Shoplifting is at its highest level on record. Serial thieves are getting soft sentences only to reoffend again and again. Now Starmer is looking to scrap prison sentences for offences like theft and burglary. That would be a green light for even more criminality👇

Labour in trashing our economy latest... This is NOT unexpected. Starmer and his government are choking the life out of business. Why? Because they don’t get that government doesn’t create growth, business does. Yet again, our country is getting poorer under Labour.

The near silence that followed the harrowing Southport attacks led to media disinformation and public distrust. Today I challenged the Solicitor General on the Government’s muteness – a failure that has eroded public confidence in our justice system. See my intervention below:

Pleased to intervene in today's debate on knife crime led by an impassioned speech from Ben Obese-Jecty MP. Educating boys + girls about mutual and self-respect is an important part of tackling violent crime. Governments must do more in terms of prevention and early intervention.

The reinstatement of Eurostar stopping in Ashford and Ebbsfleet is a vital factor for Visit Kent tourism growth which I raised in a Westminster debate today. Thank you Blake Stephenson MP for the enthusiastic support during your excellent opening speech. My intervention is below.

Very happy to co-host our 7th Annual Apprenticeships Fair in #Maidstone today, alongside my Kent Conservatives colleagues Katie Lam MP, Helen Whately MP and Laura Trott MP. Over 1500 local students met an abundance of businesses offering open doors to high-quality careers. Everybody wins!

Great fun cheering-on local swimmers at this year’s Riverside Rotary charity swim relay at the SwimIn Maidstone leisure centre. Their hard work has already raised over £14,000 and counting for Kent children’s charity Demelza Charity. Donate here: justgiving.com/page/space2bem…

It can't be right for people suffering serious, health-related mobility challenges, to be denied a blue badge just because their condition may not extend to the three year eligibility criterion. Read about our campaign here: kentonline.co.uk/kent/news/blue… KentOnline Kent Messenger

Unusually this year, Orthodox and Catholic Easter are on the same day. As Christians celebrate Easter together, we are reminded of the unity and shared hope that this sacred time brings. At this time of year, I reflect on those who are unable to celebrate their faith’s most

Cross-examination tips: 1 Listening to answers is key to asking good questions. 2 Haranguing a witness rarely (if ever) works. 3 It never works when the witness (a) stays calm and (b) obviously knows more about the subject than you do.

Cyber attacks have wiped a staggering £1bn off M&S value, a direct assault on a great 🇬🇧 institution and a cornerstone of our high streets. Today I pressed the Solicitor General on what role Attorney General's Office is playing in overseeing agency responses to such crimes👇

Labour have blocked every serious step to stop illegal and legal migration. Today’s vague promises come with no plan and no timetable. Our Deportation Bill is tougher and ready to deliver. They should stop taking the public for fools and back it.

Good to be supporting Kemi Badenoch on the front benches UK House of Commons today, during Keir Starmer's statement on the 🇬🇧🇪🇺 Summit. His EU deal is moving us backwards, not forwards, whilst re-opening long settled old Brexit battles. When The Labour Party negotiate, #Britain loses!

13,000 teachers’ jobs are on the line because The Labour Party broke their promise to compensate schools for their jobs tax & unfunded pay rises. If they don't honour their word in the June spending review, more teachers jobs will be at risk. Sign our petition StopTeacherRedundancies.com

8 months ago, Labour freed criminals early—they popped champagne. One killed a man hours later. Now Labour wants no jail for sentences under 12 months—and just 22% served for others. Build more prisons. Deport foreign criminals. Clear court backlogs. Do it now—we’ll back it.
