Nat Wei: We need an energetic, ambitious plan to equip Britain for the challenges of the next decade

Whatever the leadership of our party, the task facing it is the same: building a strong country that delivers a better life.

Nat Wei: Why Britain needs a sovereign wealth fund now more than ever

What if we had given workers on furlough the chance to do R&D for their companies instead of being paid to simply not work at all by the Government?

Comment | By Lord Wei | 18 September 2021 at 1:00 pm

Nat Wei: To make lockdowns a thing of the past, we need a smart revolution in healthcare

It would be better to move diagnosis and treatment of healthcare problems away from hospitals, among other steps.

Comment | By Lord Wei | 26 July 2021 at 1:01 pm

Nat Wei: Ministers need to prepare now for the next sudden crisis – and trust people more as they do so

Harness the wisdom that is out there, and let your colleagues in and beyond Parliament help you, rather being tempted to think we are here to hinder you.

Comment, Highlights | By Lord Wei | 12 January 2021 at 6:20 am | 3 comments

Nat Wei: Forget moving Parliament to York. It should go fully virtual and innovate to save money.

Using technological solutions is not only effective but can enhance opportunities for those wanting to get involved in politics.

Comment, Highlights | By Lord Wei | 24 July 2020 at 6:20 am | 45 comments

Nat Wei: How the internet could have been used to protect lives and livelihoods during this crisis. And how we can do better.

More emphasis could have been put on local delivery of services, drugs, and even treatment using mobile medical equipment and remote consultation.

Comment | By Lord Wei | 20 May 2020 at 11:00 am | 20 comments

Nat Wei: The key to seeing off Corbynism is the mass ownership of assets

Our survival as a party and arguably that of our nation itself depends on people having a stake in this country.

Comment, Highlights | By Lord Wei | 11 November 2019 at 6:20 am | 25 comments

Nat Wei: Like Peel versus the Corn Laws, the Conservative Party must use Brexit to slash the cost of living

As he battled the agri-barons, and Thatcher battled the union barons, so we must champion the underdog against the corporatist barons of today.

Comment, Highlights | By Lord Wei | 6 August 2018 at 6:30 am | 134 comments

Lord Wei: Our business ties with China are strong – but they could be stronger still

Sixty percent of Chinese inward investment to the UK goes to London. More could be done to spread that money around.
