This is what my dog thinks of the absolute bollocks you’re spouting

[Robert Jenrick @RobertJenrick]

Kemi Badenoch: “I don’t want to hear” white lives matter.
Keir Starmer: “There’s no such thing as two-tier policing”.

Never have politicians been so out of touch with the people they’re paid to represent.

[Joshua Godfrey @JoshuaGodfrey]

This country can do so much better than Nigel Farage.

It pains me that this ego driven, grievance thriving charlatan has convinced people that only he only can solve the challenges our country faces.

[Rupert Myers @RupertMyers]

Just so refreshingly clear, honest, and articulate

[Wes Streeting @wesstreeting]

I’m not going to amplify Reform’s ad by sharing it, but the wilful misrepresentation of Kemi Badenoch - selectively quoting what she said about ‘white lives matter’ - is disgraceful and dangerous.

It needs to be challenged, including by those of us who are not Conservatives.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

I don’t want to hear about Black Lives Matter.
I don’t want to hear about White Lives Matter.
Everyone matters.
Henry Nowak matters.

Robert Jenrick has become a parody of Robert Jenrick. He's no longer a politician. He's a piece of performance art.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Incredibly, 90% of the new Labour MPs at the last election came from a trade union, charity or public-sector background. Barely 1/5th of the Cabinet has any private-sector experience. In the Shadow Cabinet, 3/4 of us do. That distinction matters.

The skills Labour MPs have acquired are in lobbying for more funding, campaigning for more benefits or more red tape. Britain needs a new generation of politician.

Only the Conservative Party can build a team for the economic war effort required after Burnham/Starmer have finished this catastrophic experiment. We will need to fix every aspect of our system at once. There will be no kicking decisions into the long grass, only rolling our sleeves up and getting to work.

If you've ever thought about a career in politics but decided it was too risky or you wouldn’t fit in, now is your time.…We are looking for people from every walk of life who know how to get stuff done.

In return, I will make politics work for you.

Britain does not lack talent. It lacks a system that draws that talent into public life. Join my team and help us get Britain working again.

The Labour Party is now in civil war.

Meanwhile no one is running the country.

Good. It stinks.

[Jack @FFS_WhatNow]

I would like to congratulate Led By Donkeys for all their efforts in holding this government and Prime Minister to account over the past two years.

Great work, lads 👀

[Seb @Cllr_Seb]

It’s not only Kier Starmer having a bad day!

@reformparty_uk have kicked out Jo Monk and her son from the party.

Jo was stabbed in the back and removed as leader last week, and had been vocal in saying no to Amos. Looks like reform would rather defend Amos than Jo.

Amos has a colourful CV including calling the late queen a parasite, being caught with his trousers down on Hampstead Heath and wanting to twin Worcester with Gaza.

Yes, you are right Alex, there has been an update!

Except you seem to have conveniently missed what the update is - so here’s a little reminder for you 👇

It seems you got it wrong… again.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

As I said on @bbcquestiontime - Farage’s £5m bung from some crypto tycoon in Thailand absolutely stinks. And Yusuf’s evasion here makes it stink even more. If Starmer or Badenoch had been caught doing this without declaring it, Farage & Yusuf would demand they resign.

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.

[Joshua Godfrey @JoshuaGodfrey]

Farage is a complete fraud.

He's not in politics for you. He's in politics for himself.

[Conservatives @Conservatives]

Nigel Farage secretly trousered £5 million in cash, and he didn’t want you to know.
