Luke Evans: What social media says about the Government and the virus. And what my constituents actually said when I asked them.

Independent retailers told me that the Government, though no means has been perfect, has supported them through the darkest of times.

By Dr Luke Evans MP | 24 June 2020 at 6:50 am | 16 comments

Daniel Hannan: The police. Not institutionally racist, but institutionally woke.

Their leaders elevate race relations above what should be their core functions, such as enforcing the law impartially.

By Daniel Hannan | 24 June 2020 at 6:40 am | 124 comments

Matt Kilcoyne: An unholy alliance is frustrating our freedom to shop on Sunday. Johnson should take it on.

The existing rules are inconsistent and hypocritical. They do not reflect a 24/7 economy, where people can purchase online and receive deliveries any time.

By Matt Kilcoyne | 24 June 2020 at 6:30 am | 22 comments

Ryan Bourne: Why Tyrie’s attempt to make the Competition Authority more like Which? magazine was wrong

He wanted the CMA to be both an aggressive consumer champion and decision-maker – “too much prosecution, judge, and jury” according to some.

By Ryan Bourne | 24 June 2020 at 6:20 am | 12 comments

Javid delivers the Budget he never got a chance to – via the Centre for Policy Studies. He wants to go for growth.

It’s a good thing for former senior Ministers to keep thinking, going and contributing, and we wouldn’t be surprised to see a comeback to government.

By Paul Goodman | 23 June 2020 at 7:00 am | 63 comments

James Heywood: Johnson – “Brexity Hezza” or liberalising Thatcherite? Our new report sets out how he can be both.

At the Centre for Policy Studies, we’ve teamed up with Sajid Javid to come up with a comprehensive set of ideas for tackling the challenges ahead.

By James Heywood | 23 June 2020 at 6:40 am | 30 comments

Radical: The BBC, Pink News and how, in reporting on the Gender Recognition Act, the media has shown shocking inaccuracy

Over the last few weeks, publications have routinely made errors in how they cover the GRA and JK Rowling. Readers must beware.

By Radical | 23 June 2020 at 6:30 am | 66 comments

Anthony Browne: It’s time to drop the defeatist narrative about Britain and Covid-19. We have had many successes.

The coverage of death rates in this country has been lacking in nuance – leading people to have skewed perceptions of the UK’s performance.

By Anthony Browne | 23 June 2020 at 6:20 am | 89 comments

For Johnson and the Conservatives, the power of patriotism is a plus

As with Brexit, the fundamentals of the Tory position are much stronger than they may seem to be.

By Paul Goodman | 22 June 2020 at 6:50 am | 289 comments

Richard Holden: Here in Durham, Labour ponder tinkering with statues – while local people yearn for jobs, security and pay

We need to switch from specifying “what’s allowed to open” to “what in the interest of public health needs to continue to be restricted.”

By Richard Holden MP | 22 June 2020 at 6:30 am | 11 comments

Julie Newcombe: Hancock must aid the pandemic’s forgotten victims. The hundreds of autistic people detained in secure units.

Is the sequestering, incarceration and forgetting of these vulnerable children and young adults any better than in Georgian and Victorian times?

By Julie Newcombe | 22 June 2020 at 6:20 am | 7 comments

Polling snapshot. Is the statues and history fracas helping to solidify the Conservative vote?

The blue share in the poll of polls hit 43 per cent on June 2 and hasn’t moved the best part of a month later.

By Paul Goodman | 21 June 2020 at 7:00 am | 173 comments

Sunder Katwala: Race and age. To older Britons, the pace of progress seems swift. To younger ones, frustratingly slow.

The framing of “facts versus feelings” won’t work for the liberal right on race any better than it has for the liberal left on immigration.

By Sunder Katwala | 21 June 2020 at 6:30 am | 71 comments

The NHS App. What’s happening with it? And is it really a “fiasco”?

The core of the problem seems to be that both its own system and the Google/Apple alternative pose substantial problems.

By Charlotte Gill | 20 June 2020 at 7:00 am | 174 comments

David Gauke: Big Government is back. It didn’t work before. It may not now. Here’s why we should be wary of it.

Post-Covid, the environment is likely to be egalitarian and interventionist. For libertarian, small state Eurosceptics, this must come as a disappointment.

By David Gauke | 20 June 2020 at 6:30 am | 140 comments
