🗳️ Fantastic to be with Councillors Bartch & Keir in Whinfield this morning as they launch their campaign for the 2027 May Local Elections.

🗣️ Some fantastic conversations with residents who share our view that we need to kick Labour out of the Town Hall.

[Jack James 🇬🇧📰 @JackPJames]

Lovely morning out delivering letters to residents in Whinfield today.

Reminding them that their local Conservative Councillors are the only ones standing up for green spaces in their area.

When you elect Conservatives, you have visible signs of improvement in your area!

@SuellaBraverman and you one of the worst Ministers @Conservatives

[Jamie Bartch @JamieBartch]

Typical Greens. They say one thing to keep their activist base happy, then backtrack the moment they realise ordinary voters find it abhorrent. We’ve seen it before in Darlo. Disingenuous opportunists, saying whatever suits the audience in front of them.

[Chris Philp MP @CPhilpOfficial]

You literally condoned it in the tweet below Kemi’s, Zack

You said it was “gut wrenching” that these violent thugs had been jailed and said their violence was just part of “protest”

You are so dishonest you try to deny what you clearly wrote

No word of sympathy in your tweet for the injured police officer, I notice

Had a fantastic day on Saturday as the Darlington Conservatives opened our new office just in time for the Local Elections in 2027.

We were joined by @kevinhollinrake who provided valuable insight & advice to members.

Here’s to another fantastic year ahead for the association!

There is an alternative to this Labour chaos.

A better future where we cut spending, lower taxes and deliver cheaper bills.

This is @KemiBadenoch’s chamber, you’re just sitting in it.

8 possible by-elections already (!) due to Reform suspensions, resignations and sackings is a disgrace to voters.

It’s not even been 24 hours since counting finished.

Their party spent £7 million on these elections. There’s no excuse anymore.

[Liam Bones @LiamBones]

Time and time again Reform are putting people up for elected office and then suspending them for vile views after they have been elected -that’s if the don’t resign immediately!

This is the problem when local elections are fought on national issues.

We all have to ask - why do so many reform candidates have these horrendous views?

So many of these candidates are just wrong’uns.

[Kevin Edger @KEdge23]

Last year in the locals 2025, it was:

Reform 32% of the vote.
Tories 15% of the vote.

This year in the locals 2026, it was:

Reform 27% of the vote.
Tories 20% of the vote.

That’s massive progress for the Tories, more than halving the gap.

By next year we should have crossover with Kemi Badenoch’s leadership.

[Conservatives @Conservatives]

The Conservatives are coming back!

[Kevin Hollinrake MP @kevinhollinrake]

Officially outperforming the polls by 6%

A tribute to the hard work of our candidates, volunteers and leader, @KemiBadenoch

More to do, more to come

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

You may not agree with me, but you will always know where you stand with me.

Today in Billericay, a heckler tried to shout me down as I spoke about the normalisation of hatred towards Jews. I did not back down, because it needs to be said. British Jews are being targeted and too many people are pretending this is the same experience of other minorities. This lady implied Muslims are being similarly targeted. This is simply not true.

Let's be honest about what is happening. Certain groups (in particular but not solely Islamic Extremists) are creating a climate of fear and intimidation that is normalising Jew hatred. I will never stand for that. Governments have spent too long hand-wringing, making excuses and hoping it would go away. It is time to call this what it is: a national emergency in our attitude, our urgency and our response.

I will always engage with people who disagree with me. That is politics. But there is a difference between argument and intimidation. Shouting does not make a bad case good. It's done to silence others. And it certainly does not change the truth.

The truth is that British Jews have been made to feel less safe in their own country. Our country. They are being singled out, threatened and harassed in ways that should shame everyone in public life. If we do not stand up now and stop this rise in antisemitism, then why bother saying "Never Again" at Holocaust Memorial Day? Because this is how it starts.

I am not prepared to play along with the pretence that this is normal, or manageable, or just another example of tension between groups. It really is not. It is targeted hatred and it is getting worse.

So my message is simple. Not here. Not in Britain. And not on our watch. We need to stop the hand-wringing and start doing the right thing. That means standing with British Jews openly, unapologetically and without fear.

[Kevin Hollinrake MP @kevinhollinrake]

Nigel Farage suddenly pulled out of @bbclaurak today, immediately following the revelation about an undeclared £5m donation from a Crypto King living in Thailand.

Apparently he simply “changed his mind” about appearing.

No scrutiny. No declaration. No accountability.

One rule for Reform, another for everyone else.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Why did Farage run scared from news interviews today?

It’s because there’s something fishy about the £5 million he took. And he knows it.

He’s normally very happy to shout from a TV studio -as long as he controls the terms.

The truth is that cash wasn’t for Reform.

Find this selective (and possibly sectarian) Puritanism quite funny when her party wants to legalise heroin

[Jamie Bartch @JamieBartch]

@11Notabot @KemiBadenoch @JohnJamesNI This isn’t true the Motion was led by the conservatives along with Reform.

[Barry Flux @BarryFlux]

Not at the count in my old patch, but hearing this is the result from Cramlington South West

Reform. 212
Lib 7
Independent 13
Conservative 278
Green 116
Labour 187
