Nicola Faye Richards is MP for West Bromwich East

Great to show @Nicola4WBE around @BCTG Skills Study Centre in West Bromwich today. Nicola got to meet level 2 plastering learners, and heard about how funding rates, level 2/3 qualification reform and English/maths policy are affecting the skills sector.

Great to visit @robinsonbro_ltd chemicals today in West Bromwich.

Thanks to Adrian Hanrahan and the team for the tour of the site.

Energy use, rising costs & carbon footprint were key questions.

Thank you @NatalieElphicke for your support. I am committed to reaching the full potential of Brexit, getting people on the housing ladder, and end the migrant crisis in the Channel. #PM4PM

My plan for Britain: Immediate 50% cut in VAT on fuel.

This message is to all my MP friends. Especially those in Red Wall or marginal seats. I know you all have an area, village or estate which you are nervous about canvassing as the residents are angry and 'turn on you' when things are difficult for our party.

YouGov: amongst Tory members👇

Sunak loses to Mordaunt by 14 points, even after the weekend she’s had.

Sunak loses to Truss by 19 points, despite his slick debate performances.

Sunak loses to Badenoch by 22 points, despite her never having held a cabinet post.

Former cabinet minister Damian Green backs Penny Mordaunt for leadership. He says: “I have thought long and hard about what to do in today’s leadership ballot and I will be voting for Penny Mordaunt. She offers a fresh start and a chance to unify the party.."

.@PennyMordaunt has set out detailed plans from housing to levelling up, from growth to tackling illegal immigration

She’d hit the ground running, that's why so many colleagues are supporting her positive campaign

Disappointing to see more blue on blue from anonymous allies https://twitter.com/TelePolitics/status/1549656834423885824

I am a low tax Conservative but as you have seen I have sought to retain the Party’s reputation for sound money, which could be lost easily, by not participating in an uncovered Dutch auction of tax cuts, which while sounding nice, are not credible.

#PM4PM

Today’s news of the latest increase in the annual rate of inflation to 9.4% justifies fully my economic measures of targeted tax cuts which are non-inflationary and help people through this cost of living crisis.

#PM4PM

This is reach! @PennyMordaunt is mentioned three times on @TheLastLeg (positively - not slagging of Tories...!) whilst also polling top with Daily Express readers! 📺 #PutPennyOnTheBallot #PM4PM

To keep a Conservative government, we need to beat keir starmer, so who is best placed to beat him?”

I will pledge to conduct a full review of UK - China policy, across all Government departments, with a view to a re-set in policy and a new Government strategy.

#PM4PM

@PennyMordaunt 2. She actively fought for Brexit in the referendum.

She was the bravest and clearest defender of Brexit in Cabinet, which is why I advised her to stay in and fight when I resigned to force a policy change.

Reminders as to why @PennyMordaunt will make the best Prime Minister:

1. She won a Labour seat and made it a strong Conservative constituency, so knows how to win and hold Labour seats.

She also fought off Liberal attacks on council, so knows how to fight them too.

This is an excellent and very welcome development /

Penny Mordaunt pledges to stand up to Chinese after blasting Boris – ‘soft on China’ https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1642996/penny-mordaunt-china-latest-news-aggression-hong-kong

We’re running another poll right now. Two hours in … @PennyMordaunt leads, @RishiSunak follows, @TrussLiz a distant third. All to play for.

We have been too soft on China. I won't be.

Only one candidate in this election has consistently:

🏆been 1st or 2nd

🏆led the polls as favourite amongst *swing voters*

🏆led the polls as favourite amongst *Conservative members*

🏆been No1 for MPs with marginal seats

It’s @PennyMordaunt #PM4PM👇

#PutPennyOnTheBallot

@PennyMordaunt would deliver the goods for our country and unite the @Conservatives let’s #PutPennyOnTheBallot

Its not just the UK/North Carolina trade deal that @PennyMordaunt has been working on. This week she also met with @GovStitt to discuss a UK trade agreement with Oklahoma https://twitter.com/PennyMordaunt/status/1547660564066840578

If elected, I would make addressing the cost of living crisis my top priority. Ask yourself this, will the next Prime Minister understand the life you live?
