Angus Gillan and Jake Scott: Tunnelling under Stonehenge is a betrayal of Conservative values

We must not abandon our responsibilities and let irreplaceable historic sites be viewed as little more than obstacles to progress.

By Angus Gillan and Jake Scott | 10 December 2020 at 3:00 pm | 28 comments

Alberto Costa: There are too many barriers to Britishness. Post-Brexit, it’s time for a more welcoming citizenship policy.

A positive agenda would encourage those whom we are now seeking to attract to take that extra step.

By Alberto Costa | 10 December 2020 at 11:00 am | 26 comments

Matt Kilcoyne: A wealth tax is a bad idea at the best of times – let alone in the aftermath of a pandemic

We should be going for private sector-led growth – which would mean tax cuts, not a rise for over eight million people.

By Matt Kilcoyne | 10 December 2020 at 6:20 am | 16 comments

Matt Bevington: Barnier doesn’t need a new mandate to find compromises

The UK itself would not dream of changing its formal negotiating objectives at such a crucial point in the talks. Why would the EU?

By Matt Bevington | 9 December 2020 at 11:30 am | 22 comments

Frank Young: We’re sleepwalking into a crisis if we don’t vaccinate against poverty, too

The lesson of the last year is poorer communities are much more vulnerable to the next virus or health emergency.

By Frank Young | 9 December 2020 at 6:20 am | 7 comments

Michal Bazan: Nuclear power and net-zero emissions. Why Sizewell C is key to reaching our climate change targets.

The imminent approval of its power station in Suffolk gives us hope for a more innovative and greener future.

By Michal Bazan | 8 December 2020 at 3:00 pm | 35 comments

Benjamin Obese-Jecty: How to take back control of the narrative about foreign national offender deportations

The Government would do well to make clear from the outset that those being deported are not British citizens, and detail their crimes.

By Ben Obese-Jecty | 8 December 2020 at 11:00 am | 15 comments

Simon Baynes: Coronavirus has been devastating for people with dementia. National governments must do more to help.

I would urge them to work with clinical commissioning groups, local health boards and others to help the vulnerable recover.

By Simon Baynes | 8 December 2020 at 6:20 am | 2 comments

Zewditu Gebreyohanes: We need a state-run scheme to help older people volunteer in schools

When the pandemic permits, it could not only combat loneliness but be a cost-effective way to support teachers and a boon to children.

By Zewditu Gebreyohanes | 7 December 2020 at 2:00 pm | 20 comments

Benedict Rogers: Amendments to the Government’s Trade Bill can help Britain stand up to genocidal regimes

Under new proposals, bilateral trade deals with genocidal states would be revoked or prohibited.

By Benedict Rogers | 7 December 2020 at 11:00 am | 2 comments

Robert Jenrick: We’ve made real progress on reducing rough sleeping since the pandemic came – but there’s much more still to do.

This is not an easy issue to solve. Rough sleeping is as much a health issue as it is a housing issue – it is often a crisis of addiction and mental health as well.

By Robert Jenrick MP | 7 December 2020 at 6:20 am | 4 comments

Philip Davies: Our frontline staff are vital to our economic recovery, and we must do more to support them.

Research indicates that over half of customer-facing staff have experienced abuse from customers since the pandemic began.

By Philip Davies MP | 6 December 2020 at 6:30 am | 23 comments

Andrew Montford: Honesty is needed on the huge costs of attempting “net-zero”

£3 trillion is £100,000 per household – we could have to spend double that. A switch to a command economy would also mean losing our freedom.

By Andrew Montford | 5 December 2020 at 1:00 pm | 96 comments

Steve Brine: Ministers have seized the chance to finally end the HIV epidemic

When so many are cynical about politicians, it was brilliant to see Conservative colleagues committing the Government to decisive action.

By Steve Brine MP | 4 December 2020 at 11:00 am | 18 comments

Desmond Swayne: Same old Assisted Dying plan, same old unresolved problem – that it would put the vulnerable at risk

From medical prognoses through doctors’ assessments to non-existent codes of practice, the proposal lacks reliable safeguards.

By Desmond Swayne MP | 4 December 2020 at 6:20 am | 33 comments
