At the first Full Council meeting of this municipal year in May, Steve Simkins voted to accept a pay rise for himself while refusing one for his colleagues. The justification? That being Council Leader is a demanding full-time job. Yet only weeks later, he accepted another highly demanding role as Deputy Mayor of the West Midlands Combined Authority, reportedly worth almost £30,000 a year. So which is it? If leading Wolverhampton is a full-time job, how can residents have confidence it will now receive his full attention? Wolverhampton has already suffered from years of missed opportunities, delays and decline. Instead of focusing on turning our city around, he's taking on another senior, taxpayer-funded position. Residents deserve leaders whose priority is Wolverhampton - not collecting titles and pay packets. The gravy train won't last forever. Ultimately, it's the people of Wolverhampton who will decide whether this record deserves another term. @CeliaHibbert @wswlabour @LabourParty

We are completely heartbroken that our dream ends here, but so proud of this group, our staff and you – our amazing fans. Your support in North America and back home has been nothing short of incredible. Thank you.

What. A. Moment.✨

We from @reformparty_uk Wolverhampton are wishing the @England Squad the very best in their match against Argentina! It's coming Home! 🦁🩵🇬🇧

@patmcfaddenmp Bye, Bye Tax Man Pat! 😁🤣🫵

We should not leave people to be written off. Our Pathways to Work advisors have spoken to 100,000 people who previously had no contact with employment support. Their stories are inspiring. Let's do more to help people live the fullest life possible.

If you think #thirdworld is the model #Britain should follow, I know of plenty of empty properties abroad you can move into. I'm sure people would even crowd-fund the one-way ticket. What we will not do is stand by while Britain 🇬🇧 is dragged in this direction. At the next election, voters will remove every politician who champions policies that undermine our country's prosperity, #security, and traditional #identity. No smear campaign, hatchet job, intimidation, bullying, or slander will stop that. The ballot box has the final say, and @reformparty_uk is coming to end this lunacy! #Reform #Britain facebook.com/share/p/197j76…

Great Branch meeting today at the Triangle Bar+Grill with our Leader of the Opposition, @CeliaHibbert, Our deputy Leader of the Opposition Cllr Anita Stanley and Cllr Corey Kendrick! Others joined us as well. Thank you again Cllr Hibbert for an amazing evening! Great afterwards watching the footy as well!😅 #VoteReformUK! 🩵🇬🇧🇬🇧

@HeManAtArms @RobertJenrick Well that's nice. You've hurt my feelings now. I'm going to lose sleep🤣🤣👋

@FraserW088 @RobertJenrick You mug.

I voted against Labour’s Immigration Bill tonight. It’s yet another sham. Where’s leaving the ECHR? Where’s blocking every made up legal claim? Where’s detaining and deporting every illegal migrant so they aren’t in bedsits on your street? Where’s the power to send them back home, to places like Afghanistan if needs be? Nowhere to be seen. Where’s blocking the Boriswave from getting Indefinite Leave to Remain and bankrupting Britain with their benefits and social housing? That’s being dropped by the sound of things. It’s just another performative farce, like the Sunak Rwanda Bill I resigned over. Labour are the party of open borders. Have been under Starmer, will be under Burnham. The Tories haven’t changed. They’re still stuffed to the rafters with people who should be in the Lib Dems. Trust me, I know them. They won’t do any of these things. They didn’t even vote against the Bill tonight. Only Reform will secure our borders and put the British people first.

@BenchUkg @RobertJenrick I'm not going to even respond properly to such rubbish😂🤣👋

@FraserW088 @RobertJenrick No they won’t. They’ll get rid of your worker and human rights. is that Really What you want to have no rights at all?.

@glum_pensioner @RobertJenrick Since Starmer become PM Small boat crossings have gone up significantly. And if you think Burnham can just walk into Westminster without a mandate, and with no plan to fix it think again. The only way we'll get Change is by Voting @reformparty_uk! 🇬🇧

@FraserW088 @RobertJenrick Labour have halved the numbers. I genuinely think Jenrick was a plant to get the numbers as high as possible, as it was Reform's strategy for power all along.

@RobertJenrick Absolutely disgusting. This man had NO mandate either! He should do the right thing and call a GE! #VoteReformUK! 🩵🇬🇧

🚨Andy Burnham plans to raise taxes on your family by £3,450. He’s advocated £38 Billion of new taxes. No one voted for this. He needs to rule them out, today. If he won’t, Reform will fight him. Join our campaign now👇 burnhamtaxrises.com

@KemiBadenoch The Tories will promise anything until it actually comes to it 🤣 we all learnt that the hard way😅

People who come to Britain on temporary work visas should not automatically be able to stay forever. This Labour government was right to make that harder. Now their MPs want them to u-turn. Conservatives will back Labour’s original plan to help get it through Parliament.

This is Wolverhampton Labour's response to issues facing their residents. 'Ask Cllr Stanley'.. the reason I asked Cllr Coogan is because the issues are in HER ward, NOT Cllr Stanley's ward. Did Cllr Jacqui Coogan say this because: . She is incompetent and can't do her job properly? Or . Is it because she doesn't care about the people of Wolverhampton? I specifically contacted the local councillor of a specific ward to report an issue in their local area. Yet they shift the blame onto someone else, who has no involvement whatsoever in it🤣 #Labour does NOT care about you. Cllr Simkins does NOT care about you. The only party that will stick up for residents, and not take short cuts and blame other people is Reform UK! The only Councillor fit to run #Wolverhampton is Councillor Celia Hibbert! 🩵🇬🇧 Cllr Coogan should be ashamed of herself, alongside the rest of the incompetent #Labour and #Conservative councillors. #VoteReformUK! #Farage4PM! 🩵🇬🇧

Today in the Commons, I paid tribute to our dear friend Ann Widdecombe. A true legend, admired by millions. A woman of unwavering conviction. A passionate champion of public service and a lover of life. She enjoyed a remarkable career in both politics and broadcasting. Her work ethic was second to none. An exceptional orator whose words always carried weight. She will be deeply missed, and her legacy will endure.

@TiceRichard Lib Dems, Tories and Labour are all the UniParty! Two sides of the same backside! #VoteReform! 🩵🇬🇧

Tory centrists defy Badenoch’s red lines on net zero and ECHR Tories cannot be trusted - too many just soggy Lib Dem’s who prefer Ed Davey’s wetsuit Never forgive Never forget What they did to us and to our country telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

@TiceRichard She was an amazing person! Always had time for everyone. Hopefully the person that committed such an evil act faces the full force of the law. 🕊️🩵🇬🇧

Emotional memorial paying tribute today to Ann just by her home in Devon

Richard Tice, Lee Anderson, Zia Yusuf and Danny Kruger pay their respects at a memorial for Ann Widdecombe.

What a great day today at our new Bilston market. We had the weather, the place and the people. An £8m investment that renews the economic heart of the town. Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
