Mike Tapp MP

The country I love. 🇬🇧

Yesterday, the Minister for Migration and Citizenship, Mike Tapp MP (@MikeTappTweets), attended an ICIBI away day and met staff and the Independent Chief Inspector. ICIBI staff heard about ministerial challenges and priorities.

Always. It’s on the membership card.

Not understanding a policy is not justification for attacking it. There is no “row back” on settlement. The period is extending from 5 to 10 years. As has always been the case, and explained consistently, we have just closed a consultation that considers transitional arrangements and potential exemptions. Further decisions are currently being made after the 200k responses are analysed. I am in the Home Office to deliver for the country, these changes are needed given the unmanageable pace and scale of change we have seen, we are preventing 1.6 million having access to the already buckling welfare system, over a short period of time. None of this means we do not value contribution of migrants, quite the opposite. The new system will reward contribution and integration. Polling shows that the changes we are making are popular, because they are necessary. We said we’d put country first before the election, that is what we are doing.

From war to counter terrorism, I’ve spent my whole career serving the country. That’s also how I do politics. Seeking solutions to the countries problems we inherited. I’m not polluted by entrenched ideology. Stand firm. 🇬🇧

Encouraging to see colleagues standing up for the excellent Hollie Ridley

The Middle East conflict has increased the need for rapid military innovation. It’s central to our national and economic security. Today we’ve agreed a new defence partnership between Ukraine and the UK - strengthening Ukraine’s ability to defend itself from Russia’s brutal attacks and ensuring the UK and our allies are prepared to meet the threats of the future. Great to see you again, my friend, @ZelenskyyUa.

This guy again! 🙄 Firm but fair.. in delivery mode. Service.

Raising our great flag, a flag of unity and service - was a real privilege that I will never forget. inyourarea.co.uk/news/mike-tapp…

@affleckquine Your pinned tweet talks about how we should have listened to Gaddafi and you seem a little obsessed with Israel. Would you accept that you sign up to antisemitic conspiracy theories? Because that is precisely what you are alluding to here I think.

@MikeTappTweets Mike Tapp was one of Starmer's parachuted in 2024 MPs. He went on the LFI Israel trip before he was an MP, 78% of his donations received came from the Israel lobby. A former Military intelligence officer who worked in Iraq & Afghanistan.

I’m continuously proud to serve under the calm, serious leadership of our Prime Minister. He is absolutely committed to service and duty with a steely eyed focus on turning our great country around, whilst the Westminster bubble seeks drama. We are focussed. 🇬🇧

Britain is at its best when we look out for each other. From our public servants to those creating jobs and paying their taxes service is what holds us together. That’s what makes this country so special.

I’ve been to war three times, taken on criminal gangs, arrested paedophiles, helped stop terrorist attacks. Paid taxes the whole time, volunteered for the Alzheimer’s society, raised money for various charities - now I’m serving my constituents and working hard to deliver an immigration system that is controlled, orderly, firm and fair. You?

@MikeTappTweets What have you contributed. Let’s see real facts, what have you done but increase government spend, taxes and levies.

Service. We are not customers of Britain. We are contributors to it. That is what makes us great! 🇬🇧

@JamesCleverly Everything I do, James, is in service to the country. We are lucky to have a leader who is stable in his convictions, with global threats rising the last thing this country needs is a return to turmoil and uncertainty. I’m proud to be a part of this tough but achievable project.

The Labour whips will note which MPs haven’t posted the approved message of devotion to the Great Leader.

Removals and deportations of illegal migrants and foreign criminals are at the highest levels in a decade.

I know many people across Dover & Deal will be concerned by the meningitis outbreak in nearby Canterbury. My thoughts are with the families who have lost loved ones and those currently being treated. NHS teams are responding quickly. Please follow public health advice and seek medical help via NHS 111 if symptoms appear. Let’s look out for one another. kentandmedway.icb.nhs.uk/news/meningiti…

Dover Castle is stunning. Get yourself to Dover. We’ve got lots to offer: the castle, white cliffs, beautiful beaches, the hidden gem of Deal just up the road and much more! english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/d…

@algorecrave @rhys_2024 Ellen inspired!

I will always make decisions in the national interest. That’s why we did not join the offensive action against Iran.    Reform and the Tories would’ve rushed us into war without a plan to get us out.
