In today's Westminster Hall debate on bovine TB, I urged the Government to make managing the wildlife population to a level at which TB is not sustainable the focus of its efforts. We need to reduce R0 nationwide to see healthy cattle alongside healthy badgers. https://t.co/Sm2Dxx1nKk — PolitiTweet.org

Opposition MPs suggesting that they were voting for more time to debate is complete humbug. Even with a 4 min limit on speeches, @UKLabour ran out of speakers an hour before the debate ended. @Jacob_Rees_Mogg should let us sit through the night, and we will see how they manage! https://t.co/TuOiC9fEJl — PolitiTweet.org

Exasperating that the @HouseofCommons has rejected the Programme motion for @BorisJohnson’s Withdrawal Agreement Bill after it passed Second Reading. The sooner this Parliament can be replaced in a General Election, the better. — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

I explained why, despite my misgivings, I will vote for the Withdrawal Agreement Bill at 2nd Reading. "I do not recommend it for more than it is...In my opinion it gives us freedom, not the ultimate freedom that all nations desire and develop to, but the freedom to achieve it." https://t.co/VbVMekHnhR — PolitiTweet.org

I asked @BorisJohnson for a cast-iron guarantee that our marine resources and fish stocks would not be used as a bargaining chip in the coming negotiations, and to confirm that we would take full control of the waters in our EEZ. https://t.co/roF6QTPaq4 — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Ahead of today’s debate on @BorisJohnson’s deal, I have written in @Telegraph on why the UK staying in the Customs Union would be a terrible Brexit outcome. An independent UK must emerge as a strong voice in favour of genuine free trade on the world stage. https://t.co/YqlPUrowAY — PolitiTweet.org

I asked @michaelgove to remind Opposition Parties of the wide range of side deals the UK has already agreed with the EU, and how bullish the authorities in France have been that the flow of goods to & from Calais will continue smoothly with all "paperwork" handled electronically. https://t.co/TjamgvioNz — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

17.4 million people are utterly exasperated by the chicanery of the Remain Parliament, so it is welcome that the Government intends to bring the Withdrawal Agreement Bill through @HouseofCommons this week. I asked @Jacob_Rees_Mogg how soon he thinks it could receive Royal Assent. https://t.co/LdNAnURuez — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

With the @niassembly & @niexecutive still not functioning, health, education & other public service outcomes in Northern Ireland are falling behind the rest of the UK. I asked @JulianSmithUK what steps he is taking to ensure that @NIOgov can take action to reverse these declines. https://t.co/775IoVVV3q — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

People will be totally exasperated to hear that no vote is allowed on @BorisJohnson's new Brexit deal this afternoon. Parliament, once again, is decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute. Good news that the Govt is introducing the Withdrawal Agreement Bill today. — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Passing the Letwin Amendment and declining even to come to a verdict on the new Brexit deal just about sums up this rotten Parliament. Good to see @BorisJohnson rule out negotiating an extension and looking forward to seeing the Withdrawal Agreement Bill next week. — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Encouraging meeting with @ShropCouncil on local infrastructure. The North Marches and Wales Strategic Transport Group will publish its report at the end of October, and I will convene a meeting in early November to consider bids for RIS3. @MidsConnect @transportgovuk @grantshapps — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Good meeting with @WMerciaPolice to discuss current policing issues. Excellent news that there are 10 new police officers in Oswestry and 5 in Market Drayton, with more to follow thanks to @BorisJohnson’s recruitment of 20,000. https://t.co/rhf7G0MgZq — PolitiTweet.org

Great to meet Mandy Thorn MBE @oxoncare, newly appointed to chair the @marcheslep. Good discussion on promoting businesses in Shropshire with improved broadband, telephone signal, roads and rail. https://t.co/Ucl4X09xY4 — PolitiTweet.org

Owen Paterson @OwenPaterson

Really good to support @ShropCouncil and @unisontweets raising awareness of racism through the Show Racism the Red Card @SRTRC_England campaign. Particularly pertinent following the awful incidents in Bulgaria this week. https://t.co/aGqQFq8mun — PolitiTweet.org

Following today’s very interesting developments, I will be reading both the revised Northern Ireland protocol and Political Declaration in detail. I will discuss them widely ahead of Saturday’s vote. — PolitiTweet.org
