Thread 🧡 on the Labour reduction in #WinterFuelPayments.

I was the Minister in charge of this policy at DWP from 2017-2022. Labour are making a big mistake 1/

Thank you πŸ™
to the Northumberland community of #Hexham for the opportunity you gave me.

Serving in the @HouseofCommons as the Hexham MP for 14 years has been the honour of my life. 1/

Leaving the DWP.

Have done nearly 8 years as Whip, Pensions Minister and Employment Minister under 4 PMs. A real honour to have served.

Moving to another department, but just finished packing up and thanking my wonderful private office team.
#Onwards πŸ‘

I voted to accept the Privileges Committee Report this evening.

I have read the report in full. It is not acceptable to mislead the House of Commons, whoever the person, whatever the surrounding circumstances. The @HouseofCommons is more important than all of us.

A very moving day.

The headstone and the new bench overlooking the twins grave all in place.

We spent some time chatting to the boys πŸ‘
#neverforgetbutonwards

Delighted to be appointed by HM The King as Minister of State at DWP in the PM’s new Government @RishiSunak

Lots of work to do and I look forward to working with the new Secretary of State @MelJStride

I remain of the view that @RishiSunak is the right person to be our Prime Minister.
He is a serious person for serious times.

He was right about the economy during the summer: we need his leadership to get us back on track.

How it How it
started Finished

6 fringes, multiple speeches, meetings and more … with a small one! Thank you #Birmingham #CPC22 #onwards

How it How it’s

No longer a Minister. It is CBB for me ⬇️:

Welcoming Christopher Coleman Opperman, who has been called Kitto for many months, to this wonderful world.

Know that you will always be loved little man.

Found!!!
Reunited with #Zola thanks to chipping, and Alex who picked her up late last night.
Thank you to everyone who helped particularly @silvesterldn
#DogsOnTwitter

Proud to be part of @Conservatives Party with

- 2 female PM βœ…
- 1st Jewish PM βœ…
- 3 Asian Chancellors in a row βœ…βœ…βœ…
- Asian Home Sec βœ…
- 1st trans MP
And on it goes.
But sadly @HouseofCommons friends like Saj, Rishi, Priti, Nadhim will face this idiocy a lot ⬇️ I fear.

It has been a honour, and a great responsibility, to serve as a minister, but we need leadership change, and I have resigned. I will continue to work for my constituents in Hexham from the backbenches.
My letter to the PM.

Took the adored surrogate child (ZolaπŸ•) to visit our 2 sadly departed boys, on Fathers Day.
Looking onwards, and seeking blessings on every sunny day, but never forgetting.

I believe Government should be focusing on the issues affecting our economy, the cost of living, and the necessity of ending the war in Ukraine.
I do not believe the many months associated with leadership change helps that; I do not support colleagues undermining the PM 1/

Big @Conservatives win in #Northumberland County Council by election in #Seghill tonight: a positive swing to us, in a crucial former Labour ward βœ…

CON: 55.5% (+1.1)
LAB: 40.5% (-5.0)
GRN: 2.3% (+2.3)
LDM: 1.7% (+1.7)

Well done Eve, Barry, Caitlin, and all the team πŸ™πŸ‘

11 years!
Both of us tumour freeπŸ’ͺ

With @PaulBlomfieldMP, my Labour colleague and friend @HouseofCommons ahead of #WearAHatDay tomorrow πŸŽ©πŸ§’β›‘πŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ

We were the lucky ones, our lives saved by great NHS surgeons. Get involved tomorrow to support brain tumour research & awareness

An honour to be allowed to speak in memory of my @HouseofCommons colleague, and friend #JackDromey - a great Union and Labour campaigner, but also the best example of cross-party working I know #RIP 1/

Simply not trueπŸ‘‡πŸΌ
I have worked in 4 govt departments (unlike Hannan)
Yes, the civil service can improve, but this is political clickbait and needs to be challenged.

If you want a better and more driven civil service get better ministers, a clearer plan and a laser like focus.

Wanted to put in words how bereft I am at the loss of my Labour MP colleague and friend #JackDromey … and explain how he exemplified cross party working in @HouseofCommons 1/

It’s called democracy, you idiot.
Like many I campaigned for remain, but we accept democratic decisions of the British people and make them work 1/

I have lost 2 @HouseofCommons colleagues, murdered by extremists in the last 6 years. ThisπŸ‘‡πŸΌdoes not help.
My thanks to the police up and down the country who are now having to protect all MPs more because of idiots like this.

I am an MP

I had surgeries today in Hexham with constituents,
Knocked doors in Allendale, and went to my local pub

I will do all this next week +hold the @TyneJobsFair on Friday

I mourn #SirDavidAmess ... but for all my @HouseofCommons colleagues, we keep going πŸ‘ #Democracy

Thinking of our 2 boys taken too soon, and resting together quietly in an English churchyard. We think of you always.

Adding a candle on this Remembrance Day
#WaveOfLight2021
#BabyLossAwarenessWeek

Have struggled all day with the loss of @JBrokenshire

His death, at only 53, is senseless

Please, seize the day
Hug the one you love
Be all that you can be
This is not a rehearsal

Reappointed as the #Pensions and #FinancialInclusion Minister @DWP πŸ‘

Very pleased ...
And a short pensions threadπŸ‘‡πŸΌ1/

Worth five minutes, a coffee and a good read πŸ‘‡πŸΌ ... @afneil sets out why the SNP / Green Party deal is, and will be, a disaster on many many levels for Scotland, my constituents in Northumberland working both sides of the border and the rest of the UK πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§

I have missed @afneil - the BBC were mad to let him go.
A great intro, genuinely worth 5 minutes if your time, whatever your views. And as an MP I can assure you that all MPs in @HouseofCommons know he is the best interviewer: πŸ‘‡πŸΌπŸ‘

Utterly misleading / unfair tweet and criticism πŸ‘‡πŸΌ

The Home Sec @pritipatel was attending the arrest of a suspected leader of a people smuggling gang.

I prosecuted these people pre 2010 - they are proper villains. As an ancestor of recent migrants I fully support her action 1/

Another GAIN!!
The leader of the Labour group in Northumberland has lost her seat of
Hartley - by 1 vote to @Conservatives

She had a massive majority in 2017

This is a trend
