is because of “significant cost increases resulting from government policy choices”. This will be deeply worrying for everyone who works at Morrisons. Rachel Reeves has battered our economy. This is the reality of her chaos.

@SMugglestone_FD @Matt_VickersMP So another British company sold off to USA? Generally followed by a decrease in quality and service. Who ever sold Bournville and Boots to USA has ruined those two businesses.

@Matt_VickersMP In 2021, US private equity firm CD&R acquired Morrisons in a staggering £10bn debt-fueled leveraged buyout. The deal loaded the company with massive leverage—approximately £6.6bn in debt—making it highly vulnerable to rising interest rates & inflation: bbc.co.uk/news/business-…

@peterkyle @welshroots I really hope you can save the wonderful Burleigh Pottery, as well as its parent company Denby. Also love Emma Bridgewater. We've lost far too much such skills already. Beloved British brand Wedgwood is mostly made in China now.

This week, I announced a major package of support for our ceramics sector. This funding will protect thousands of jobs and put businesses on a secure footing for the long term.

@Carrieh77665603 Farage only wants money and fame to get more money. He never wanted to stop the boats, he encouraged and amplified it as scapegoating. He never wanted to be PM because that's hard work and accountability, two things he can't handle.

He's working class. He's a grafter. A family man. Gets up in a morning to go to work. That's why the left despise him. Vote @reformparty_uk
Cllr Rob Kenyon@RobKenyonReform

For me, Makerfield isn’t a stepping stone. It’s my home. The people here are my neighbours, friends & family. I took @Nigel_Farage out in my van to show him the places that matter to me. We chatted rugby league and why Makerfield finally needs a proper local MP.

@Heidi_Labour @nowayjomo @oliver_wright Please please make these trains accessible for disabled people. I use a walker and currently unable to use trains at all. It's just not fair. Automatic ramps would help everyone.

@Typhoon_97 @bottomley50 But still not accessible for anyone with mobility problems. Mind that gap. Fit automatic ramps on every train.

@donmcgowan The more scrutiny Farage gets the better, because he hates it and will disappear very fast if it looks like he's going to be held to account or have to pay bills. His likely successor will be Jenrick.

Remember when Reform UK were holding three press conferences a week? Every week. Yeah, that’s not happening since the £5M and the £1.4M news dropped. Any ideas why?

@toady @transportgovuk Exactly. I'd love to be able to use trains without fuss or worry. I have a bad leg and use a walker. I can't use trains until getting on and off is sorted.

@transportgovuk I see that massive gap between train and platform which means the train remains inaccessible unless I rely on the assistance of others. It’s 2026. We should be doing better than this.

Introducing the very first Great British Railways train 🚆 You can now spot the new GBR train in real life as the new branding starts rolling out gradually across the rail network. Another step towards a simpler, better railway under GBR which puts passengers and customers first.

@transportgovuk There's still a dangerous gap between train and platform making these impossible for disabled people. Need automatic ramps to come out, like they have in Ukraine.

Another big rail moment today, as South Western gets its first GBR train. Since coming into public ownership, a new fleet of trains has been rolling out, giving passengers more spacious, comfortable & air conditioned journeys. We're building a railway you can be proud of. 🇬🇧🚆

My husband made me take new headshots for my upcoming book because I've been using the same one for like seven years. I hate pictures of myself. Please just tell me which one of these to use for the back of the book.
