Member of Parliament for Droitwich and Evesham. Shadow DCMS Secretary of State. Constituents please contact me at [email protected]

Today, Rachel Reeves announced Labour’s changes to planning and housing - and name-checked a proposed site at Worcestershire Parkway within my Droitwich and Evesham constituency. During the election campaign I expressed grave concerns about Labour's instincts to make top-down decisions that impact the countryside from offices in Whitehall. The local voice should not be ignored. While we all know we need more housing, it has to be in the right place, on the right scale and with appropriate supporting infrastructure. Let's also be clear we are talking about building on fields, not previously developed land or brownfield sites here, too. I shall be seeking further information and assurances from Labour ministers in the coming weeks and would welcome views from local residents who can contact me at nigel.huddleston.mp@parliament.uk

It doesn't matter who the Labour leader is, they'll still be Labour - with high taxes, big government, anti-business policies, damaging the country and causing unemployment.

There were dozens of credible alternatives for the role of Ambassador to the USA. Mandelson got the job because Keir Starmer wanted a party crony, not a career diplomat - and he made the announcement before vetting was completed. It raises big questions about the PMs judgement.

The top 1% of income tax payers pay 29% of all income tax, while 35% of adults pay no income tax at all. Yet this government's anti wealth creator policies are driving many top earners abroad, leaving a higher tax burden on the remaining workers to pay for our public services.

We should not under-estimate the immense damage that Labour's National Insurance tax hike is causing. Labour's jobs tax is inhibiting hiring and is an existential threat to some businesses already struggling from Labour's mismanagement of the economy.

A fundamental dividing line between the Conservatives and the left is on the issue of what the best route out of poverty is. We believe it's work not welfare. Bridget Phillipson and Labour disagree. So much so, that I got 'the hand' twice yesterday.

I have absolutely no confidence in Labour. No Matter who their leader is, they will still be Labour... advocating big government, high-tax, antii-business strategies.

Only the Conservatives under the leadership of Kemi Badenoch have a credible plan to be an alternative to this disastrous Labour government - based on sound Conservative principles of personal responsibility, low tax, small government, and living within your means. #BBCQT

I suggested to Bridget Phillipson that she's delaying guidance on single sex spaces because she is afraid of offending the left and Labour can't agree on what a woman is. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has already ruled that a woman means a biological woman. Here's her reaction!

Now confirmed that Labour are bringing in a tourism tax (after saying they had no plans to do so). Not satisfied with already causing 90,000 job losses in tourism and hospitality, Rachel Reeves has decided to pile yet more taxes onto an industry still reeling from tax rises in her last Budget. So much for not increasing taxes on working people!

Labour announced an £820m package to help get young people into jobs in the hospitality, construction and care sectors - but only after increasing taxes on these sectors, causing the very unemployment they're now spending more public money on trying to reverse! Utter economic illiteracy. 📈NI hikes cost hospitality alone £1bn last year. 👎Business rates are piling on more pain.

A year ago today, Labour came to power promising change. Well - we got it! ❌Unemployment up ❌Debt up ❌Taxes up ❌Inflation up ❌Small boat crossing up A Prime Minister with no authority. A government with no plan. U-turn after U-turn. Britain can't afford Labour.

If this tax scandal involved a Tory politician, Angela Rayner - one of the gobbiest politicians on the planet - would have been calling for their resignation.

It is astonishing to hear the Chancellor and Labour MPs telling businesses that they have cut business rates. No they haven't. Most businesses, including swathes of the retail, hospitality & leisure sectors will see significant increases next year. #polmids BBC Politics

Labour’s tax hikes are hammering hospitality. 📊 £318 million extra in business rates for small venues. 🍺 Average pub: • +15% next year – £1,400 more • £4,500 more in 2027/28 • £7,000 more in 2028/29 ➡️ £12,900 extra over three years 🏨 Average hotel: • £28,900 more next year • £65,000 more in 2027/28 • £111,000 more in 2028/29 ➡️ Over £200,000 extra in total And all of this just before Labour’s new tourism tax. Jobs, investment and local businesses are being put at risk. 👉 The Conservatives would scrap business rates for retail, hospitality and leisure.

Retail, hospitality & leisure sectors are on their knees because of Labour. 90,000 hospitality jobs alone have been lost since Labour's first Budget. This is the direct result of Labour’s choices: increasing National Insurance, hiking business rates, and adding regulation. Whereas Conservatives are committed to backing business - and we will eliminate business rates for most retail, hospitality and leisure premises.

This Labour government just doesn't get it. The difficult stuff is cutting taxes and restraining spending. The easy and lazy stuff is.... Spending other people's money. DUH!

Astonishing that today of all days, with the government imploding, a government minister comes to the House of Commons to give us all a lecture on 'standards in public life'. You could not make this up!

Reform are trying to be all things to all men... trying to be both right AND left. As I told Christopher Hope📝 , that is not a credible proposition. We Conservatives stand for: small government, low taxes, personal responsibility, and living within our means. Reform's £140 billion of tax and spending commitment at the last election wasn't credible - and isn't Conservative. If you share our values and our principles, #VoteConservative

Keir Starmer promised to freeze your council tax when he wanted your vote, and raised it as soon as he got into office. You can’t trust Labour on tax 👇

The polls are now open. The decision is yours. Conservative councils have a strong track record of delivering lower taxes and better services than other parties. So, don't just hope for a good Council, vote for one! #VoteConservative
