Powerful & accurate.

[Conservatives @Conservatives]

Watch in full: @KemiBadenoch's powerful response to the murder of Henry Nowak and the shocking police bodycam footage ⬇️

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Distressing to watch. As is this whole case. But will anything change?

[Chris Philp MP @CPhilpOfficial]

** Warning distressing content **

As Henry Nowak lay dying, saying repeatedly that he couldn’t breathe and that he had been stabbed, he was handcuffed and officers cautioned him

All because they unquestioningly believed his murderer’s claims Henry had racially abused them

This was totally wrong

They did not handcuff the murderer when he was arrested

The police should not believe false allegations of racism, especially when made by criminals

Labour's Welfare Secretary admitted to Peter Mandelson what he won’t tell you.

Labour raised your taxes to pay for more benefits.

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Shocking. 😮

[Chris Philp MP @CPhilpOfficial]

Apparently this video isn’t enough evidence to convict the guy in blue for assaulting all three police officers

Yet Lucy Connolly got two years in prison for an off colour tweet - prosecutions Keir Starmer encouraged

Labour’s two tier justice system has to end

Lovely weather ☀️ again for day 2 of the Lymelight Festival in Newcastle town centre. Great music stages outside the Guildhall and in the Ironmarket, plus lots of fantastic artisan stalls to enjoy. A brilliant atmosphere in the town centre today. Well worth a visit! 🎶🛍️

Happy St George’s Day 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

The Cross of St George is proudly flying on a lovely spring morning in Queens Gardens in the town centre☀️

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Lovely day for this month’s Artisan market in Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre. 🍰🍪🍯🌺

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Thank you @Matt_VickersMP

[Matt Vickers MP @Matt_VickersMP]

✅ A smashing day out on the doors with @SimonTagg and the Newcastle-under-Lyme @Conservatives.

They’re working hard and focused on your real local priorities.

#VoteConservative on 7 May 🗳️

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Good move.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

Too many towns and villages have had to accept criminality in their communities because each attempt to deal with illegal traveller sites has fallen foul of the ECHR.

The @Conservatives will take back our streets and green spaces, leave the ECHR, and get Britain working again.

This is great!! Watch it live as 4 Astronauts blast off to go around the moon. 🌖 good luck!

[NASA @NASA]

We're going around the Moon. Come watch with us. Artemis II's four-astronaut crew is lifting off from @NASAKennedy on an approximately 10-day mission that will bring us closer to living on the Moon and Mars. The launch window opens at 6:24pm ET (2224 UTC). https://t.co/X27QJejNDt

Well said Kemi

@AJogee @StaffordshireCC Are you seriously suggesting I don’t take racism seriously? There was an ongoing investigation into the conduct of Dean by the council I lead.
I’ve stood firmly alongside my Conservative colleagues @StaffordshireCC in making it clear anyone holding such views should resign.

[Hits Radio Staffordshire and Cheshire News @HitsStaffsNews]

Staffordshire County Council's leader has confirmed that Councillor Lynn Dean has had the whip suspended.

Martin Murray says it follows "unacceptable comments" made on an anonymous account which was not disclosed during vetting.

A fitting tribute.

[Newcastle-u-Lyme BC @NewsNBC]

A portrait of a councillor who passed away during his Mayoral year is now serving as a visual reminder of his life and legacy.

We unveiled the painting of Cllr. Barry Panter as a lasting tribute to his life, service and contribution to the local community 🤍

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Well done!

Government U-turn. All local elections going ahead 🗳️

I stood up and said NO when the government offered to cancel @NewsNBC elections last December.

In Newcastle-under-Lyme, we confirmed straight away that they would go ahead.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer abandons plan to delay 30 local council elections in England in May https://t.co/vF79Bs52Qr

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

It’s not forgot.

https://t.co/Yp89QDEXOb

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Fake, corrupt. Or both?

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

This is running away from elections, plain and simple.
There is no justification for cancelling elections in Staffordshire under the excuse of “Local Government Reorganisation” when no further work can happen on LGR until the Gov decides in the summer.
https://t.co/euWYvLnUrR

[Simon Tagg @SimonTagg]

Elections in @NewsNBC to go ahead -the right thing to do 🗳️

Yet astonishingly elections in neighbouring Cannock & Tamworth are cancelled

There is no justification for using LGR to cancel elections in Staffordshire.

This is Labour councillors there running away from the voters
