If I want to watch traitors I can switch on the telly and follow them in their Scottish castle. I saw enough of Robert Jenrick in Westminster to know I didn’t trust him. Well done @KemiBadenoch for acting swiftly to evict - there’s no good place for traitors in real life.

If you want to help people affected my earthquake in Myanmar, this local charity is based in the Thai/Myanmar border. I am told it does excellent work especially for children. helpwithoutfrontiers.org/about-us

Pink 💅 for #BreastCancerAwareness. Please friends go for your mammogram. Mine has found the cancer early. It is a life saver. If you’re a woman of a certain age, please don’t file the letter in the bin. Please, please go for the mammogram when called. 🩷💕🩷💕🩷💕🩷💕🩷 @BreastCancerNow @macmillancancer @CR_UK

Many congratulations to @paulbristow79 for being selected as the candidate for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough mayor. As former MP for peterborough he knows the patch very well.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський
Today, Putin admitted to taking a second step this year toward escalating and expanding this war. A new ballistic missile was used. Putin struck our city of Dnipro, one of Ukraine’s largest cities. This is a clear and severe escalation in the scale and brutality of this war—a cynical violation of the UN Charter by Russia. Let me emphasize: this is already Russia’s second step toward escalation this year. The first was involving North Korea in the war against Ukraine with a contingent of at least 11,000 soldiers. Putin has taken both of these steps while ignoring everyone in the world who is calling for no further expansion of the war. He disregards calls from China, Brazil, European countries, the United States, and others. Putin alone started this war—an entirely unprovoked war—and he is doing everything to prolong it, now for over a thousand days. The use of a ballistic missile against Ukraine today is yet more proof that Russia has no interest in peace. Putin lies when he claims that Ukraine’s use of long-range weapons is somehow a new step for us. This is not the first time we have used such weapons, and we have every right to do so under international law. Our right to self-defense is the same as that of any other nation. And when Russian missiles hit our cities, when Iranian “Shaheds” attack Ukraine every night, when a North Korean contingent is deployed on our borders, Putin is not only prolonging the war—he is spitting in the face of those in the world who genuinely want peace to be restored. The world must respond. Right now, there is no strong reaction from the world. Putin is very sensitive to this. He is testing you, dear partners. It is clear who the sole culprit of this war is—who started it on February 24th and who continues to pour all resources into its continuation. He must be stopped. A lack of tough reactions to Russia’s actions sends a message that such behavior is acceptable. This is what Putin is doing. Putin must feel the cost of his deranged ambitions. Response is needed. Pressure is needed. Russia must be forced into real peace, which can only be achieved through strength. Otherwise, there will be endless Russian strikes, threats, and destabilization—not just against Ukraine. True peace is worth fighting for. Action is required. Thank you to everyone who is helping. Glory to Ukraine!

From birth trauma to foreign policy, Conservative women lead the way - fighting for policies that make a real difference to people's lives. So, ask her to stand. Encourage her to lead. Because when women stand, they don’t just inspire - they change the world.

In the Commons the Lib Dems voted with us to force Labour to improve passenger rail services. Then in the Lords, they voted against it. All because they thought no-one would notice.

Today I am launching the new Global Birth Trauma Alliance to campaign for change to improve maternity care in the UK and around the world. We need a #MeToo movement for birth trauma. I call on the new Labour Government @Keir_Starmer to implement in full the recommendations of the cross party Birth Trauma Inquiry report and I look forward to hearing formally from the Health Secretary @wesstreeting and my request to meet. thetimes.com/article/8c8ee6… @thetimes

The message from farmers I’ve met is clear: Labour’s Family Farm Tax is going to cripple the industry.   If we lose our family farms, we won’t be getting them back.   I’m clear that we oppose these taxes, and we would reverse them.
