John Baron: England’s Cancer Strategy risks failure

Yes, survival rates in this country are at their highest ever level, but then so are international survival rates. Our real challenge is to close the gap with averages – let alone the best.

John Baron: Trump’s Iran decision has an alarming North Korean dimension

De-certification of nuclear agreement could lead world leaders to conclude that such deals with the United States are not worth the candle.

John Baron: It’s time to embrace the One-Nation message – and win

As possibly the only Brexiteer in the Parliamentary Party’s One Nation group, I am also only too aware that this message must be accompanied by a successful EU negotiation.

John Baron: No transition – we must not loiter in the EU departure lounge

Such a phased withdrawal is not necessary, and it provides unnecessary succour to those as yet unreconciled to our leaving the EU.

Three years on, with the country’s Parliament now taking refuge in a Greek car ferry, it is clear that the venture has been a disaster.

John Baron MP: The West should not combat Islamic State in Syria

By all means work with local allies to drive them out of Northern Iraq, but fighting them in Syria risk mission creep – and worse.

John Baron MP: Securing earlier diagnosis of cancer

The later the diagnosis, the lower a patient’s chances of recovery.

John Baron MP: It’s time to recognise our nuclear test veterans

Our hope is that the Prime Minister will recognise that our campaign is fair and just.

John Baron MP: As Karzai holds talks with the Taliban, we must learn the lessons from Afghanistan

When designing future foreign policy, we should be clear in constructing narrow and achievable goals.

John Baron MP: The Government is losing the argument on Army reservists

And a series of “Aunt Sallies” won’t help them to win it.
