    One of the main reasons for the largest majority I have achieved after various General Elections I have stood in, in Lincoln, is because @BorisJohnson was our Prime Minister & Leader of @Conservatives & promised to deliver Brexit. Many of my constituents want him back. I do too.

    I am sure those political titans @GaryLineker & @GNev2 will have answers for us all, along with @PippaCrerar @AdamWagner1 @AngelaRayner et al, no?

    3 questions Keir needs to answer: 1) Why did he pretend the dinner was impromptu when it was pre-planned 2) Why did he pretend he went back to work, when the evidence is clear he didn’t 3) How can the dinner with Mary Foy be work related, when he’s already admitted it wasn’t

    MP’s debated covid vaccines for teens this morning and it is clear to me that the majority do not support it. Here is @karlmccartney reminding adults that they must first ‘do no harm’. Not sure why they need reminding mind. Full debate here parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/c4…

    I have deleted the tweet I posted of a photo I took in the Commons lobby last night, at the request of the Sergeant at Arms. I accept I broke Commons etiquette in taking the photo. I did so to expose a wrong. I have apologised. I’m happy to take it down as requested.

    Was pleased to see & hear a v clear & strident performance & delivery from the PM, #PMQs, although @BorisJohnson @10DowningStreet obviously ably assisted by probably the worst Sir Keir Starmer ‘failing to read the room’ act (and there are a lot to choose from) in recent memory.

    Whatever Brexit outcome the new Prime Minister puts forward, we must have another referendum. Remain must be an option and Labour will campaign for remain.

    A now ‘former colleague’, who was gifted various positions, ahead of many better, well-qualified & collegiate colleagues, dumps on all from a great height. Once more another non-Conservative handpicked as part of Cameron's A List. Same people at CCHQ keep making same mistakes…🤔

    Thankyou to every @Conservatives & @HouseofCommons colleague who helped make the case against domestic vaccine passports - along with the masses of the public, old and young, who made their voices heard, who can all share the credit for this ‘victory for common sense’.

    Happy 10th anniversary to the 'Group of 81' who voted along with myself, against our ‘Whip’ (& despite pressure), for an in/out EU Referendum, on this day in 2011. Without that rebellion, we wouldn’t be where we are today. @conservatives @lnconservatives Bless you all.🇬🇧 Brexit.

    I wonder if the MSM are likely to ‘pick this up’👇or will it disappear into the ether along with the £500k @BarryGardiner took from the Chinese Govt? 🤔 If either of these issues concerned @Conservatives then @BBCPolitics & @BBCRadio4 @BBCr4today would be all over it no doubt 🙄

    Doug Ford connects with the nail fairly squarely… and is calmly impressive in his description of the position we are in and the common consensus re direction of travel… imho.

    The Premier of Ontario, Doug Ford has just blown up Justin Trudeau’s house of cards. In fact he’s just blown up the entire argument for mandates, vaccine passports and restrictions.
