Rishi Sunak loves to use the phrase 'record' where it's a con (eg 'record' nos of GPs or new homes) But this is real record achievement: 💥LOWEST @IpsosUK TORY VOTING INTENTION (19%, worst in 45 yrs' surveys) 💥JOINT LOWEST EVER PM RATINGS (-59%, worse than Truss, bad as Major)
Grant Shapps, whose party has spent weeks suggesting Angela Rayner is a tax-dodging criminal, now says we shouldn't rush to judgement about suspended Conservative MP Mark Menzies "Just because an accusation is made, or something is written, doesn't mean it is necessarily proven"
NEW: ministers have admitted that defence spending will not reach 2.5% until after the election - by me in @theipaper inews.co.uk/news/politics/…
Sending my best wishes and congratulations to Witham's most famous resident @ollymurs and his wife on the joyous birth of their baby daughter. I am sure she won't be a 'troublemaker' like her dad!
.@RishiSunak again insists National Insurance + income tax amount to 'double taxation'. But asked 3 times by @Keir_Starmer, refuses to deny he would fund abolition of NI via cuts to NHS, state pension or a tax rise. Surprised the PM didn't shut that down with clear denial.
Yet another potential story has come across my desk this morning which makes me furious that it's not possible to issue housing associations with a Freedom of Information Act request. They take huge amounts of taxpayers' money in development funding. We should be able to ask Qs.
@paulwaugh @JustinOnWeb Justin got an update that it will apply to NI.
.@KemiBadenoch has observed collective cabinet responsibility while setting out clearly just what kind of Tory leader she will be. Many party members will be impressed. But if Boris Johnson enthusiastically and publicly backs @pritipatel for leader, cd be v interesting.

.@JustinOnWeb asks re smoking ban bill: Will it or will it not apply in NIreland? Chief Secretary Laura Trott: "I don't know the answer to that question, actually". JW: "It does suggest you haven't entirely thought this through." Trott: a health minister wd be able to answer
Four more @UKHouseofLords defeats for the government tonight on #RwandaBill, by margins of 17 to 57 votes. This speech by Lord Hope, ex-Deputy President of @UKSupremeCourt, well expresses the idiocy of what we are being asked to do hansard.parliament.uk/Lords/2024-04-…. /1
383 for, 67 votes against smoking ban bill. Full division list will reveal just how many votes against were Tory
I suspect this could become as much of a meme as "That.. is..a..DISGRACE" Upside-down, back-to-front, it all makes as much sense.

.@wesstreeting certainly enjoying the Tory divisions caused by this smoking/vapes bill. Says PM 'too weak' to take on his own party and argue for the bill. Knows that the more he ridicules them, and supports the bill, the bigger the Tory rebellion - and more chaos for Sunak.
Looks like Liz Truss is set to speak in the Commons - for the first time this year. She's one of just 22 MPs who have not spoken in the chamber in 2024. (Truss looks lined up to oppose the smoking/vapes bill)
Tory MP Mark Francois points out that next year the Govt plans to retire 30 RAF Typhoons (out of total of 137) and sell them off cos of "budget pressures" Says that's "akin to selling Spitfires before the Battle of Britain" Sunak: individ decisions upto service chiefs + ministers

Just come across Liz Truss saying “I hadn’t gone into politics to deal with floods or fix prisons.” Why not? Wouldn’t politics be much better if she felt her job was to fix such things? This is a fundamental problem with our system @RestIsPolitics unherd.com/2024/04/why-li…
This reminds me of @JonnElledge's theory that playing to certain "friendly" media outlets has been very damaging for the Tories because it has made them feel that they are much more closer to the "general public" than they actually are and shielded them from their unpopularity...
— @JLPartnersPolls shows that in the last 5 years, the “crossover age” where voters become more likely to back the Tories has risen by an astonishing 31 years — over-70s is now the only age group more likely to vote Tory — Tories reliant on pensioners bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Advice for scholars: next time you lecture on Kant and revolutions at “Downing” (@DarwinCollege) Cambridge, make sure your hair is neatly tied and that you’re not blonde. Or else your research impact will be on the @spectator libido section.
The Spectator’s theatre critic has written a piece about how a female professional peer’s appearance made him so horny that he had to go pay for sex with a “buxom” Chinese woman near the train station.

There is a persistent pattern of CCHQ/government investigations burying very serious issues (including credible allegations of criminality) until they act rapidly, after exposure in the media, months after knowing the content
Break... A spokesperson for Chief Whip Simon Hart said: “Following a call with the Chief Whip, Mark Menzies has agreed to relinquish the Conservative whip, pending the outcome of an investigation.”
Everyone’s dunking on this, but it’s admirably honest that the alternative to building more is no one having a guest bedroom, a home office, or space for kids they haven’t had yet. And that permanent flat sharing into middle age will be the norm. Refreshingly straightforward!
💥New! The cross-party consensus that the way to tackle the housing crisis is to build more homes isn’t working. Instead, we should be pursuing innovative policies that make efficient use of the existing housing stock. blogs.lse.ac.uk/politicsandpol…
There's a lot going on in the Times story about Mark Menzies. One of the less eyecatching but more systemic issues is the existence of these locally-held slush funds, which seem to defeat the point of regulating political finance as well as being a standing temptation for misuse.
Sending my best wishes and congratulations to Witham's most famous resident @ollymurs and his wife on the joyous birth of their baby daughter. I am sure she won't be a 'troublemaker' like her dad!
.@EmmanuelMacron & his Govt are in real trouble. Le Pen’s party now leads his centrist alliance by *13 points* in polls ahead of European elections, not 10 points. A defeat of that magnitude on June 9 will lead to a volley of confidence votes in the National Assembly in June/July
