They were starving. 🍞

The cotton was right there. 🧵

They refused to ask for it. ✋

Lancashire, 1862. The mills had fallen silent. Most of the mill workers had no work. 🏭

Families pawned the blankets off their beds and queued for penny soup. 🥣

The cotton they needed was stuck behind a blockade across the Atlantic. Most of it picked by enslaved people. ⛓️

Mill and shipping bosses wanted the Royal Navy to smash the blockade and get it flowing again. ⚓

On New Year's Eve, working men packed a hall in Manchester. 🕯️

What they voted for that night made an American president write back. ✉️

And the ground under that hall had a story of its own. 🤫

Watch the full story. 👇

Over a million people have been unemployed and claiming Universal Credit for over 6 months.

Some have never worked.

If you’ve paid in - it’s right you get help to get back on your feet.

So under us, people who’ve worked will continue to get Universal Credit as normal.

But those who’ve chosen not to work will see their benefits drop by a third after 6 months.

And paid onto a ‘Back to Work’ card that can’t be used for alcohol, cigarettes, gambling or cash.

For those who suggest this is a nanny state measure – not at all.

This is not their money: it’s taxpayers' money.

Follow these guys. And support them. New kids on the block and very much needed 👇

This is a betrayal of the women of Piddington, but emblematic of Labour and Angela Rayner’s disregard for the law and women and girls’ safety.

When I visited Piddington I met a village terrified of what was about to land on their doorstep. The government said it was listening, instead it’s completely ignored this community’s concerns.

The 1000+ male migrants that Labour are about to deposit in Oxfordshire are in Britain illegally. They should be deported as soon as possible, not housed in areas completely unsuitable for the task.

Only the Conservatives have a thorough plan to leave the ECHR and ensure that every illegal migrant is removed from our country as swiftly as possible.

When I tell people Labour are the Welfare Party….

[Andrew Griffith MP @griffitha]

I support @drlukeevans Bill to ban first cousin marriage.

Why is Labour so supportive of this practice?

[Andrew Griffith MP @griffitha]

Net-zero red tape and gold-plated building regulations add up to £50,000 to the cost of a new-build home.

Total MADNESS!

We Conservatives will scrap them.

That could cut first-time buyers’ monthly mortgage repayments by £250.

We need to get Britain building again. 🧱

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

This will be Labour’s legacy unless Andy Burnham stops this nonsense.

If this was your fitness tracker you'd be looking for your GP's number!

When the state grows faster than the private sector on which it depends, it cannot end well.

Burnham's do nothing government has left Britain in limbo.

LIVE: Britain needs Welfare That Works. Here’s our plan 👇 https://t.co/QQsyQQ3aba

On this Armistice Day I want to remember all those servicemen and women who have given their lives in the service of our country.

Their sacrifice must never be forgotten.

[Andrew Griffith MP @griffitha]

The freedoms we enjoy today were hard-won by those we may never have known, but who fought and gave their lives to defend Britain.

Today, we remember those who never came home, and honour all those who serve our country today.

We will remember them.

[Andrew Griffith MP @griffitha]

I am clear, not a penny of British taxpayers’ money should be spent on reparations.

Another self-indulgent distraction from Andy Burnham.

[Andrew Snowden MP 🇬🇧 @A_J_Snowden]

108 years has passed since the guns fell silent on the Western Front, and Armistice Day remains a moment to pause and reflect.

We remember the fallen, honour the living, and defend the freedoms they fought and sacrificed so much to secure.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them.

[Helen Whately MP @Helen_Whately]

Labour is governing for Benefits Street - more welfare, higher taxes, a bigger state.

We can’t afford it, and taxpayers have had enough.

Conservatives will stand up for people who work, do the hard yards - and bear the brunt of the bill.

Britain's national war memorial was only meant to stand for a week. 🕊️

Summer 1919. Britain planned a huge victory parade through London. 🎖️

But the dead couldn't march. They lay abroad, or were never found. 💔

So the Prime Minister asked the architect Edwin Lutyens for a place where the troops could salute them. 🫡

It went up in wood and plaster, right in the middle of Whitehall. 🪵

Fifteen thousand soldiers marched past it. Each one saluted the dead. 🇬🇧

Then the parade ended. But people kept coming. 🌹

In the week it was meant to stand, over a million came. 🤯

Its sides look perfectly straight. They aren't. 📐

No names on it. No cross. It belongs to everyone who lost someone. 🙏

Today, at eleven o'clock, the nation falls silent around it once more. 🕯️

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. 🌺

Be part of us. ☝️🇬🇧
Be Proud Of Us. 🙏🇬🇧

A Labour MP texts:

“I cannot believe, or sadly I can, that the PM has said there should be a rape unit in every police force when he presided over the abolition of the Greater Manchester one when he was Mayor”.

[Katie Lam @Katie_Lam_MP]

Shabir Ahmed, the ringleader of the Rochdale grooming gang, spent 14 years in prison for his horrific crimes.

The maximum sentence for avoiding Labour's holiday tax? 14 years.

It sounds too insane to be true - but it is.

[Chris Philp MP @CPhilpOfficial]

The government tried to hide these figures for a year

We found that, for some nationalities, almost no foreign criminals are deported

Almost all serious foreign criminals from countries like Jamaica and Nigeria have been allowed to stay in the UK based on spurious human rights claims - and many have gone on to commit more offences here, including rape and murder
