One thing that is often lost in the discussion around the Budget is where the money, for Labour's billions of pounds of spending increases, comes from. I made the point in the House recently: there's no such thing as Government money. It is taxpayer money.

Labour is now spending more on welfare than it is raising in Income Tax. In the 2025/26 financial year, the Treasury raised £331 billion in Income Tax. In the same year, the Government spent £333bn on welfare. As I and many others have pointed out, this is unsustainable. A 🧵

Today I called on the Government to publish how many migrants are being moved out of hotels and into HMOs in local communities, like ours. Ministers boast that hotel numbers are falling, but they refuse to say *where* people are actually being moved to. 1/2

Labour has long argued that its decision to restrict jury trials was all about reducing the backlog. But last week we found out the Minister planned to do it REGARDLESS of the backlog. Proving this is about ideology, not practicality. 1/2

The Health Service Journal recently reported a large spike in people being struck off the waiting lists. 350,000 people. That's the equivalent of a city the size of Coventry. Today, I asked the Minister why. Here's her response 👇 1/2

This is what I have been raising concerns over...and he is right! Advice & Guidance is a good thing, when it is exactly that...Advice & Guidance. Mandating referrals to a Single Point of Access with an aim to bounce 1 in 4 referrals back to a GP is not a good thing!

The Government was asked a simple question by Dr Caroline Johnson MP - could the Government show evidence for mandating a Single Point of Access for GP referrals to be reviewed. The answer: "We trust GPs" 🤔 So why is Labour bringing in a system that literally overrides GP judgement?

Labour has increased taxes on hospices, cafes, pubs, family farms, GPs, care homes, and many, many more. Not one of these tax rises was in their manifesto last year. #PMQs

This Labour Government decided to tax education by charging VAT on schools for the first time. It was implemented in January 2025 - halfway through the school year - so if a child had to move school, it was in the middle of their education.

Wes Streeting is changing the GP referral system from VOLUNTARY Advice & Guidance service to MANDATORY Single Point of Access for routine referrals, but what does this mean in reality? ▶️ A&G is support TO HELP your GP decide ▶️ Single point of access DECIDES FOR your GP 👇

🚨 The Labour Government is fundamentally changing the way that patients access a specialist. The Government says it’s reforming referrals. In reality, it's restricting access to specialist care for up to 1 in 4 patients. This isn’t NHS reform. It’s rationing by another name.

As we debate the Courts Bill again today and the restriction of jury trials...a gentle reminder of this bombshell from the Minister on our last debate... The Minister admitted it wasn't about backlogs - but ideology. Listen 👇

Today I raised concerns from GPs, hospices & care homes who haven't received a clear answer on whether they're exempt - as other public sectors are - from the increase in employer NICs.
