  I gave a speech today in an empty chamber. It’s about the need for a Christian restoration.

  Am hating the abuse I’m getting on here for sticking up for the Cummings’s. But they are old friends & here goes again: they’re human beings with a small child & made a decision in an emergency. PM is satisfied. Hope we can get back to discussing the recovery now. (Fond hope)

  I am deeply sad to leave my friends in the Conservative Party but also very proud to join Reform today. This is my speech explaining why.

  Over the last 2 days the Assisted Suicide Bill Committee has REFUSED amendments to exclude people with impaired judgement, the depressed and suicidal, prisoners and homeless people, those 'unduly influenced' by others, or those who are doing it because they feel a burden. 1/3

  The call for Israeli fans to be banned from attending a football match at Villa Park is outrageous, and the decision of West Midlands Police to effectively agree to a ban is totally reprehensible. If the police could not guarantee the safety of Jewish visitors because of

  A shameful day for Britain. What are we ‘recognising’ except the success of Oct 7 and the refusal of Hamas to save the lives of Palestinians faced with the inevitable & overwhelming response of Israel? We have simply legitimised the tactics of Hamas and rewarded the people who

  I've signed the motion of no confidence in Mr Speaker. This isn't personal: he's a decent man and I'm sure he thought he was doing the right thing yesterday. But Sir Lindsay allowed Labour to use the Islamist threat to change the way our democracy works. This is unacceptable. 1/

  Dom and Mary's journey was necessary and therefore within rules. What's also necessary is not attacking a man and his family for decisions taken at a time of great stress and worry, the fear of death and concern for a child. This isn't a story for the normal political shitkickery

  In a flagrant breach of Parliamentary rules the Govt gave the Defence Review to journalists, in full, before MPs received it - and it now appears defence companies were shown it in advance too. We need a proper enquiry into who authorised, and who received, this briefing

  "Now, splendidly, everything had become clear. The enemy at last was plain in view, huge and hateful, all disguise cast off. It was the Modern Age in arms." After this week I feel like Evelyn Waugh at the time of the Nazi-Soviet Pact in 1939. The politics of 'progress' has

  The Assisted Suicide Bill Committee has finished. My final speech here. This is not the Bill the public thought they were getting. It contradicts the NHS Act and the Hippocratic Oath. It's got worse, not better, in committee.

  Welcome rhetoric from Govt but here’s the difference with Reform: We won’t give illegal immigrants the right to stay for min 2.5 years, to study & work here, & to bring their families. And we won’t stay in the ECHR which stops deportation and makes a mockery of sovereignty.
