The NI Protocol is undermining the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. The EU are unwilling to change the Protocol, therefore we must act.

I am delighted that @nadhimzahawi has announced today what is significant support for music in schools. If we could all join forces to get music back into our schools again, it will be something that will only enrich our nation. - ALW

As many people know, I moved to this country aged 11, unable to speak a word of English.
Some of my first school experiences involved being called a ‘p*ki’ and even having my head dunked in a pond by bigger kids as entertainment.
It’s time to talk about bullying.

The strikes today are wrong and unnecessary.
Delighted to announce we're tripling the number of Chevening scholarships for Ukrainian students this year!
Up to 68 of the brightest young people from Ukraine will undertake Masters' degrees at top 🇬🇧universities, gaining expertise to lead better future for Ukraine 🇺🇦.
Born in Afghanistan & raised in former Soviet Union (modern-day Ukraine), I have lived through war & extreme poverty. It wasn't until I arrived in the UK that I found myself thriving in an open & tolerant society, receiving countless opportunities I would never have had otherwise
A series of bad calls, and backing the strikers over the strivers this week shows that Starmer is definitely not on your side.

Mr President, Volodymyr,
It is good to be in Kyiv again.
Please retweet, pavements are a lot hotter than the air temperature🔥⚠️
Hold the back of you hand on the concrete or asphalt for 7 seconds, better still only walk your dog before 8am and after 8pm.

Good to be in Scotland today visiting @SLCComms
Together, we are designing and delivering a radical new student loan system to help people upskill, retrain and reskill throughout their lifetime.
GAS DEAL🇬🇧🇳🇴
Britain’s Centrica has signed a major deal with Norway’s Equinor, boosting UK supply for the next 3 winters.
With ongoing uncertainty in Europe, securing extra supply is welcome as we maximise gas production in British waters and accelerate nuclear and renewables.
The Remainer cultural elites cling to a European ideal that exists only for a privileged few. One of care-free travel and cheap studios in bohemian neighbourhoods. All the austerity and anti-democracy has apparently passed them by, writes @jjcharlesworth_

Please retweet, this poor dog was found abandoned this week after having puppies, suffering from severe neglect and starving.
She and her daughter were stolen a year ago.
They have been bred and dumped.
Don't buy puppies or kittens online - RESCUE, ADOPT, FOSTER ✅

What a way to celebrate our graduation from the Behaviour Hub
as we welcomed @WalkerWorcester @RebeccaHarrisMP @EdDevTrust to see the progress we have made as part of the programme. It was an honour to be selected and showcase our amazing school and students.
I had the pleasure of heading down to @CorVermuyden to see the benefits of working with one of our behaviour hubs. They are one of the first schools to graduate from the programme and it was fantastic to see the impact it’s had and the hard work of their staff & SLT paying off
Cross-examination in a live trial can reawaken trauma for rape victims – that’s why we’re extending special measures to allow them to pre-record their evidence.

@RebeccaHarrisMP @BorisJohnson @CPCA01268792992 I am so angry about tonight's vote. How dare they get to decide if the PM that I voted for gets to keep his job. That decision should only be down to those who put him there. If they vote him out thats me and Tories finished.
78 years ago today, a Canadian solider named Lt. James Doohan led a company of Canadian infantrymen ashore on D-Day.
He led them through enemy landmines, survived being shot six times, and went on to become a pilot.
He later became Scottie on Star Trek.
I want NHS patients to be the first to access the most promising treatments.
The launch of the Innovative Medicines Fund delivers another manifesto commitment and will fast track cutting-edge medicines to give patients hope for a better future.

He’s got it right on vaccines, on getting us out of lockdowns and on supporting the Ukraine. No one is infallible but I will support the PM as he has supported me and my constituency when needed. 2/2

A small taste of the weakness we could expect under Labour. The travelling public deserve better (this strike comes after TFL workers received an 8.4% pay rise). https://twitter.com/kateferguson4/status/1533726883472367616
Sir Keir Starmer refuses to say if he supports or opposes todays tube strike.
Just says he doesn’t like strikes or want them 🚂 #LBC
One of the questions I get asked most as Education Secretary is “What does ‘TL’ stand for?” 🤔💭
It stands for T Levels, and as Education Secretary, I will make them as famous as A levels.

Queen 🤝 The Queen
Tonight’s #PlatinumJubilee Party at the Palace was a fitting and fabulous tribute to Her Majesty.
Well done to everyone involved!
In the 100 days since Putin’s barbaric invasion, Ukrainians have fought back with supreme courage and dignity.
Our support for Ukraine will never waver until Ukrainians enjoy the peace and freedom that their heroism deserves.

My constituents, including Labour ex-MPs, are obviously entitled to their own views, in their desperate thirst for attention https://twitter.com/LauraPidcock/status/1529802645258522625
I just feel like there is a real grossness to the state driven Jubilee celebration fanfare. People are skint, getting so much more skint & full of worry & we are supposed to go out & celebrate 70 years of unadulterated, unaccountable wealth, privilege, power & exploitation? Nah.
The Attorney General hosted a visit of the Ukrainian Prosecutor General @VenediktovaIV last week to continue discussions between the UK and Ukraine to help ensure Russia is held to account for its actions.

That’s higher than countries like France, Germany, and Italy.

Rishi Sunak MP announces households who receive the winter fuel payment will get an extra one-off pensioner payment of £300 and there will also be a one-off disability payment of £150.
Sunak continues saying many of these people will also receive £650.

Global factors, like Russia’s illegal war in Ukraine, are causing energy prices to spike.
Chancellor @RishiSunak explains how the measures we introduced today will support families with these rising costs.
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/millions-of-most-vulnerable-households-will-receive-1200-of-help-with-cost-of-living
Alongside the action we’ve already taken this year today's measures will ensure:
The vast majority of households receive £550.
Pensioners receive £850.
And almost all of the eight million most vulnerable households will receive support of at least £1,200.

Spiking is a sick, predatory act that needs stamping out. I am the first education minister to launch a working group to tackle this issue by bringing together the police, victims, vice-chancellors and campaigners in the first ever group of this kind.
