I welcome that the Government is negotiating a Mayoral Strategic Authority for the geography of Devon.
Devolution offers huge new decision-making & funding for our area.
To feel the full benefits, the new MSA must fully include Exeter as one of the economic drivers of Devon.

🚨NEW: Chancellor John Healey has confirmed that 70,000 more small businesses across the country will pay no business rates at all - paid for by raising taxes on gambling.

I’ve said since my first day as Defence Secretary that I trust this Chancellor to give us what we need to keep our country safe. Today demonstrates why.
We’re delivering the biggest sustained increase in defence spending since the Cold War. Today the Chancellor not only restated our NATO commitment to spend 3.5% of GDP by 2035, but also to spend 3% by 2030.
The gravest dangers of the 20th century are returning, armed with the technologies of the 21st.
The Conservatives left our armed forces underfunded and hollowed out.
This Labour Chancellor is investing in our defence - a Britain ready to fight and a country worth fighting for. 🇬🇧🌹
I joined the Prime Minister’s Rough Sleeping Summit at Number 10 to discuss how we end rough sleeping for good.
I’m pleased that the Government has now committed nearly £1 billion towards tackling rough sleeping and supporting people into secure accommodation by Christmas.

My Budget today will help families with the pressures they face now.
It will back businesses and entrepreneurs, invest in Britain's future, and strengthen our national security.
A plan to get through this moment and build a stronger Britain.

Europe stands united with Ukraine.
Their front line for freedom is our front line for freedom.
We will be with you for as long as it takes.
Thanks to the people of Brazil and Serbia the world continues to push back on authoritarian, hard-right, populist leaders.
Congrats to @LulaOficial on a superb turnaround, and to the student-led anti-corruption movement in Serbia

Simon Heffer’s final pars in his review of Liz Truss’ new book.
Of all the best examples of the Westminster unreality machine, where parts of the illiberal metropolitan elite and press build someone up clearly beyond their abilities, she was by far the worst. Zero accountability, of course.

Erm fact check
Ahead - no. I leave after
Quit - no. I am not staying on
Read the article I am proud of everything I achieved with this chancellor and the last
The end.
Pretty shameful to listen to @Guto_Harri dipping his toe in the gutter of homophobia on @BBCRadio4 Broadcasting House this morning, which even Paddy O’Connell seemed uncomfortable with.

Second poll to give Labour an 8-point lead this weekend.
Pollster @Ipsos says it's the largest Labour lead they've found this Parliament.
Keiran Pedley says: "Whilst the headline figures do show a striking change, they confirm a pattern we have been seeing in the underlying data for some time.
"The Labour Party under Andy Burnham is resurgent, consolidating voters on the left behind them."

81 years ago, the @UN Charter came into force, with international law at its core.
The UK believes international law must apply equally and fairly to all.
That’s why we back @DapoAkandeLaw for the @CIJ_ICJ: an exceptional, independent lawyer who shares those values.

Lots in here, with more to come at Budget.
Particularly pleased we are providing a big boost to @AISecurityInst to ensure it can continue to play a leading role internationally, and recruit top talent to do so.

Green Party Councillor vehemently objects to Prime Minister spending an hour in an evening helping to raise money for a cancer charity. Ok then 🤦♂️
'Is that a really good use of his time?'
'Raising money for a cancer charity?'
The Green Party's @floschechter brands Andy Burnham going on Gogglebox as 'ridiculous'.
