Markets were sanguine about the Budget when @RachelReevesMP was delivering it. But now investors are absorbing the actual details and numbers, they're considerably less sanguine. UK government cost of borrowing climbing...👇

#MUFC don't need a new manager. They need new owners. They need Glazers out, Ratcliffe buying club fully, a proper structure with sporting director, footballing identity re-established, dead wood out of squad & stronger characters in. Give Ten Hag a chance. Rinse/repeat pointless

Hamas said Israel bombed a hospital and killed 500 people. We now have found out that: 1. Israel didn’t do it, it was a misfire by a terror group. 2. The hospital wasn’t bombed, it was a parking lot. 3. There is no evidence that 500 died beyond what Hamas said. And our media parroted it all without question..

I have huge respect for the two remaining Conservative mayoral candidates. But we owe it to Londoners to give our members the broadest choice to ensure we select the best candidate. So I am asking the Party to reopen the process to allow a third candidate to go forward.

NEW: DWP Sec @MelJStride tells @AndrewMarr9 he'd back @scullyp's return to the London mayoral race "I think Paul Scully is an excellent minister who understands London really well, if the decision is taken that he is readmitted then that would be an interesting move" #korski

When Archer resigned in 2000 the party reran the process. It was much later in the day but it didn’t stop us running a pretty decent campaign. Surely that has to happen now. Having a choice of two, however good they are, just isn’t reasonable or sensible.

The Privileges Committee report is utterly damning for @BorisJohnson. It finds that he *deliberately* misled the House on an issue of the greatest importance and that he did so *repeatedly*. When the House votes on it, we'll see how many MPs stand up for integrity in public life

No. CCO cocked this up ludicrously. Paul Scully was and is the outstanding candidate to fight Sadiq Khan. CCO have given this election to Khan. Unforgivable incompetence

Labour’s reckless ULEZ expansion will hit Londoners hard. I will scrap it on day one as Mayor.

This research shows the devastating impact #ULEZ expansion will have on small businesses. In outer London we already know this. Inner London residents who rely on window cleaners, builders, plumbers etc many of whom live in suburbs will also feel it. Scrap it. Think again.

Paul would make a great Mayor. Experienced, knows London like the back of his hand, represents a key London borough and has a record of getting things done. All of which is in stark contrast to the current Mayor.
#London needs a Mayor who understands the challenges and opportunities it faces - @scullyp has been dedicated to London as Minister and gets things done. Join us in asking him to stand as Mayor for London #ScullyLondon #Scully4London #TeamScully

Am sorry - this is pathetic and where as a nation we can seem so bloody small. He’s the prime minister of our country, representing Britain around the world. And at events where, if he hadn’t turned up, people would have been complaining even more loudly.
