After 43 years as a Detective and then a civilian working for Kent police I have finally retired (early). Now indulging passions for Freemasonry and Photography

@Helen_Whately You knew this when in power and did nothing to alter it. You have had your chance and no longer deserve to be in power

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@Helen_Whately @Conservatives @restate_thinks You could and should have done this when in power. It is a blatantly abused system. Too little too late. I shall not be voting for you.

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@Helen_Whately @Conservatives Pure electioneering. Your centrist policies brought this about. Too little, too late. There is now a realistic alternative

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@Helen_Whately @KemiBadenoch Too little to late

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

Wow not even elected and here is his first U-Turn
Burnham 'will drop reverse Brexit call' amid Makerfield by-election

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@Helen_Whately I wrote to Ms Whately over five years ago trying to get her to understand that the age of two party politics was facing an inevitable demise and that unless the welfare budget was brought under control the Conservative Party would be out of Government. Too little too late.

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@BenObeseJecty And received so much publicity. Always remember that there is no such thing as bad publicity

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@Helen_Whately Had the last Conservative Government implemented the advantages offered by Brexit and not prevaricated it would probably have still been in power. Instead it continued to side up to Europe where the two major powers, Germany and France are now in financial trouble.

If the right honourable gentleman is suggesting that we ever get to a position where we cannot return illegal immigrants to their country of origin, then he is proposing international chaos.

We desperately need a new Margaret Thatcher and soon. 🇬🇧

[John Redwood @johnredwood]

The EU ‘s move to yet more tariffs and controls shows how right we were to leave a protectionist and unfriendly Union. The government needs to abandon its humiliating re set.

“This is a matter of public confidence as much as law.”
Quite so. It is axiomatic that justice must not only be done, but must also be seen to be done. A man who arms himself with a knife with the intention of defending his religion against a ‘blasphemer’, and who then states “I'm going to kill you”, and lunges numerous times attempting to kill or maim that ‘blasphemer’, is guilty of rather more than assault and possession of a blade in a public space.

Today is Battle of Britain Day, when we remember The Few, who defended our nation and fought against tyranny. We must never forget the sacrifice they made for our freedom. #LestWeForget #BoB85 #battleofbritainday

🚨 | Margaret Thatcher - ‘The state has no source of money other than the money that people earn themselves.

There is no such thing as public money there is only taxpayers money’

💥 Rachel Reeves didn't get this memo in her studies. Robbing the public blind through taxation.

So within 24 hours of us announcing our plan; Afghanistan and Rwanda have said they would do a deal with @Nigel_Farage to take illegal migrants from the UK.

The “no we can’t” brigade are seething.

[Patrick King @Rothiemay]

@AllisonPearson @Fox_Claire Whilst I was the Crime and Incident Registrar for Kent Police I tried to limit some of the craziest recording ideals of the Home Office though this was regularly challenged by HM Inspectorate of Constabulary who were complicit. Hence rising crime stats which are totally useless

The 2025 meeting of Our Great Priory, held at the prestigious @freemasonshall, was an outstanding success.
Congratulations to all those honoured with Great Ranks. We hope the occasion offered a meaningful opportunity to reconnect with fellow Brother Knights.

Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London expressed his views surrounding Donald Trump.

“If Trump wins I will leave the UK”

It’s been 4 days since Trump gained victory in the US

When are you leaving? @MayorofLondon

On 3 May, Christchurch hosted a meeting of Sepulchre Preceptory & Sandeman Priory to celebrate V.H. & R.E. Malcolm Slater’s 50th Anniversary. The M.E. & S. G.M., Paul R. Clement G.C.T. presented Malcolm with his certificate, reflecting on his extensive Masonic career. 👏
