Heat pump tumble dryers being made mandatory as U.K. adopts EU rules. I push a vote to protest the way these statutory instrument regulations are slipped through

YES BOYS! 🦁

A winning start to our Test match summer 💪

Victory by 115 runs at Lord's

Of course.

Have I missed something as I don’t remember being asked if we want closer ties with the EU.

Has anyone else not been asked?

It appears that Keir Starmer has a free reign & does whatever he wants & no questions are asked.

This feels more like a dictatorship.

Oh to be in England
Now that April's there,
And whoever wakes in England
Sees, some morning, unaware,
That the lowest boughs and the brushwood sheaf
Round the elm-tree bole are in tiny leaf,
While the chaffinch sings on the orchard bough
In England—now!

Happy St. George's Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

I don't generally sign petitions, but the committee which rejected a statue of the late Queen on horseback in favour of this insubstantial robed figurine need to be pressured into reconsidering their choice. It is quite lacking in majesty, presence, and life.

Japanese football fans have been praised online after staying behind to clean up Wembley Stadium following their team’s 1–0 victory over England.

After the historic win, Japanese supporters remained in the stands to tidy the stadium before leaving.

Conservatives just forced a vote in Parliament to stop the surrender of the Chagos Islands.

Keir Starmer’s deputy promised that “If President Trump doesn’t like the deal, the deal will not go forward”.

Well he doesn’t. So is it time for another U-turn?

[Bruges Group 🇬🇧 @BrugesGroup]

The Chagos Islands never belonged to Mauritius. For administrative purposes, they were simply governed as part of the same colony.

What’s more, in 1965, Mauritius accepted a compensatory payment of £3m (approx. £75m today) when the BIOT was established.

They have no claim.

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

The Chagos reserve is indescribably valuable, stretches to 640,000 square KMs and is one of the largest marine protected areas on Earth - larger than France.
This UK government is one of the only - possible THE only - country in the world that is currently reversing marine protection.
This despite the UK playing a lead role in securing global agreement to protect 30% of the world’s oceans by 2030.
Here is just some of what we are abandoning:

[No Farmers, No Food @NoFarmsNoFoods]

Ed Miliband has approved thousands of screws of mass-scale solar panels on UK farmland and ignored local community objections.

Solar panels shouldn’t be used on prime farmland. Instead, put them on brownfields, car parks, roofs and roads.

British soldiers home from Afghanistan after doing nothing to help the USA

[Kate Hoey @CatharineHoey]

Perhaps the BBC could get it right. The U.K. is NOT handing back the Chagos Islands to Mauritius. Mauritius never owned the islands. We are giving them away to a country that has no right to them and then paying billions to rent back Diego Garcia our own territory Madness @BBCNews

[Nick Timothy MP @NJ_Timothy]

Elected politicians should never fear the voters.

I oppose the cancellation of the Suffolk county council elections.

[Toby Young @toadmeister]

With 95% of solar panel components and 75% of lithium batteries coming from China, Ed Miliband's reckless Net Zero drive is surrendering Britain's energy security to the Communist state, says Paul Homewood. https://t.co/rMBmQfLSCY
