It was an honour to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph this morning. This Sunday we remember all those who never came home, the families who never stopped waiting and we pay tribute to all those who wear the uniform today.

This is why I love London.
London cabbies lined up on Westminster bridge ready to take veterans home, free of charge, from the Remembrance Sunday service in Whitehall. 👏👏👏

Before we look to our future we must look to our past, shoulder to shoulder with our partners and allies. Today, the UK Carrier Strike Group pause to honour all those who served and sacrificed. #LestWeForget

UK military satellite Titania has successfully launched into orbit. Alongside Project Inaros, we can see threats sooner, making the UK safer. Titania & Inaros are British-built and designed, meaning more highly skilled jobs, a stronger industrial base and a more secure UK.

There’s always a tweet.
Depressing to see media mission to discredit someone who stops playing their game & uses celebrity to help others. Keep going @rustyrockets.

I haven't been on this site for a bit. But I haven't seen anyone share the photo the New Statesman staff staged in 2013 of Russell Brand as Christ, and themselves as his disciples. It seems to have been scrubbed from the web. It made me angry then and it makes me angry now.

Because I’m the Shadow Minister for Defence Procurement Thomas.
Why does Tory MP Ben Obese-Jecty keep asking defence questions of the government in the House of Commons? If he's so concerned about defence he should be asking why his party devastated Britain's armed forces and defence infrastructure. @BenObeseJecty @KemiBadenoch @Conservatives
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Ben Obese-Jecty is the Shadow Minister for Defence Procurement. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Obese…

Out with the Braintree Conservative Team today in Black Notley. Lots of positivity on the doorstep, and real impatience with Reform run Essex County Council.

Brilliant to be on the long list to be the Conservative candidate for Mayor of London. I’m looking forward to the competition and can’t wait to speak to members all over our great city. Together, we will make London a city we can all be proud of again.
