The Public Order Bill contains vague and sweeping powers to impose ‘Serious Disruption Prevention Orders’ which are a serious threat to free speech and press freedom. These powers should be stripped from the Bill. My article in the Times Red Box: https://t.co/6QkABwPLnM — PolitiTweet.org

8) It also ignored the existing level of Albanian organised crime in Hull. Indeed, it did not even consult with the local police before attempting to impose this centre. Needless to say, it did not consult affected local MPs either. — PolitiTweet.org

7) When the Home Office attempted to set up a dispersal centre in my constituency, it ignored the local authority warnings of the impact of such a centre on public services, on healthcare, and on children’s services. — PolitiTweet.org

6) But any new site must be carefully chosen – the Home Office must not unilaterally open huge asylum centres with no proper consideration of local conditions, as it has in the past. — PolitiTweet.org

5) However, part of the PM’s plan to get asylum seekers out of expensive hotels is to use sites like student accommodation. — PolitiTweet.org

4) The British public have a long history of welcoming asylum seekers to our country with open arms, but in recent years criminal gangs have been abusing our system. It is time to do something about it. — PolitiTweet.org

3) It is wrong that bogus asylum seekers, from safe countries, can be allowed to clog up our system and abuse our modern slavery and human trafficking laws to stay in the UK. — PolitiTweet.org

2) The Prime Minister is right to be doing all he can to send asylum seekers, from safe countries like Albania, home. — PolitiTweet.org

1) @RishiSunak's plan will go a long way to address the problems the country is facing, but if it is to work, we need to see a radical improvement in decision-making processes in the Home Office 🧵 https://t.co/x9XAberE1p — PolitiTweet.org

This morning I was pleased to open the new banking hub in Cottingham to give locals and businesses the #AccessToCash they need! https://t.co/BU5SQLAOLd — PolitiTweet.org

We have already seen a number of doubtful British cases extradited to the US to be heard in what, frankly, I believe to be a flawed system that does not work for British citizens. — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

It is a travesty of justice that Anne Sacoolas is not in the UK to be sentenced. This is a direct outcome of a flawed extradition treaty that does not work for British citizens - it should be renegotiated immediately. https://t.co/tPueAkxrCE — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

The first thing to understand is not all Albanians coming to Britain have criminal intent. The issue is that a large number of people are being brought across the Channel by criminal gangs, who then coerce them into doing their criminal bidding. https://t.co/JbH8tVopFg — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

This looks like quite a good scheme, although we will have to await the full details. One very good aspect is having @KevanJonesMP and Lord Arbuthnot on the independent advisory board. https://t.co/HxTfgGviPf — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

Sweden is a signatory to the ECHR, and has a 0 per cent acceptance rate for Albanian asylum seekers. External courts have been unable to stop the Swedish Government tackling the problem head-on, so why should they stop us? My piece in the Telegraph: https://t.co/6dIE34PYmt — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

Leaving the European Convention on Human Rights would not solve the Channel migrant crisis. It would simply confuse the issue. Instead, we should be following the example set by countries like Sweden. — PolitiTweet.org

Yesterday I attended @AmnestyUK's event in Parliament Luis Manuel, an artist & prisoner of conscience from Cuba was detained simply for posting online his plans to join a protest Cuba must grant Luis' immediate & unconditional release: https://t.co/Y9Pls27nAS #FreeLuisManuel https://t.co/Anmn7u8txK — PolitiTweet.org

I am glad that the Government wants to remove the 'legal but harmful' clause from the #OnlineSafetyBill. What we need is proper, regular debate in Parliament about the bounds of online speech - not arbitrary authority in the hands of the Secretary of State. https://t.co/iXZM12AJc9 — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

While there have been many positive changes to the Online Safety Bill, it will still allow the state to order companies to undermine encryption, threatening the privacy rights of every user. I have tabled an amendment to remove this. My @ConHome article: https://t.co/JMs41bzndw — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

The ambulance union, Unison, made the rather implausible claim that their strikes would not create a risk to lives The Government is now in intensive talks to avoid just that It is vital the health unions' strikes do not jeopardise the lives of citizens https://t.co/M6BfsSxUro — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

More silly stuff in @thetimes on govt considering withdrawal from ECHR. Since most European countries have zero asylum approvals & Sweden designed their whole system of zero approvals around both European Court's precedent, it clearly isn't the problem. https://t.co/2I9ToDGMbG — PolitiTweet.org

Very sorry to hear Assem Allam has died. He was a great businessman, a great supporter of the local community, and a very good man. He will be greatly missed. — PolitiTweet.org

I have, this evening, written to the @BCEReviews to thank them for their work and broadly welcome their proposals for my region. However, I have raised a number of concerns as part of this final stage of the review, and you can too. https://t.co/M6ahVqmnM9 — PolitiTweet.org

I have long believed in the importance of 'designing out' crime in every new development. When I was Shadow Home Secretary I made this short film on the issue. https://t.co/qHajhEuRyD — PolitiTweet.org

David Davis @DavidDavisMP

I am pleased to see the potential for crime at the proposed open space in Melton is being taken seriously. At the planning meeting earlier this month, I stressed the importance of getting the police's opinion to ensure it does not lead to an increase in anti-social behaviour. https://t.co/7xLgyZOI2w — PolitiTweet.org
