@blaiklockBP House prices are determined by supply & demand. House building ramped up post WW2. Houses became more affordable. Building has slowed down in this century and the rate of population growth has increased. Houses are now less affordable. The only solution is to build more houses.

@GoodwinMJ No one can be sure about the result of the next GE. All the main polls show similar trends. Reform has stalled. Labour & Tory are roughly level well behind Reform. Labour is still easing down. Tories are easing up. Greens are gaining significant momentum. But it could all change

@JonathanBrash Decent public services can only be achieved through the creation of a vibrant & profitable private sector to fund them. At the time of the GE @UKLabour appeared to understand that. Sadly it’s now clear you didn’t. The likelihood of achieving those goals is now fast diminishing.

The worst take. A globalist obsession with GDP ignores human beings. You destroyed the foundations of our society, a destruction exposed by the pandemic. There isn’t a part of the state (NHS, education, councils, social care and more) that isn’t in crisis and it’s down to you!

@CalvinBailey @Nigel_Farage @reformparty_uk I’m not a Reform enthusiast but they’re riding high in the polls while @UKLabour are tanking due to a level of incompetence that is without parallel in my lifetime. I suggest you would gain more by putting your own house in order rather than criticising others.

On Tuesday, I wrote to @Nigel_Farage about the racist and misogynistic remarks made by @reformparty_uk's mayoral candidate, Chris Parry. I asked if he backed the comments - or would sack him. Still no word from Nigel…

@Dan4Barnet @Conservatives Never assume anything and never forget history. Churchill set an interesting example about why. He defected from the Conservatives to the Liberals and then defected back again. It’s four years until the next election. A lot can and, almost certainly will, happen

Only made this speech yesterday and today we’ve had another one! As Ben Bradley joins an ever growing list of Conservative to Reform defections…the @Conservatives have nothing to offer the country, and their own rank know it.

@NicholasLissack @Keir_Starmer Out of touch and out of their depths. They came into government with no vision, no strategy and no plan for government. In opposition their entire strategy revolved around undermining individual Tory politicians, who invariably proved easy targets

Keir Starmer has branded anyone who dares to question his so-called “national renewal” as “racist” and “divisive.” He demonises ordinary Brits who are simply fed up with being ignored in favour of illegal migrants. It’s disgraceful. Labour is profoundly out of touch.

@montie Your points are correct except the fact that previous Tory governments didn’t follow through with their stated policies doesn’t mean that a future Tory government would do the same. That’s more about your agenda rather than anything else.

@carryonkeith I’m old enough to remember Margaret Thatcher being similarly dismissed. I’m not saying you’re wrong; just that the unexpected sometimes happens. Never assume anything!

Badenoch setting out what she'll do if she wins the next General Election is a bit like me looking up restaurants on Trip Advisor just in case Natalie Portman agrees to a date.

@MikeTappTweets I can’t get my head around the utter stupidity of this government. There are some huge benefits to be had from digital ID and you sell it on the basis of shutting down illegal employment, which is the one thing it won’t do. You couldn’t make it up.

Digital ID will help us shut down illegal employment, taking away a pull factor. It will also make everyone’s life easier. It’s time to modernise.

@mgshanks I’m not quite sure how Tories & Reform can drag us into a race to the bottom. Neither are in power and won’t be for another 4 years at least. You can argue that the Tories left a mess but, if there’s still a mess in 2029, as I suspect there will be, that will be Labour’s mess.

For the past few hours Labour MPs have been voting to protect your rights at work and stop the Tories and Reform dragging us into a race to the bottom. If you do a fair days work you deserve fair treatment. It's not radical, it's just the right thing to do.

@TrisOsborneMP @Conservatives Inflation at 11.5% & the subsequent fall to 2% were largely due to the impact of the Ukraine war. Many other countries were similarly affected. The more recent increase is the unintended consequence of government policy. I suspect most people know this, so why treat us as idiots?

@TrisOsborneMP @UKLabour @Conservatives In the interest of balance, the decline began during Sunak’s premiership and has continued under Starmer’s; so both can take some credit. The immigration surge was under Johnson. Interesting that you believe the immigrants, at the time, were right wing.

Net migration has dramatically declined under @UKLabour After the post-Brexit right wing surge we are witnessing the return to a managed system. A long way to go but the @Conservatives open door experiment has been consigned to history.

@paulmasonnews @Keir_Starmer Everything has a cost. I suspect it will be higher unemployment and more pressure on businesses, particularly SMEs, to consolidate rather than grow. I could be wrong, I hope I am. But I’m old enough to have seen it all before. We keep making the same mistakes over & over again.

@LukePollard In my view you voted for higher unemployment and economic decline. You’ll no doubt disagree. You’re an ideologist, I’m a pragmatist. Time will tell which of us is right.

Last night I voted for the biggest upgrade to workers' rights in a generation - Labour's Employment Rights Bill. Reform and the Tories voted 12 times yesterday to try and block this Bill. They don't care about working people.

@RhonddaBryant It may be nonsense but there’s a widely held view that it’s not. In my view we’ve got into a mess over where, when & how freedom of expression becomes incitement. People have widely differing interpretations and creating a clear legal line that is universally understood is hard

@RhonddaBryant So @darrengrimes makes nonsense comment and the great and the good launch attack on him, giving him far greater publicity than he would otherwise have had. So perhaps he’s not as daft as you’re suggesting.
