Daniel Hannan: The proposed Brexit terms represent a deal worse than either staying or leaving.

Frankly, any outcome – no deal, Norway, Canada, even the risk of a second referendum – would be better than what is currently on the table.

Daniel Hannan: Kavanaugh may be guilty. But justice demands that his confirmation should take place.

The presumption of innocence should not be some empty piety. A nasty aspect of politics is that this principle is reversed when the headlines are bad enough.

Daniel Hannan: We no longer need to imagine a free trade deal with the USA – we’ve written one

Our treaty would be the most comprehensive ever. And it rests on mutual recognition, not top-down standardisation.

Daniel Hannan: It should be obvious, not controversial, to seek a deep friendship with our EU neighbours

In the third piece in our mini-series evaluating the EEA, our columnist wonders how both sides managed to become so hostile to moderate concepts.

Daniel Hannan: Identity politics. It becomes impossible to avoid giving offence, because the offended keep changing the rules.

In an atmosphere when anyone can close down the conversation by saying “I feel uncomfortable”, rational discussion becomes impossible.

Daniel Hannan: Political clickbait is Fleet Street’s addiction, and the nation’s problem

The trend fuels harmful misrepresentations and myths. It might bring in ad revenue, but it harms the fabric of our democracy.

Daniel Hannan: Even the blockade of Qatar hasn’t produced the calamity that hysterical Remainers now predict from Brexit

Their hysterical tone serves only to make EU negotiators dig in deeper – thus, paradoxically, making a breakdown in talks more likely.

Daniel Hannan: My view of May’s new Brexit plan. It’s just about better than No Deal. But now a line in the sand must be drawn.

Preparing for no deal ought therefore to be our national priority – cuts in corporate and personal taxes, removal of regulations, openness to global business.

Daniel Hannan: Higher taxes, spending bungs, pay caps, gender quotas. Is this really the brave new Brexit Britain we want?

What changed? When did we lose the global vocation that infused the Cabinet, Leavers and Remainers alike, two years ago?

Daniel Hannan: On the Elgin Marbles, as on everything else, Corbyn’s assumption is that Britain Is Always In The Wrong

There are honourable arguments for and against shipping the Parthenon marbles to Greece. His instinctive knee-jerk is not one of them.

Daniel Hannan: Trade liberalisation, even more than trade deals, is the true prize to pursue

As the miracles of Hong Kong and Singapore demonstrate, cheaper imports, rather than easier exports, are the big win. The trick is persuading voters to agree.

Daniel Hannan: For partisan advantage, Labour demands a worst-of-all-worlds Brexit

Leaving the Single Market while keeping the Customs Union would reduce the United Kingdom economy to the status of a bargaining chip for Brussels.

WATCH: There is very little evidence of systematic gender pay discrimination, argues Hannan

“I understand that people enjoy righteous anger…but what’s alarming is the people who understand statistical distribution and who are going along with this.”

Daniel Hannan: Like the Windrush children, EU nationals raised here have a moral right to UK citizenship

We must oppose illegal immigration. But making life harder for legitimate residents helps nobody.

Daniel Hannan: Corbyn’s first instinct in a national crisis is to treat it as a way to attack the Tories – much to Putin’s satisfaction

Ask one question: In what conflict has Jeremy Corbyn ever been on Britain’s side? He always finds a way of blaming the world’s problems on the West.
