Nine years on from the Manchester Arena terror attack, my thoughts are with those who lost their lives, the survivors, and their loved ones. Last year I was proud to deliver on my promise to Figen Murray to introduce Martyn’s Law, in memory of her son Martyn Hett. Martyn’s Law will help save lives by making sure venues and event spots have clear plans in place and are ready to act if the worst happens.

Labour: tackling violence against women and girls. Reform: would dish out peerages for shouting at women in the street. Grim.

Net migration down 82%. Net migration is now at 171,000, down from a high of 944,000 under the Conservatives. This Government is restoring order and control to our borders.

International creditors are alarmed that of the £132bn Labour borrowed during the fiscal year to March, a jaw-dropping £110bn went on debt interest payments – almost the same as state education spending, twice what we spend on defence. Yes, the Tories left national debt north of 90pc of GDP. But this economically naive government has made a bad situation far worse. Now, with Labour lurching further left after getting hammered in recent local elections, the markets are calling time. It’s clear Keir Starmer will soon be replaced by someone even more leftwing. All leadership rivals in the frame would crank up borrowing and spending even more than Labour already has since taking office in July 2024. Back then, the Office for Budget Responsibility was forecasting state borrowing of £323bn by the end of the fiscal year 2029. Labour’s run-away spending and growth-crushing tax rises means that same five-year borrowing forecast is now £583bn – 80pc higher. But the trade unions, MPs and Labour activists who will choose Starmer’s successor want even more. Since Labour took office, the UK’s 10-year gilt yield has risen by 1.16 percentage points (or 116 basis points), compared to 86bps in France, 79bps in Germany and just 17bps in Italy. 🧵6/7

Lard ass bakery bandit steals HALF a cake maker’s entire stock from her honesty-box shed without leaving a single penny Sabina Seidel, 39, from Spalding, Lincolnshire, opened her dream Treat Street Bake Shed in March 2026 using a simple honesty system with a QR code for card payments and a cash box. On 9 May, between 7:25pm and 8pm, a pony-tailed man in a red T-shirt calmly walked in, filled a plastic bag with 25 home-made cakes and cookies worth around £80, licked his lips, tried the cash box, and strolled out. Sabina, watching on her hidden CCTV, initially thought he was a customer paying and even thanked him as he left. She only realised the theft when she saw the open door and empty shelves. Lincolnshire Police are investigating and have confirmed no arrests have been made..yet
