We’re working to get 800 new ambulances on the road & create 5,000 extra permanent hospital beds to free up hospital capacity and cut waiting times. Yesterday I saw the innovative London Ambulance Service system control centre in action which helps patients get care as fast as possible ⤵️

The Health Sec described the 35% pay demand from the Junior Doctors’ Committee as reasonable, at a cost of an additional £3bn each year. He must come clean about if he will ask the Chancellor to raise taxes, or if she will be asking him to cut frontline services to pay for it.

After 14 months of relentless campaigning, Labour has been forced into a partial u-turn on the Family Farm Tax. Throughout this difficult time, the Conservatives have consistently led the fight in parliament and stood shoulder-to-shoulder with protesting farmers AGAINST the tax. Rural communities should never have been put through such levels of distress, pain and panic.

Labour’s choices will scar our landscapes and nature forever. Ed Miliband’s unrealistic net zero targets will industrialise our undeveloped countryside with pylons, enormous substations, solar panel estates and wind turbines. They will destroy people’s homes, our cherished landscapes and nature, as well as prime agricultural land. In Louth & Horncastle, we understand all too well the damage this will bring to communities and our landscape. The Conservatives and I will continue to stand up for our countryside, defending local voices and protecting the character of the landscapes which feed and encapsulate Great Britain.

CropLife warns that Labour’s UK-EU reset is a cliff-edge for British farming. With the deal expected to drain £810 million from UK farms, consumers will face higher food prices as domestic production plummets, all the while sinking the UK fishing industry. As Keir Starmer’s authority seeps away, he is clutching at straws for any shred of a political ‘win’ – but a deal that sacrifices British farmers, fishermen and food producers is no win for Britain.

After 14 months of pain faced by farmers and family business owners, Conservatives sought a simple apology from the Labour minister over their Family Farm Tax fiasco. Labour don’t have the grace to say sorry. And for many, the partial u-turn is too late with record farm closures and lives tragically lost.

Today, I expressed the seriousness of this food and farming emergency in Parliament with some truly harrowing stories of the devastating impacts of the Family Farm and Family Business Taxes. Why does the current Secretary of State Emma Reynolds for Wycombe 🌹 support this?

If you are from a Labour constituency, please contact your MP urgently with your concerns and encourage them to vote against it. The Conservatives will vote to AXE the Family Farm and Family Business Taxes.

With record numbers of farms closing under Labour, President Trump has explained why the Family Farm Tax is a bad tax - it breaks farms and comes at a terrible human cost. Starmer has refused to listen to UK farmers or admit the human cost. Let’s hope he will listen to President Donald J. Trump.

.Conservatives have campaigned for the last year to AXE Labour’s Family Farm and Family Business Taxes. Last night, 1 Labour MP voted to AXE these taxes. He has now been suspended from Labour. The Conservatives know what’s right: we will AXE these taxes when back in government.

5 urgent measures to save British farming and food production. 🌱 Reasonable, deliverable and can be executed at speed. 👇 1️⃣Stop the changes to APR and BPR announced in the Autumn Budget. 2️⃣Open your promised new SFI scheme for applications urgently. 3️⃣Immediate rollover of the Fruit and Vegetable Aid Scheme for another year. 4️⃣Ensure support for adequate forage for this winter. 5️⃣Rapidly review the impact of the Extended Producer Responsibility on the food, drink and hospitality sectors. We’re putting party politics to one side in the national interest. We hope the Government will too and implement these emergency measures.
