People in Plymouth will miss this guy - mark my words. In the maelstrom of deception that is public life, he is a thoroughly decent man who was right about Truss and today shown to be entirely right about Labour. Thank you for your service to the Nation Rishi Sunak 🇬🇧

Uncertain times demand a clear plan. That's what @RishiSunak delivers.

These uncertain times call for a clear plan and bold action to chart a course to a secure future. You must choose in this election who has that plan and who is prepared to take that bold action to secure a better future for our country and our children.

Why does our foreign policy matter to you? Here's my answer.

Wishing my great friend @LewisOrmston the best of luck for May’s upcoming election - he’ll be a really strong voice for local people and get things done 💪🏻

The Prime Minister has asked me to serve as his Foreign Secretary and I have gladly accepted. We are facing a daunting set of international challenges, including the war in Ukraine and the crisis in the Middle East. At this time of profound global change, it has rarely been more important for this country to stand by our allies, strengthen our partnerships and make sure our voice is heard. While I have been out of front-line politics for the last seven years, I hope that my experience – as Conservative Leader for eleven years and Prime Minister for six – will assist me in helping the Prime Minister to meet these vital challenges. Britain is a truly international country. Our people live all over the world and our businesses trade in every corner of the globe. Working to help ensure stability and security on the global stage is both essential and squarely in our national interest. International security is vital for our domestic security. Though I may have disagreed with some individual decisions, it is clear to me that Rishi Sunak is a strong and capable Prime Minister, who is showing exemplary leadership at a difficult time. I want to help him to deliver the security and prosperity our country needs and be part of the strongest possible team that serves the United Kingdom and that can be presented to the country when the General Election is held. I believe in public service. That is what first motivated me to get involved in politics in the 1980s, to work in government in the 1990s, become a Member of Parliament in the 2000s and put myself forward as Party Leader and Prime Minister. The UK’s Foreign Office, our Diplomatic Service, our Intelligence Services and our Aid and Development capabilities are some of the finest assets of their kind anywhere in the world. I know from my time in office that they are staffed by brilliant, patriotic and hard-working people. They have been well led by James Cleverly, with whom I look forward to working in his vital new role. It will be an honour to serve our country alongside our dedicated FCDO staff and provide the continued leadership and support that they deserve.

Our political system has for too long been focused on the short term. If you want to change that, stand with me.

@LewisOrmston V proud of our campaign - roll on next election!

Fantastic to see Gateshead being awarded £20m from the Levelling Up Fund to secure the completion of The Sage. The development will attract nearly 800,000 visitors a year and will create more than 1,150 new jobs, helping to grow our local economy. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Really great to be back out chatting to residents in Winlaton & High Spen this weekend! Lots of important conversations happening on the doorsteps about the things that really matter. Thankfully the weather was on our side - only it was a bit warmer! ❄️

The Prime Minister has set out our five pledges to deliver on the people’s priorities: 📉 Halve inflation this year 📈 Grow the economy 🤝 Reduce debt 🏥 Cut NHS waiting lists 🛑 Stop small boat migration Watch his speech in full👇 facebook.com/rishisunak/vid…

The United Kingdom is a great country but we face a profound economic crisis. That’s why I am standing to be Leader of the Conservative Party and your next Prime Minister. I want to fix our economy, unite our Party and deliver for our country.
