Privileged to attend & lay a wreath obo @Lambeth_Tories at the Brixton Windrush Square African & Caribbean War Memorial Remembrance Sunday service
Good to see Capt (Ret'd) Paul Chambers Chairman of the British West Indies Regiment receive a medal to celebrate his decades of work
Privileged to lay a wreath obo @Lambeth_Tories at today's as ever well-attended Streatham War Memorial service for the fallen across 2 World Wars & in recent conflicts
@SteveReedMP spoke for us all later in thanking Roger Bowdery for 32 years' great service of managing the event
Good to be back out in Clapham Town on Sat with fellow @Lambeth_Tories election candidate from May @ForresterJJ & other colleagues
We're delivering @KemiBadenoch message on @Conservatives economic policies to residents:
Rewarding hard work, backing business and cutting red tape
Privileged to have been in audience of a sell-out, spellbinding @StreathamChoral concert under baton of Calum Fraser, as they performed Duke Ellington's Sacred Concert.
@BrixChamber also excelled, as did soprano Verushka
& all taking place in great Streatham Hill Theatre venue.
Good to have been on HMS Wellington's deck on Tue to hear @KemiBadenoch remind us that @Conservatives are the only Party with a credible plan to get to 3% of GDP by 2030 to fund our defence by cutting the welfare bill & wasteful spending by £70bn
@jcartlidgemp also spoke at start
This is v good to see and isn't surprising on the back of 4 polls in a row that have shown @Conservatives to be in 2nd place to @UKLabour and with @reformparty_uk relegated to 3rd place:
- today's @YouGov poll
- 25 Oct @Ipsos_in_the_UK
- 14 Oct @Moreincommon_
- 13 Oct @YouGov
The Conservative Party has overtaken Reform UK in the electionmapsuk polling tracker.
This is the first time the Tories have polled ahead of Reform since January 2025.

A few welcome announcements in first @JohnHealey_MP budget, but delivering it 1 month ahead of last year's indicated likelihood of it being a "deferral budget"
So it proved to be, preferring to wait for Spending Review & after both Milburn & Timms reviews

Impressive @KemiBadenoch response to @JohnHealey_MP's budget & @UKLabour frontbench know it
Key takeaways from @OBR_UK
- Growth next y'r downgraded
- Inflation up every y'r to 2030
- Real household disposable income lower every y'r
- debt interest bill £14bn higher than expected
Is that it?
John Healey had a big job to do cleaning up Labour’s mess. This Budget fails to do it.
Britain is overspent, overborrowed and overtaxed. This Budget does not come close to meeting the moment.

Many congratulations to @HKane on receiving the 2026 Men's Ballon d'Or

May this win for @HKane be the inspiration for so v many talented young English players working their way up in the game
The best player in the world.

Good to see @Ipsos_in_the_UK polling data evidence @Conservatives in 2nd place to @UKLabour
This follows up on @YouGov 13.10 poll & @Moreincommon_ 14.10 poll evidencing the same
Polling for Lab in these 3 polls fluctuates wildly between 32% & 24%, but between 24% & 23% for Con
NEW headline voting intention from Ipsos
📊Labour on 32% with a lead of +8 – the largest Labour lead Ipsos have recorded this parliament
📊Conservatives take second place the first time since June 2025
📊Reform UK down 3 points and Greens down 5

A great shame for all who've been preparing for what would have been London's Diwali on Trafalgar Square celebrations tomo
Clearly no prep work could have taken place in the Square today, which seemingly was essential? Tomo's forecast is sunshine for L'dn

.@KemiBadenoch's speech on Tue showed why @Conservatives are the only party with a plan to reduce the UK deficit:
1. £70bn in savings identified, of which £36bn in welfare
2. >50% of savings to go towards paying down deficit
3. Cut UK taxes to get Britain working again
Go, Kemi!

Just one day after @YouGov poll also showing @Conservatives in 2nd place to @UKLabour and with @reformparty_uk relegated to 3rd place, it's good to see that order of things also replicated in this @Moreincommon_ poll, with its data also collected after @KemiBadenoch B'ham speech.
Great to see these figures from Sun & Mon survey data:
The first @YouGov poll showing @reformparty_uk in 3rd place since 2024
It will be good to see this @Conservatives momentum under @KemiBadenoch's impressive leadership continue to build
Go, Kemi! "It's the economy, stupid"
"It's the economy, stupid"
@Conservatives policies reflect this mantra:
- halve Employers' NI for those aged 21-24
- abolish business rates for thousands of high street businesses
- intro of "get to work programme" for young people
- make tax system fairer for working families
With personal finances a major theme for this year's party conference season, which party do Britons think would leave them financially best off?
Conservatives: 19%
Labour: 17%
Reform UK: 12%
Greens: 6%
Lib Dems: 3%
