Morning @simonjamesjupp wasn't this an election promise for Exmouth? In fact front page news of the Journal the day before the 2019 election? What happened? Government names 72 high streets in England to share £831m recovery fund

My biggest donation was £5K from a corporation. It was incredibly generous of them. But earlier this week we gave it back because I have always pledged not to accept donations from big business... #GeneralElection2019

Wow. Of the £6.5 million or so of the large donations and loans received by political parties in the first week of the campaign, the Conservative Party received £5.6m of it, or 87%.

Really disappointed with Martha Kearney's interview with Kier Starmer. She's barely allowing him to get a sentence out, yet he remains very polite. Tory MPs become aggressive if they're interrupted even once and BBC journalists react by staying silent

Tiverton and Honiton Tory candidate gagged by party officials. Clearly taking the same failed approach as Simon Jupp It looks weak. It is weak

Tory by-election candidate ‘told not to speak to media because of partygate’

Helen Hurford is said to have been ordered not to do press because party bosses believe she will struggle when asked about Boris Johnson’s law-breaking

Tories engineer closure of around 200 Devon community hospital beds because: "They're not needed" despite big problem with timely RDE discharges ... and then build a brand 200 bed new hospital (at considerable cost) to ease pressure on RDE/winter pressures. It's just outrageous

Hey @SW_Help this is the 8.08 from Cranbrook today with six crowded carriages reduced to three! Many ppl have been on this train for a lot longer than me. It's a rugby scrum and you're telling me there's several more days to go? Where's your risk assessment? @bbcdevon

I hope @simonjamesjupp sudden desire to rebel on Plan B for 'infringing civil liberties', means he will also vote down the terrible #PoliceBill which effectively criminalises peaceful protest. What's your position, Simon?

Oh, and the news has reached James O'Brien. Infamy at last for Simon Jupp! Mr Jupp thinks if he remains silent, we'll all forget. Not so...

He'll be 2019 intake. You don't even need to check. The people who watched the lying & cheating of Brexit & Boris Johnson & decided that was the life for them. God only knows what sort of flotsam will get on to the candidates list this time round.

Instead of bashing the FA you should be asking for more funding. I hear there is more money..

Tories plan inheritance tax cuts among others, leaving an £8bn hole in public services when one fifth of councils are already set for bankruptcy after the autumn statement. I propose a new law... jail for politicians who knowingly destroy public services, to retain power #ge24
