We will toughen up sentencing for terrorists – increasing the minimum sentence for serious offenders and ending early release completely #BBCDebate

All my thoughts are with those affected by the terrible incident in Birmingham last night.
My thanks to the emergency services who are working hard at the scene. Anyone with information should contact @WMPolice

Good to meet with leaders from the oil and gas industry today – which has an important part in producing the energy we need to move away from Russian hydrocarbons and transition to a more stable, sustainable and cleaner energy future. 1/2

The people of Afghanistan deserve to live in peace and security. It is my fervent hope that today’s peace talks lead to a more stable and prosperous future and I urge the parties to negotiate in good faith.
1233
The UK and Australia are the closest of friends and historic allies.
Tonight Prime Minister @ScottMorrisonMP and I agreed to strengthen the partnership between our nations, making it fit for the next century and grounded in our shared priorities on security, democracy and trade.

I am deeply moved by the surge of support the British people have provided to the people of India and am pleased the UK Government has been able to play our part in providing life-saving assistance.
The UK will always be there for India in its time of need. twitter.com/10DowningStree…

I congratulated Korean President-elect Yoon Suk-yeol this morning on his successful election. Together we'll deepen cooperation between our countries.
We agreed that Russia's bombardment of Ukraine is a threat to the values of our countries and an attack on freedom & democracy.

This Easter weekend, please remember that outdoors is generally much safer than indoors.
If you’re in England and seeing friends and family outside, keep to groups of up to six people or two households.
Let’s keep each other safe as we continue with the vaccination rollout.

I spoke to President Zelenskyy @ZelenskyyUa this evening regarding our concerns about destabilising Russian military activity on Ukraine’s border.
I reiterated the UK’s unwavering support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
1239
We’re having this election because Parliament couldn’t get anything done. A majority Conservative government will get Brexit done and take back control of our borders, so that dangerous criminals can no longer exploit free movement.

It was the highlight of my day to virtually drop in on the Year 6 class of St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School, Upminster.
I’m in awe of the way teachers, parents, guardians and carers have risen to the unique challenges of the pandemic. I quite simply cannot thank you enough.

I am deeply saddened to learn of the death of Lord Trimble earlier today. He was a giant of British and international politics and will be long remembered for his intellect, personal bravery and fierce determination to change politics for the better.

Fantastic initiative from the BBC, who will be helping children to learn while we all must stay at home. twitter.com/bbcpress/statu…

2/3: So let me say directly also to British business, to the shopkeepers, to the entrepreneurs, to the hospitality sector, to everyone on whom our economy depends: I understand your impatience, I share your anxiety.
1244
If and when the @pfizer & @BioNTech_Group vaccine is approved, we will be ready to start using it.
But the biggest mistake we could make now would be to slacken our resolve at such a critical moment.
We must continue to work together to protect our NHS and save lives.
1245
It’s a very big day at the polls today. I hope everybody will go out and vote.
Vote for the @Conservatives today.
1246
My thoughts are with the victims, families and friends of all those affected by the cowardly attack on Manchester Arena five years ago today.
The bravery and defiance shown so courageously by Mancunians in the days that followed shows hatred will never win.
1247
Wonderful to meet so many today in Ruislip - thank you to those who stopped to say hello. I hope you’ll be voting Conservative on December 12th.
1248
I spoke with Prime Minister @kishida230 this morning and we both agreed that the international community needed to stand united against an invasion of an independent country – which would carry severe consequences.
Both the UK and Japan will not tolerate Russia’s aggression.
1249
We are in a race to vaccinate the vulnerable faster than the virus can reach them.
And we need to give our army of vaccinators the biggest head start we possibly can.
That is why we must once again stay at home, protect the NHS and save lives.

We've reached a significant milestone with 1 in 5 adults now having had two COVID-19 vaccine doses. This is a huge UK-wide effort that has already saved thousands of lives.
Thank you to everyone involved.
Former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Member of Parliament for Uxbridge and South Ruislip.
