Kemi showed real class at Starmer's final PMQs today, praising his leadership on Ukraine despite their many clashes. Contrast that with Starmer, who used Boris Johnson's farewell to score cheap political points. This is why Kemi is winning the country's respect.

As Leader of the Opposition, Keir Starmer led his party to a landslide, after a historic defeat. I fully intend to do the same.

“If you want to lead this country, you should set out your plans to do so.
“But one politician intends to spend his summer avoiding scrutiny.
“So does the PM agree that what the nation needs is a televised debate between Nigel Farage and Count Binface?”

Ann Widdicombe's name must be put on the wall in the House of Parliement alongside the other two MPs Joe Cox and David Amess who were also murdered.
Repost this if you agree.

NEW Sir Keir Starmer has been presented with the Légion d'honneur, recognising his work with France on the security of Europe and Ukraine.
French President Emmanuel Macron thanked the Prime Minister for his “personal leadership” and “decency” as he gave the award.
He said: “We found with you a very reliable and friendly partner.” More at @GBNEWS.

@steverichards14 Sensible? You would think that, and that’s why they shouldn’t be in the party.

This will end badly… for Kemi Badenoch. Taking on parts of their own party makes a leader look ‘strong’ for around ten seconds…then the trouble begins…especially when a leader disciplines the sensible wing of her party.

@BBCr4today @bbcnickrobinson He’s one of the worst non Tories and a little twerp. It was vital to expel him and plenty more need to follow, they’re a complete drag on the likelihood of a comeback..

@bphillipsonMP Still very bruised by Kemi Badenoch telling it how it is with you. You said you were owning it - clearly not.

Complain about British Muslims praying in Trafalgar Square — stay a Tory Shadow Minister.
Complain about Badenoch’s disregard for human rights and climate change — lose the Tory whip.
When people show you who they are, believe them.

@Fox_Claire @Madz_Grant She wasnt worthy of being on the programme never mind asked her views about Ann Widdecombe’s legacy.
English
Everyone should be free to speak their mind and while I undertstand people's fury at this offensive tirade on #PoliticsLive, sometimes it's a free-speech public service for the rest of us to judge others' characters by their own words. When this self-defined queer 'environmentalist activist' decides to stick the boot in to murdered Ann Widdcombe because of her views, we all get to see the ugly underbelly of #BeKind progressivism
The eyes have it@LL18again
#politicslive There’s a time and a place. There is an ongoing investigation into her murder and no word of when her funeral will be. Have some respect

Wow. #PoliticsLive discusses Ann Widdecombe’s murder case & chose to feature @DazeAghaji smearing her. The killer still hasn't been prosecuted, yet the BBC gives airtime to attacks on the victim. Utterly shameful. This fat jabba the hut looking cretin needs deporting.

.@TerrorismPolice are leading an investigation into a credible threat to those attending the UK Ijtima festival this weekend.
I thank Suffolk Police, Counter Terrorism Policing, and the organisers for their swift and effective response that undoubtably saved lives. Twelve individuals have now been arrested.
I know this is deeply concerning news for British Muslims.
We must stand against hatred and we must unite around our shared belief in a country that is open, generous and tolerant to all our communities.
English
@JuliaHB1 It's no revelation that new evidence can emerge in investigations. But I do say that a lot of media was very very keen to run the 'no politics involved angle.
English
So they ruled out any possible political motive and now they've ruled it in. Another top quality police investigation.

@NatalieFleetMP 1) you really aren’t very bright
2) you dine out on the ‘poor victim me’ narrative
3) you’re very selective in your sympathy for other victims
4) you unbelievably voted against a child rapeinquiry
5) your utterly undeserving of your minister post
6) Farage Derangement Syndrome

@JonasGahrStore, your boys took one hell of beating 🏴

@DPJHodges Reform and GB News will never accept that it wasn't politically motivated. Farage sowed the seed yesterday by saying he thought it was pre meditated then announcing the performative security for his MPs. The timing couldn't have been better.
English
Police again very clear. No suggestion Anne Widdecombe's death terror related. Or that it is politically motivated. And that speculation on motive is unhelpful to their investigation.

EXC: I asked Robert Jenrick whether Reform UK is effectively a party that is for sale to anyone. I also reminded him that he accepted money from Israel’s second richest man, Idan Ofer, who funds genocide.
If you want to talk Rob, why do you keep rejecting my interview requests?
