I welcome the Chancellor’s change of mind when it comes to the winter fuel payments. She got it wrong last year. I never understand the derision a “U turn” attracts. Get it wrong, change your mind, put it right. If this is as a result of opposition pressure that’s what it’s for.

Keir Starmer's tiny tarrif deal with President Trump isn't 'historic', it's a lost opportunity.

It is with deep sadness we share the devastating news this morning that whilst dealing with a major incident at Bicester Motion yesterday evening, we are today mourning the loss of two fire fighters.
A member of the public also sadly died in the incident.
Two further firefighters sustained serious injuries and are currently in hospital.
Ten fire crews attended the incident at Bicester Motion having been called to the scene at 18:39. Four crews remain at the scene with the fire now under control.
My thoughts are with the families and friends at this difficult time.

As I travel across the country the message is the same: Labour is making everything worse.
Don’t gamble away your local council. Only the Conservatives deliver better services and lower taxes.

Today, LibDem & Labour Cllrs voted on a budget that prioritises #Oxford over #Oxfordshire for the 4th year in a row.
@Conservatives proposed an amendment that would have cut waste & invested £6m extra in our roads.
Residents will now have their say at #LocalElections2025 🗳

Labour were in coalition with the LibDems for 2 years when #Oxford's costly, camera-controlled traffic schemes were contracted.
Now, they've done a u-turn and they're blissfully following @GroupOx-@OxonTories' policy!

Welcome to Common Sense! 🤷♂

Ever thought that the roads in North #Oxfordshire are worse than those in #Oxford?
@OxfordshireCC spends 62p on a road in #Cherwell for every £1 in Oxford.
Fairer highways funding is needed.
#Banbury & #Bicester have the poorest funded roads in the county.
That *must* change. – at Banbury, England

As a father I know all too well the impact of rare diseases. The steps we’re taking now means that soon, families like mine will have hope. The mission of the @OHRareDisease Centre to develop new treatments for rare diseases is hugely ambitious, but this is the right time, the right place and the right team to make it happen. I’m excited to be involved.

🤦♂️ A £51million blunder from the Lib Dem led coalition at County Hall. It was their decision to “pause” the A40 improvements which would have delivered the access to this P&R. Now, as I said previously, it’s going to be years until this site can be used… oxfordmail.co.uk/news/245508…

Has @OxfordshireCC cut your child's #SpareSeat bus place to school?
If so, please spread the word about my motion tomorrow and get in touch to share your experience.
#Oxfordshire parents and carers deserve better. – at Banbury, England

🔶 Liberal Democrat’s in #Oxfordshire seem to be deliberately keeping quiet on their leaflets about their record running our local councils. I can’t think why… hiking up our council tax to record levels whilst wasting millions mainly in #Oxford… #VoteConservative

Pompey political legend, former Lord Mayor of Portsmouth (not once but 3 times), former dockyard worker and a friend to all… Portsmouth North, Frank Jonas BEM has something to say…

People say politicians are all the same - yes, most are - keen to do their best for their community. The differences of opinion on how to achieve this is where they differ and why we have elections.
Rare that the Union Flag is not flying in Bampton Market Square but I suppose there’s good reason this weekend.
