It’s been an honour to represent Orpington for 9 years & to serve as a minister under three PMs. In recent weeks I’ve been torn between family loyalty and the national interest - it’s an unresolvable tension & time for others to take on my roles as MP & Minister. #overandout

Parliament should be allowed to get on with it and vote on the PM's deal before Christmas. It's not going to improve with a few tweaks and assurances. It's fundamentally flawed. Persisting with it is burning up valuable time. Delaying vote til mid January totally unacceptable.

A crackdown on academic freedom won't help India transform itself into a knowledge economy. Not a single university in the Times Higher Education’s global top 300 this year, for the first time since 2012. ft.com/content/15723d… via @FinancialTimes

Big news - Home Secretary accepts my new clause in Immigration Bill lifting post study restrictions on foreign students! Real win for UK soft power. Many thanks to Conservative colleagues and the x-party MPs who backed it, esp ⁦@PaulBlomfieldMP⁩ on.ft.com/2WVk2B8

Full of admiration for @SamGyimah. A strong & principled resignation statement. And good to see him open to giving the public the final say now we know the Brexit deal that’s actually on the table.

You can read why Sam Gyimah has chosen to quit the Government over the Brexit deal from the man himself. Here’s his piece for the @Telegraph: telegraph.co.uk/politics/2018/…

Many wonderful things about Orpington but Dina Asher-Smith is truly something else... not just the fastest in the world but 10 A*s at GCSE, 3 As at A Level and a first class degree from Kings ...

Actually. No. Disadvantaged young people now more than 40 per cent more likely to go to university than they were in 2009/10

Toby Young's track record setting up & supporting free schools speaks for itself. His decision to stand down from the OfS board and repeat unreserved apologies for inappropriate past remarks reflects his character better than the one-sided caricature from his armchair critics.

Delighted to be appointed unis & science minister (for the 4th time...by a 3rd consecutive PM). Really looking forward to working again with our world-class unis, scientists and innovators - our greatest national asset + key to our future as a knowledge economy

Government must stop running down the clock in the hope of ramming the PM’s deal through Parliament at the eleventh hour - this amendment hopefully won’t let it.
