The Polls have just opened for today's Police & Crime Commissioner elections. You have until 10pm to vote for Alison Hernandez who has delivered a record number of police officers, plus safer streets schemes for #Paignton & #Torquay . Don't forget to take your Photo ID.

A good summary of the confusion and contradiction in Labour's immigration policy. 👇

Welcome news and looking forward to catching up with Torquay United Supporters Trust about the latest developments #TorbayHour #BoostTorbay

I raised the work of Open Doors UK in UK House of Commons & queried what impact their analysis of the persecution Christians face in China is having on the points raised by Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office when engaging with its Govt. Good to have Nus Ghani MP reply, who China has also tried to silence.

Was pleased to lead this debate on how we can and must quickly ratify the #GlobalOceanTreaty

Pleased to hear common sense has prevailed and Torbay Council Councillors on the Planning Committee voted unanimously to approve the Riviera Wheel #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

I’m determined to make our benefit system fit for the future and fair to the taxpayer, transforming lives and unlocking potential.

Lets hope they back the Riviera Wheel. #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

Today I’m launching a new consultation to make our disability benefit system fit for the future.

I want to see how we can:

• Remove unnecessary benefit assessments wherever possible
• Provide extra support to those most in need
• Deliver better value for the taxpayer

No surprise I have not replied as I am the MP for Torbay, not the candidate in Yorkshire.

A new shop, Regina Rowe, opened in Union St #Torquay today, a place we are (sadly) more often talking about closures. I popped in to ask the team there what encouraged them to invest in our Town Centre. #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

This is a good piece of context. I used to be allowed a tiny glass of my Dad's home brew on Christmas Day (only) when aged 11 or 12, so would have counted to this statistic.

Send your MP a flower today and urge them to attend Kevin Foster's Westminster Hall debate on Ratification of the Ocean Treaty. Vital that the UK steps up to ratify this now. Oceana UK Blue Marine Foundation Sea Watch Foundation Zoë Garbett

A great news project to not only help support our local health services, but regenerate #Torquay Town Centre #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

After 12 years the Riviera Wheel is an established part of summer in our bay. Councillors should reject the officers' view and vote to keep it. #TorbayHour #BoostTorbay

In UK House of Commons today I again pressed for confirmation of when victims of the Contaminated Blood Scandal will be able to apply to the compensation scheme which has been recommended. #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

Given the increased threats our country is facing, this is a very welcome announcement. #BoostTorbay #TorbayHour

Happy St George's Day!

A day to celebrate and take pride in our nation.

There is no Govt majority in the House of Lords, despite the claim here.
