Absolutely delighted our fantastic Minister for Disabled People, Health and Work Mims Davies MP has been promoted to Minister of State. She is a passionate advocate for disabled people and is motivated by making a difference. This couldn’t be more deserved.
Huge thanks to representatives from NHS, Okehampton Town Council and @NHSproperty for meeting and working with me on plans for the future of our hospital.
Key now is continued collaboration from all to ensure viable options for disused ward are developed. themoorlander.co.uk/news/home/1471…
I’m proud of Department for Work and Pensions investigators and Crown Prosecution Service for taking down this organised crime group who stole millions.
In 2022/23 we stopped £18 billion of taxpayers’ cash going into the wrong hands.
We are clamping down on fraud and putting fairness at the heart of our welfare system.
Today we’re uprating the State Pension by 8.5 per cent meaning pensioners will be £900 better off.
This comes on top of last year’s 10.1 per cent increase and our commitment to the Triple Lock.
Only the Conservatives are on the side of British pensioners.
🚨Labour have finally admitted they would scrap our childcare plans.
This would cause huge uncertainty for working parents who are set to save £6,900 a year.
But yet again, they’ve refused to say what their plan is.
Only the Conservatives have a plan to back working parents.
Canvassing in Crediton today with positive feedback for the Conservatives plan to grow the economy and improve local communities 🌳
I agree with the PM.
Inflation coming down means we're on the right track.
The Conservatives plan has slashed inflation, cut taxes, and provided unprecedented cost of living support.
Our plan is working.
