Good to welcome @POTUS @realDonaldTrump to Westminster. As HM The Queen said last night, UK-US co-operation has safeguarded the "safety and prosperity of both our peoples for decades." https://t.co/DUejGp25uc — PolitiTweet.org

Good summary by @ShankerASingham & ex-Deputy @USTradeRep Peter Allgeier. "The US does not have adoption of its systems and regulations as an objective, but would require the UK to comply with WTO rules and regulate in ways...consistent with sound science" https://t.co/XPgBmed8k2 — PolitiTweet.org

The #SpecialRelationship has seen unprecedented political, military, security & economic co-operation between the UK & USA for the last 70 years. We are now each other’s largest source of foreign direct investment & we employ over 1 million of each other’s citizens. #StateVisit — PolitiTweet.org

“This leadership election must result in three things for the party: the delivery of Brexit no later than 31 October; capitalism to set people free, tempered by social justice; and strong leadership that can communicate & enthuse.” @patel4witham @MPIainDS https://t.co/3qwqcddgM4 — PolitiTweet.org

I have written for @ConHome about the current leadership election in the face of the existential threat to the Party. We must emerge with a leader unfailingly resolved to lead the UK out of the EU by the 31st October, with or without a deal. https://t.co/0LgmlzxC8n https://t.co/dmJx2racls — PolitiTweet.org

“If only the Remain-backing leadership candidates would look at the big picture, they might see opportunity not despair...If they continue down their imagined damage limitation exercise, history will see that the Conservative Party is just that, history.” https://t.co/BCka4AE0v9 — PolitiTweet.org

“Anybody aspiring to lead the Conservative Party should work out how to absorb that huge eruption of feeling...that the Brexit Party has tapped into...should not just wish to encompass mainstream Right-wing opinion but...actually stand up for it.” https://t.co/tzVpSItmYA — PolitiTweet.org

“No one knew the real 2016 figure because the data is compiled in arrears. Only today do we have the data, published by the Office for National Statistics...The real gross figure is £363 million a week.” https://t.co/kbSsa4RK54 — PolitiTweet.org

Extraordinary results in this @sciencemagazine study. Trials of a GM fungus in Burkina Faso showed a collapse in the number of malaria-carrying mosquitos. There are around 219 million annual cases of malaria, killing 400,000 people every year. https://t.co/63VEXa3UbL — PolitiTweet.org

Touching tribute to founding ERG Chairman Michael Spicer by @DanielJHannan. Michael was completely right when he said: “The essence of why I oppose staying in the EU is that it seems to me that the nation-state is the best unit for democracy.” https://t.co/7CJQUJn5hd — PolitiTweet.org

Great to catch up with @mukherjee_sarah @AdamMSpeed with @paulbristow79 at @CropProtect. Delivered properly, Brexit represents a huge opportunity for UK farmers, allowing them to embrace technology, boosting productivity, growing the rural economy and improving the environment. https://t.co/LtFYTae2zE — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Great to be out campaigning with @PbConservatives for Peterborough @Conservatives candidate @paulbristow79, a sound local businessman determined to see the UK leave the EU by 31st October, ideally with a Free Trade deal but, if necessary, on WTO terms. https://t.co/wLjUHU0lfC — PolitiTweet.org

“Why is the campaign being framed as a contest between Brexiteers and One Nation reformers?..A true One Nation approach would...deliver what the people decided, and start an ambitious programme of social and economic reform” https://t.co/JFAzmOORWB — PolitiTweet.org

“History will likely view George Mitchell in the same light as Norman Borlaug, the founding father of the Green Revolution. Both men ultimately saved millions of lives and increased the quality of life for all, most dramatically among the world’s poor.” https://t.co/v5BqwTCYui — PolitiTweet.org

“We need to enact an ambitious programme to cut, reform and simplify taxes so people can keep more of what they earn. Putting more money into the pockets of families will help them with the rising cost of living, while reducing the tax burden on business” https://t.co/xiMAevbzsT — PolitiTweet.org

Encouraging news in this fascinating @NatureComms paper. "The overall number of illegally killed elephants in Africa seems to be falling... annual poaching rates in 53 sites strongly correlate with proxies of ivory demand in the main Chinese markets" https://t.co/6gm6cfeK3E — PolitiTweet.org

"October 31...must be the end. Hopefully with that firm decision on the table, there is an incentive for the EU to improve their offer, but they may not move on it. We still need to leave...Leaders are there to lead & take decisions, not to fudge & delay" https://t.co/2QMFLrTO0e — PolitiTweet.org

Good piece from IDS. “The next leader must respond to this electoral kicking by making our policy on Brexit crystal clear by giving a concrete promise that Britain will leave the EU by October 31 – deal or No Deal.” https://t.co/zGx4Yaxb29 — PolitiTweet.org
