@montie @KemiBadenoch I’m surprised by your comments. They are not worthy of you. Compared to the “rage” of @Nigel_Farage over the Nowak tragedy, Kemi’s response illustrates her wisdom and leadership ability. You’d be better off returning to @Conservatives - your natural home.

Sunrise today. The Aegean archipelago. Homer’s “rosy fingered dawn”.

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

To all you cynics and sceptics, set aside your prejudices and listen to her common sense and the clarity of her arguments. @KemiBadenoch you are a winner.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Been getting a lot of very positive reaction to my extended interview with @KemiBadenoch - which has now had over 600k views.
Her party may still be very unpopular but Ms Badenoch is getting increasingly popular.

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

*#* @PNH_Hotelier @BarryHavenhand O ye of little faith. @KemiBadenoch will be our Prime Minister at the next General Election … She will bring Britain back to life again. The people will prosper and be happy. Socialism will wither on the vine. 🥂

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

@BarryHavenhand Ok Barry. Come out and tell us who you do support? Maybe you fancy Andy or Wes? If one of them topples Starmer, they’ll take us back to the misery of the 1970s and penury.

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

This is the person who should be our next Prime Minister. No other political leader comes close to matching her leadership ability.

[BBC Newsnight @BBCNewsnight]

“We will end up seeing more division”

Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says she is disappointed by Nigel Farage "wading in" with his "pure cold rage" comments in response to the treatment of Henry Nowak.

@BarryHavenhand I can see you’re a Zack Polanski fan …

@MarkOnedayin16 I hope you’re right.

A find as important as the Alfred Jewel (discovered in #NorthPetherton in 1693) and exhibited @AshmoleanMuseum Oxford. Now lets make sure the precious #IlminsterRing goes to the #MuseumofSomerset in @visit_taunton

[Somerset Confidential @somersetconf.bsky.social @SomConfidential]

The #Ilminster Ring
An unusual and valuable Roman ring found near Ilminster intersects with a tale of a British Emperor at the end of the third century. Somerset Confidential takes a closer look.

@BarryHavenhand @PNH_Hotelier @BBCRadio3 Excellent Barry! It’s high time you abandoned those socialist principles of yours. I see that even Tony Blair has come round to telling Starmer, Burnham, Streeting & Co that they’ve lost the plot.

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

@PNH_Hotelier @Keir_Starmer @RachelReevesMP With everything else, it makes the UK look less hospitable to the outside world. The reason we welcome visitors across our thresholds is to bring a moment’s pleasure in their lives. We are in the happiness business … @Caterertweets

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

Yes, yes and yes.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

Millions of people in the UK have been saying the same thing for decades. Our governments are failing us. They are more concerned with being in thrall to their corporate lobbyists than actually fixing the many problems in the country - which in many cases, they cause. The UK has been plundered and asset stripped for corporate gain. Record tax burden. Cost of living crisis. Rotting infrastructures. Small businesses being punished. High streets hollowed out. We are paying more and getting less in return. The decline is noticeable everywhere. It’s absolutely shameful. Governments should be wholeheartedly serving us rather than their corporate cronies. And until this happens, the decline will continue. Enough is enough.

Here it is in a nutshell. Watch👇

[Matt Vickers MP @Matt_VickersMP]

People often ask why I'm a Conservative.

It's because people who get up early, work hard and do the right thing deserve a fair crack of the whip.

A hand up, not a handout.

Because government needs to get out of the way and let people live their lives.

Magnificent Kemi!

A well chilled Manzanilla would work nicely.

Love French Onion Soup any suggestions on wine to accompany?

Trevor Phillips’s succinct analysis. As ever, he hammers the nail on the head.

[Sky News @SkyNews]

"On May the 7th the British people did speak, and they were brutal"

After an election disaster for Labour, Sky's @TrevorPTweets reflects on Catherine West threatening to trigger a leadership contest within the party and Starmer bringing back Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman

@ChezBruce Greece now competing with the mainstream on smart wine lists. 👏

[Kit Chapman MBE @Kit_Chapman]

Watching @Keir_Starmer on telly this morning, I almost felt sorry for him. He presented himself as a pathetic, humourless, incompetent loser … still expecting to be PM at the next GE.
@Nigel_Farage presented himself as PM in waiting. On top of his brief. Oozing confidence.
