Dominic Johnson CBE

A noble defence of the benefits of cigar smoking by Lord Johnson of Lainston.

We are banning cigars in the UK - personally I think this is bizarre when so many things need our urgent attention. Also friends be aware - as soon as adults are not able to make decisions for themselves on matters such as this. What’s next? #cigars #freedom

Well, goodbye there! It’s been a privilege to serve as the @Conservatives Co Chairman alongside @HuddlestonNigel. Together with Mike & the Treasurers we fundraised more than anyone else combined. Wishing Kevin the best, and thank you to CCHQ staff & our Party members - onwards!

Keynote speech by @LordJohnson_ at the @ArabLondonBoard Awards Ceremony last night at the House of Lords — a powerful message on leadership, diplomacy, and opportunity.

It has been a privilege to serve as Co-Chairman of the Conservative Party alongside the brilliant Lord Johnson. Thank you CCHQ team and the thousands of loyal activists I met fighting the Conservative cause right across the country (showcased in my CCHQ wall of campaign photos in the pic, below). I've made many new friends and leave the Chairman's role with some amazing memories. I know that Kevin Hollinrake will do a fantastic job as the new Chairman. And I am also delighted to take over the shadow DCMS brief so ably championed by Stuart Andrew. I am passionate about all DCMS sectors and am honoured to have been asked by Kemi to take on this new challenge.

Some sadness today in CCHQ at the departure of Lord Johnson. He acted as the sole fundraiser for Kemi Badenoch’s successful leadership campaign. Subsequently his fundraising team has been one of the few highlights of her leadership in terms of raising donations

Young and Conservative! The energy and enthusiasm to join the Party from such a young age is still rife, and even better, they want to work in the heart of it - at CCHQ! But why? They have kindly filmed a video to explain…. 🎥 #yc#youngconservatives#interns#cchq

It has been fabulous to have some of the CCHQ interns shadowing me and the executive office team. Here is a little video they produced telling you all about it! 🎬

The @CityHallTories are the nucleus of London conservatives. It was fantastic to welcome Susan, Emma, Shaun, Tom & Neil to CCHQ to have a productive meeting about our strategy for the London local elections in May “26. #london#londonconservatives#londonassembly#cityhall

This Thursday is a by election in Bromley Common & Holwood. The candidate is the fabulous and local Ian Payne - I wish him every success on his campaign! Vote Conservative for lower taxes AND better services! #bromleycommon

Brilliant to be out campaigning for the local candidate Ian Payne for the Bromley Common & Holwood by election happening next Thursday. Ian’s a local champion, and a great public servant. If you want lower taxes, and better services - vote Conservative!

What a bunch of fantastic people! The interns here at CCHQ have been doing a brilliant job across our departments for the past couple of weeks. It was great to give them a tour of the Lords show them the business of Parliament!

When young people have a reason to campaign. They do it.

WENDYS Working Earning Nothing Decent Yet and HENRYs - High Earners Not Rich Yet! Have you heard of them - are you one of them? Conservatives are going to help - we have to. That’s the Conservative dream. #youngconservatives #nextgenconservatives @NextGenTories

You put in the hours. You took the risks. You created value. You did everything right yet you get punished for succeeding. #dontpunishsuccess

Without our rule of law and Parliament, we are actually nothing as an investable destination. I hate to be political but we all look the other way whilst the Government destroy our safety mechanisms. We will be sorry that Parliament is losing some of its best - in years to come.

Fabulous speech from Macron to both Houses of Parliament. The extent Cordial lives! #presidentmacron #youngconservatives #ententcordiale

Huge Honour to address the wonderful Montgomeryshire Conservatives. If you live in Wales you have a shorter life expectancy than if you live in England - is that terrible? A direct result of Labours bad government. It’s time for a change and we can make that change next year!

Fabulous trip to Montgomeryshire! But what a mess Labour’s Wales is in. Farmers urgently need our support. Did you know we are going to reverse the Farming Inheritance tax? We sure will! #welshfarming #conservative #Montgomeryshire #nfuwales #familyfarmtax

Kemi Badenoch wipes the floor with Labour MPs as she tears apart Keir Starmer's botched welfare bill 🔥
