@A_J_Snowden I thought what you said was spot on and well made, I think the speaker has to do something and pmq’s is a joke at the moment, he won’t or cannot answer a single question

Thanks for all the messages and comments following yesterdays #PMQs
People clearly see through the pre-scripted nonsense from Starmer, and it appears you were as annoyed by it as I was.
The official 📸 from yesterday captures my frustration at his disrespect to the House well ⬇️

@ukJ0N You are not relevant, you will and want to break the system to get into power !

Nigel Farage kicked off this morning's Reform press conference slamming our pathetic Prime Minister for fence-sitting and wrecking our vital US and Israeli relationships.
He then exposed the outright fraud in Gorton/Denton: massive postal voting abuse, family voting coercion at polling stations, and Commonwealth citizens swinging results.
Not sour grapes - just demanding basic fairness in our elections.

@10DowningStreet Gaslighting is, under Labour they have gone up by over £300, so a £120 reduction does not bring it down to the level when you came into power

Today the energy price cap has dropped by £117.
We said we’d bring energy bills down - we meant it.

@susannareid100 @GMB Classy and professional response, from somebody who is confident and understands what’s she’s saying!

The Conservative leader’s response to Martin Lewis’s apology for gatecrashing her @gmb interview:
Kemi Badenoch@KemiBadenoch
Hi @MartinSLewis, thank you. I really appreciate that, and honestly, don’t worry. I do love a feisty debate! It helps people understand what the real issues are. You and I agree on the principle: student loans have become a scam. It took me eight years to pay mine off. I made my last payment in 2011, and I remember how happy I was, and my debt was only £14,000. I can’t imagine what it’s like to be a young person with £40,000 debt today. Whatever the Coalition government brought in back in 2012, it’s clearly not working for the world of 2026. So I’d genuinely love to come on your show and debate my plan vs yours. I’m putting student loans on the political agenda because we’ve got to do more for young people. It’s just one part of our New Deal For Young People. As the opposition, Conservatives may not be able to change the law right now, certainly not without cross-party support, but we can set the agenda especially while the government seems distracted by all sorts of other things. In the meantime, I’ll keep doing my job: setting out practical solutions and showing how we can make life in this country better, especially for young people. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

@darrenpjones Back to where it was when Labour came to power!
English
National borrowing is falling faster than expected.
Inflation is down.
Interest rates are falling.
Real wages are improving.
And the U.K. is the fastest growing of the wealthiest countries in Europe.
Step by step, we’re getting our economy back on track.
Institute for Fiscal Studies@TheIFS
Today’s public finance figures show borrowing is falling, and falling even faster than forecast back in November. This is important: the Chancellor’s plan for meeting her fiscal rules is predicated on borrowing falling significantly this year and next.
English
The Labour government will boast about this being due to their economic wizardly. The reality is different:
The £30.4bn surplus is due to the self-assessment end of January tax payment deadline and companies & individuals selling assets before the capital gains tax increases.

@SkyNews Before you came into power the uk was the fastest growing economy in the EU, let’s not forget that!

@SaulStaniforth Let’s not forget the prime minster is a very senior qc/kc, so should be extremely well versed in seeing through lies !! So I don’t accept that he was misled !!

"Whats the point of a vetting procedure if it falls down when somebody lies?"
A succession of ministers over the last few days want us to believe that vetting consists of asking someone if they're hiding anything & when they say no its jobs done. They're treating us like idiots

@DavidLammy You’ve been fact checked in employment has gone up not down as you suggests, check your own data !
English
When the Tories left office, 1 in 8 young people were not earning or learning. That’s their shameful legacy.
Higher wages. Record investment in apprenticeships. 500,000 more people in work than in the previous year.
That’s the difference with Labour.

@sianwilliams100 @carolkirkwood Thankyou Sian, thankyou for remembering bill a lovely bloke and reminding us all of the close relation ship Carol and Bill had, one of the most enjoyable parts of our morning was their discussions x

.@carolkirkwood - you’re a true legend and a great laugh. You are sunshine, all the time. It was a joy sharing the sofa with you for all those years and I know Billy T would want to echo all the lovely things said.
You’ll be missed - but you’ve earned those lie-ins!! X ❤️

Stop the boats. End mass migration. Cut energy bills. Put police back on the streets. Fix the NHS. Lower taxes. Unite the country.
Vote Reform.

@wesstreeting In 18 months I cannot understand how you can suddenly cure or see an additional 300,000 patients, without any additional recourses, as it takes a minimum of 6 years for a dr to qualify!!
English
NEW: For too long, patients were promised change in the NHS but saw little of it.
Today, waiting lists are down by more than 312,000 since Labour came into government - with an 86,000 drop in November alone.
That's the second biggest drop in 15 years. 🧵
