The Chelmsford work experience students particularly enjoyed seeing all the democracy in action outside Committee Room 14.
Thank you @trussliz for taking a moment to say hello on her way to vote.
Today in Westminster I have been joined by a group of Chelmsford students for work experience. They have been learning about how the @HouseofCommons works and the many things that happen in Parliament.

Great joint @DWP and @FCDOGovUK meeting today with 12 large UK based Pensions Funds, who have come together to drive forward long term investment (with sustainable returns) in the climate transition in emerging markets around the world 🌍 1/
#LuxembourgPride saw Ambassador @FleurThomasFCDO 🇬🇧 rally her fellow ambassadors to Luxembourg 🇱🇺 on the #DiplomatsForEqualities float. @RealCultureClub joined the/our ambassador in the 🇬🇧 Residence to talk LGBT+ rights, diversity and inclusion. #GREATLove knows no borders 🏳️🌈
In other news I am greatly enjoying my bar of chocolate from Côte d’Ivoire which has the added benefit that - like much African chocolate - it doesn’t melt in a #heatwave. 🍫
Listen to @trussliz about her plans for the economy. 👇
RT @trussliz: Our society is built on strong family values. Government should not penalise those who take time off work to care for their loved ones.
As PM, I will ensure a tax system which delivers for families, and build a stronger society for all.
RT @trussliz: We need to be bold.
We need to do things differently.
We need to cut taxes.
We need to unleash growth.
We need to unleash the potential of all of the people across our great country.
RT @trussliz: It’s only by walking the walk - not talking the talk - that we really restore trust.
This👇 need to deliver on promises.
#Liz4Leader #C4LeaderDebate
RT @DehennaDavison: Here at the #C4LeaderDebate. @trussliz is absolutely spot on in her first answer. Throughout her political career she has proven that she keeps her promises and can be trusted to deliver.
RT @CEN_HQ: We're delighted to announce that @trussliz has signed our Conservative environment pledge! 🔵🌳
This is awful news - more children’s lives taken by Russian missiles.
RT @FCDOGovUK: Russia's missile attack on Vinnytsia in Central Ukraine has killed at least 20 people, including children. It's the latest abhorrent display of its disregard for civilian lives.
The UK is doing what it can to assist Ukraine in investigating war crimes as these assaults continue.
Very moved to be in @HouseofCommons today to hear the Neonatal Care bill which will make sure that parents can take time to be with their baby during those difficult times in NICU. So many families wil be helped. Thank you @Blisscharity @LukeHall
