Time for @LabourSatvir to come clean - was she lying when she said this just a few months back: https://t.co/1avLhwYMfE - or just incompetent, despite the internal and external reports spelling it out? @dailyecho

[Jack Shaw @JackTShaw]

Southampton Council publicly confirms that is has requested Exceptional Financial Support. If the Government doesn't grant that request "a Section 114 Notice will be necessary".

Today in the House of Commons there will be two Opposition Day Debates, but what are they?

[Royston Smith @Royston_Smith]

This is very good news.

Labour's part time Park and Ride plans: https://t.co/dnLAIM7Ujt - We need to get Southampton moving, not grind it to a halt, like this anti-motorist Labour Council seem determined to do!

@MrsMurphySoton @DanFitzhenry This is one of the reasons why we have been doing this: https://t.co/ESft44I7Wy - appreciate some may not welcome, but a number of serious safeguarding issues, like the link, have only been identified because of doing this.

[Royston Smith @Royston_Smith]

Some very welcome help for @SOU_Airport

@alanwhiteheadmp @BBCr4today You can't say I haven't repeatedly been raising concerns over the Labour Council's own energy company - the full scandal laid bare here: https://t.co/jW7BTU38OI - why so silent on this?

[Southampton Conservatives @SotonInTouch]

Southampton Labour vote, once again, against supporting jobs and businesses in #Southampton #FreeParking #AntiMotorist

[Southampton Conservatives @SotonInTouch]

Southampton Labour have a lot of questions to answer over this 👇

Support our campaign for #FREEPARKING in Southampton until Spring 2021: https://t.co/NYBXPzvc4S

Then as now, they asked nothing but to serve their country. We thank them all for their service. @PoppyLegion #RemembranceDay #RemembranceSunday2020

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning

@SouthamptonCC Another dreadful decision from our anti-motorist, Southampton Labour run Council. Local Conservatives call for free parking to support jobs and businesses - Labour introduce new charges for our most vulnerable Blue badge holders in an attempt to move them on from their visits...

[Steven Galton @StevenGalton]

Are you joking? This thread is around exactly the type of active travel measures we've been saying should be progressed - instead of Labour's idealistic, anti-motorist attacks on our main arterial routes, to force people out of their cars by increasing journey times(congestion)!

[Steven Galton @StevenGalton]

Not hybrid or alternative fuel technology, not zero emission fully electric technology - more diesel engines. Labour could be doing more if they were serious about cutting pollution as quickly as possible... a case of do as we say, not as we do #LeadByExample

[David Fuller @D_J_Fuller]

It doesn’t sound like any discussion was had with organisers before this decision was taken. If this is the case it’s another example of the contempt with which Southampton City Council holds businesses.

[Royston Smith @Royston_Smith]

Bitterly disappointed with the eleventh hour decision by @SouthamptonCC to cancel tomorrow’s boat shows. These events were critical to Southampton’s economy and recovery. Southampton City Council has serious questions to answer. @SotonBoatShow @OceanVillageUK

[Steven Galton @StevenGalton]

Our Labour run Council needs to explain their last minute decision to cancel the outdoor boatshow here in Southampton, fully sharing the evidence to back up their thinking. https://t.co/1mCb5pv1MM

[CFoI @CFoI]

In FCDO Qs today, @Royston_Smith asked Middle East Minister @JamesCleverly what conversations he has had with Gulf counterparts to help Lebanon recover following last month's blast in Beirut, as well as raising concerns about funding going to Hezbollah.

[David Fuller @D_J_Fuller]

Whilst Southampton faces a jobs crisis the Labour Council are more interested in penalizing motorists than seriously trying to protect residents livelihoods. https://t.co/ScJNZqzCAC
