William Wragg is MP for Hazel Grove

I send my sincere condolences to Andrew Stunell’s friends and family during their time of grief. Lord Stunell served as Hazel Grove’s MP from 1997 until 2015. He was held in high regard locally for his extensive public service. May he rest in peace.

The awarding of a knighthood to someone who lied to the Prime Minister’s ethics advisor sets a dangerous precedent

Either the Speaker bowed to the mob or to Keir Starmer. He must go

Labour MPs, many of whom I can call friends, and who would cheer me to the rafters when I was being a thorn in the side of my own government, should reflect. How would they feel if the boot was on the other foot?

For the record, it was my intention to vote for the SNP motion on a ceasefire in Gaza. I respect all colleagues who hold different views to me about this serious issue. What mattered was the chance show to our constituents what we thought of the SNP motion. We were denied this.

Plain fact is that Mr Speaker acted in a partisan way to meet the needs of Kier Starmer in managing his party. He changed the rules of the game. That is not the action of an impartial referee. All other considerations are secondary in this matter.

The @HouseofCommons is a ‘citizens assembly’ I suppose. Perhaps it might be a reasonable place for such deliberations, rather than subcontracting out responsibility to unaccountable bodies.

Infamy, infamy. They’ve all got it in for me!

But Edna Everage was a proper Dame.

The only thing worse than a white elephant is half of one #HS2

For context, I’ve become increasingly concerned and depressed by the toxicity of the debate around immigration and asylum, which, I’m sorry to say, has been worsened by the Home Secretary.

Thank goodness our Nation has been blessed with such a fine Attorney General and Home Secretary. Carry On! 🇬🇧

Her question to @ipsaUK concerned whether a speeding ticket incurred during the course of parliamentary duties could be claimed on expenses. Rather embarrassed, the representatives from @ipsaUK said no.

My clearest recollection of our Home Secretary’s legal acumen came from day one as an MP. We had a presentation from @ipsaUK

This evening, having kept quiet for a while, I was struck by the lamentable hopelessness of the Home Secretary, remembering particularly her first week or so as a Member of Parliament

It is a privilege to be the Member of Parliament for Hazel Grove. I have made the decision not to stand at the next election. I shall continue to represent constituents to the best of my ability in the meantime and thank everyone for their wonderful support over the years.

I share my Honourable Friend’s concern about this important issue.

Thank you for all of your support recently. I’m looking forward to steadily getting back into the swing of things.

Look after yourselves 💚

There’s hope for us all at the gym 🌈 💪

My thoughts and prayers are with Her Majesty the Queen. May God bless and comfort her.

Banishing the black dog 👋🐶

The heat is on 🥵

As a vice chair of the 1922 committee overseeing the election of a new leader of the @Conservatives, I shall not declare who I am supporting. I wish all my colleagues well - it is a hugely brave thing to stand. Let us go forward together 🇬🇧

I am standing again to be a vice-chair of the 1922 Executive and hope colleagues will support me to continue in the role. The situation needs a new confidence vote in the PM, which can come by Tuesday next week. In the meantime he could do the right thing and resign.

A Constitutional Monarchy, not a Presidency. It is a shame to have to point out this principle.

If banning conversion therapy will stop the likes of me being subjected to mental cruelty in repressing my true self, why not so for someone who is trans? I can see no logic in excluding trans people from legislation banning conversion therapy. Let’s have some empathy.

Nus is very brave to speak out. I was truly appalled to learn of her experience. She shows such strength and integrity supporting others. I am proud to have her as my friend and colleague. We must change things for the better.

Bizarre thing is @NadineDorries is upstairs

Gosh, any prizes for guessing this one..? 🎩

Statesman like. Any prizes for guessing who?

I shall vote against additional restrictions, including mandatory vaccination and covid passports.

However, I entirely encourage people to book a covid vaccine booster.

Encouragement not coercion.

Ah, the haranguing you gave me in the tearoom the other day, it all makes sense now, you were rehearsing your lines for cabinet @NadineDorries. Well done 👏

Sir David Amess was a friend to all. I never heard him say a bad word about anyone. He was tremendous fun, could be relied upon to cheer us up and had the best stories going. A dedicated MP who cared deeply for others. What a loss. How we shall all miss him.

David Amess is the best of us. Sending him and his family all my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you to @sajidjavid for ruling out domestic covid vaccine passports. It was clear many ministers were rightly sceptical of them. The evidence for them was flimsy at best, not to mention an infringement of civil liberties. Glad voices of common sense have prevailed.
