After 1,700 fines were issued for illegal parking this weekend, I asked the Minister:

Is it really fair for council tax payers to foot the £200 bill every time a car is towed — just because a driver chose to ignore the rules?

It's time for the Government to act.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

If Ukraine is forced to surrender its sovereign territory to Russia, it will be the greatest betrayal of a European ally since Poland in 1945.

The UK must lead in Europe in defence of Ukraine. We cannot stand back and watch as Zelensky is bullied by Trump.

0.08% expected growth by 2038 a CPTPP 0.08% by 2035 - Australia deal 0.07% by 2035 - Japan deal 0.03% by 2035 - NZ deal MINUS 4% - long term loss of growth caused by the Brexit that enabled these ‘wins’

Just a reminder of what trade deals “with the rest of the world” have done for us compared with what we have lost and continue to lose…
