In other news I have recently learnt that @RebeccaHarrisMP is the first ever woman to be Comptroller of the House of Commons.
I’m told that there has been 400 years of men in this role.
These are the government whips announcing their support for @trussliz this evening. 👇

RT @scullyp: This matches with what small businesses were telling me over the 2.5 years that I was minister for small businesses. I ran micro businesses before being elected. I know that rewarding risk and removing barriers is the best way to encourage growth #LizForLeader @fsb_policy
RT @trussliz: Life sciences are at the heart of my vision to build a country fit for the future. As Prime Minister I will make it easier than ever for firms like @SaiLifeSciences to invest in Britain, and make us a science and technology superpower.
RT @JamesCleverly: Liz is getting the breadth of support needed to win the next general election.
Endorsements from both the Express and the Evening Standard.
#LizForLeader @trussliz
I have worked with @trussliz.
✅ I’ve seen her DELIVER
✅ I know she has VISION
✅ I TRUST her
Proud to have voted for #LizForLeader
RT @trussliz: By cutting taxes and supporting small businesses, my plan will help grow the economy and create more well-paid jobs.
I agree with @fsb_policy - we cannot tax our way to growth.
RT @trussliz: Thank you to the thousands of #LizForLeader supporters who have signed up on http://lizforleader.co.uk to be a part of our campaign.
@Conservatives members are putting their trust in Liz to unite our Party, deliver for our country and win the next election. 🇬🇧
Congratulations to all involved in negotiating the Doha Agreement 🇹🇩🇶🇦. I encourage Chad's transitional authorities to make further progress on the path back to civilian rule, including a genuinely inclusive National Dialogue and upholding their commitments to @_AfricanUnion
RT @FCDOGovUK: It's welcome news that Ukrainian grain has begun to arrive in other countries thanks to the UN deal being adhered to.
But Russia must take responsibility for its role in worsening the food crisis and stop its illegal assault on Ukraine once and for all.
RT @scullyp: 1st way to support people squeezed by cost of living pressures is not to take their money in tax in the first place. Then to look at targeted direct support like the £1200 per household already aimed at the lowest paid. That's the Conservative way under #LizForLeader.
A bit of my childhood just went
Thank you Sandra Dee

Welcome on board @Metcalfe_SBET.

She focuses on setting clear priorities, leads and delivers.
