The vocal minority whom engage with the current planning system are not reflective of the diverse views of our communities.

We should build a more representative planning structure which broadens engagement, unlocking desperately needed homes and growth.

Delighted to join the @RepPlanningGrp Representative Planning Group Advisory Board - a great cross-party initative.

Looking forward to working on the ways we can also give a voice to the silent majority who support the delivery of new homes in their community #planning #homes

Delighted to host the @WeAreBrightBlue Spring Reception last week.

I said: "The liberal centre-right - as opposed to the authoritarian right and statist left - will have our time again soon, to fix the big problems and build a more prosperous, green and abundant country."

📣 OUT NOW Bright Blue's latest report: a plan to reduce legal and illegal migration, and ensure migrants contribute more both economically and socially.

Edited by @wjprescott & Joe Harrison.

**"Mainstream parties need honest and deliverable policy prospectus to reduce immigration"**

🔵 10 essays
🔵 Over 40 policy recommendations

This essay collection is an attempt to offer a popular and effective set of policies to improve our immigration system, rooted in centre-right principles: control, contribution and cohesion. That is, national governments should have the power to determine the number and type of migrants who are admitted. And migrants should only be admitted and allowed to stay if they successfully contribute to and integrate into our country.

@boys_nicholas 🗣️Agreement between @KateNHF, Geeta Nanda OBE and @PaulFiddaman1 on the need for a concrete long-term plan for housing. Especially when research shows that a lack of affordable housing inhibits economic growth.
