I will do whatever it takes to root out evil grooming gangs who prey on vulnerable women and young girls.

1/ Firstly, I’m launching a group of specialist police officers who’ll go after grooming gangs across the country to bring them to justice 🧵 New grooming gangs taskforce
2/ And I will ensure the perpetrators of these crimes receive the most severe punishments.

3/ We’re bringing in mandatory reporting for adults working with children.

If they suspect or identify that child is being abused, they must speak out.

Authorities can stop the abuse, put perpetrators behind bars and get victims the support they need much sooner. Mandatory reporting for adults working with children

1/ We have just agreed the biggest trade deal since Brexit.

Joining 11 other countries in the Indo-Pacific, it’s set to boost the UK economy by £1.8bn.

Here’s how the CPTPP will deliver on our pledge to grow the economy 🧵
2/ These countries are home to 500 million people and are worth 12% of global GDP

By cutting trade barriers and increasing our market access, this deal is set to increase UK wages by £800 million compared to 2019 levels as a result.
3/ From accounting to insurance, the UK is the second largest services provider in the world.

This deal will slash red tape for UK service providers by allowing them to operate on a par with local firms – boosting a sector which employs more than 80% of the UK workforce.

1) Today I am introducing new measures to deliver on our promise to tackle illegal immigration.

We are announcing a new deal with Albania to speed up the return of Albanian asylum seekers, who make up a third of those arriving to the UK by small boats. New deal announced with Albania
2/ We are introducing a new, dedicated and unified Small Boats Command Centre to step up how we police the channel.

This will bring together our military and civilian capabilities in a coordinated response to intelligence, channel boat crossing, processing and enforcement. New permanent Small Boats Command Centre
3/ We’re doubling funding for the National Crime Agency to tackle immigration crime in Europe.

We’re also adding 200 new staff to step up our immigration enforcement. These extra resources in turn will allow us to increase raids on illegal working by 50%. Tougher immigration enforcement

1/ China and the Chinese Communist Party represent the largest threat to Britain and the world’s security and prosperity this century.

Read this thread👇on how I will face down China.
2/ I would close all 30 of China’s Confucius Institutes in the UK - the highest number in the world.

Almost all UK government spending on Mandarin language teaching at school is channelled through university-based Confucius Institutes, thereby promoting Chinese soft power.
3/ I will build a new international alliance of free nations to tackle Chinese cyber-threats and share best practice in technology security.
