@Coventrian7 @live_coventry @JasKaurJourno @BBCCWR @covobservernews @Daily_Express @birmingham_live @ITVCentral @CllrPeteMale @LepoidevinJulia The detail is provided here in our manifesto. We also put forward funding proposals but were voted down by the other parties: https://t.co/Lj7xq0b4KW

@flupton @airchecks Only just catching up on this. You've been a great host for the morning show and I'll miss speaking to you early doors. Best of luck with the new project - and cycling!

[Gary Ridley @GaryCRidley]

@flupton Coventry City won the FA Cup on 16th May - so there might have been a few Sky Blues fans listening with sore heads!

@Muncomagic @live_coventry @BBCCWR Hi can you DM me the address of these locations please. We have raised pot holes there but I want to be sure we're talking about the same place, thanks.

[Gary Ridley @GaryCRidley]

@DarrenRJones @live_coventry Ah, that would make sense! Hope you're keeping well.

I once landed at Narsarsuaq and wondered why a tiny place had a runway fit for a superpower.

The answer? During WWII it was a major US base where 10,000 aircraft stopped en route to Europe.

America has always been able to use Greenland for security. It doesn’t need to own it 🧵

[Gary Ridley @GaryCRidley]

@MichaelMoganMBE No and yes/ Sadly we won't get any answers either until there is a full and transparent investigation led by totally external people.

[Gary Ridley @GaryCRidley]

What's been uncovered by the BBC is shocking. It tells a tale of incompetence, chaos and cover up. We need an investigation into the City of Culture - and we need it now.

The US National Security Strategy recognised both the importance of Europe to American interests and the sovereign rights of nations.

I urge President Trump to stick to the principles in his own strategy and withdraw the threat of tariffs, for the good of US & European security.

[Mark Wallace @wallaceme]

Trump: "I doubt NATO would be there for us if we really needed them."

For shame.

[Coventry Conservatives @CVConservatives]

Cllr Gary Ridley, Leader of Coventry Conservatives reacts to todays budget where hard working family's will suffer £26 billion in tax hikes.

The conservatives are the only party with a plan to get growth going up and taxes going down. #Conservative

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Unbelievable.

She’s the highest tax raising Chancellor since the 70s and she’s already planning to come back for more next year.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Juries are not just part of our tradition. They put ordinary men and women of every walk of life at the heart of justice.

Labour wants to shred this basic right, replacing the common sense of the jury box with rule by lawyers.

It is a short term decision that risks fairness, undermines public trust, and erodes the very foundation of our justice system. David Lammy used to agree, so what's changed?

Conservatives believe in our traditions and we believe in trial by jury.

An honour to lay wreaths at the Cenotaph and London Road Cemetery yesterday on behalf of the @CVConservatives group. We shall remember them.
