Garvan Walshe: Merkel stood firm against her party’s worst instincts on immigration. And paid the price.

What would the lesser men who would bring her down have done: put migrants on sealed trains in their tens of thousands and send them – where, exactly?

By Garvan Walshe | 8 November 2018 at 6:20 am | 54 comments

Ben Roback. America’s mid-terms. Not so much a blue wave as a blue ripple.

The Republicans made gains in the Senate, the Democrats won back the House – but that’s not enough to give them the stranglehold on Trump that they wanted.

By Ben Roback | 7 November 2018 at 1:45 pm | 44 comments

Project Fear Three. Coming your way soon, courtesy of Downing Street?

Obama’s EU referendum intervention didn’t help deliver a Remain result for Cameron. It’s not clear that the Government has learned from the experience.

By Paul Goodman | 7 November 2018 at 6:40 am | 248 comments

Graham Gudgin: Are we inching nearer to an escape from the Northern Ireland backstop?

The talks appear to be taking place on a more constructive basis – and within striking distance of an accommodation.

By Dr Graham Gudgin | 7 November 2018 at 6:20 am | 50 comments

Lewes Bonfire. You really want to see the Big Society in action? Then here it is.

There is a spirit of liberty at this event, informed by the belief that traditional British freedom includes the right not just to make a lot of noise, but to be extremely rude.

By Andrew Gimson | 6 November 2018 at 6:50 am | 45 comments

The Moggcast. “We should be prepared to leave with No Deal rather than sacrifice Northern Ireland to Dublin and Brussels”

“There won’t be a Government to push it through it they betray the province.” Plus: Crouch was right to resign over FOBTs.

Tom Clougherty: Make Work Pay. A new agenda from the CPS for fairer taxes – including an end to pernicious marginal rates.

If one of a couple claiming the marriage allowance becomes a higher rate taxpayer, there is a 23,800 per cent marginal tax rate on the first penny over the threshold.

How a Brexit deal would be done

What will happen this week? When could a summit take place? What would the Cabinet say – and what might the Attorney General do?

By Paul Goodman | 5 November 2018 at 6:40 am | 223 comments

Nicky Morgan: The Budget – and a Government that failed to listen to the country over problem gambling

We need to be alive to adding to the impression that the fixing of a social harm can wait a few months while we find a way to replace lost revenue.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 5 November 2018 at 6:30 am | 26 comments

Alexander Temerko: The relationship between business and government has never been as meaningless as under May

The key to a good Brexit is empowering UK entrepreneurs to talk to their European counterparts and become ambassadors for Downing Street’s plan.

By Alexander Temerko | 5 November 2018 at 6:20 am | 7 comments

Lord Ashcroft: “I was like, we must pick one of these? But I’m pleasantly surprised.” My pre-election focus groups from California.

Despite his dominance of the national scene, Trump was hardly a consideration for most of our participants when it came to deciding how to vote this week.

By Lord Ashcroft | 5 November 2018 at 6:20 am | 5 comments

May’s Brexit deal. The Cabinet must stand ready to take back control.

The draft deal could wreck meaningful trade deals, hand over £40 billion for no bankable gain – and potentially threaten the break-up of the UK.

By Paul Goodman | 4 November 2018 at 7:00 am | 307 comments

Iain Mansfield: We must recapture the commanding heights of society from the Left

It has secured an overwhelming dominance. Until or unless this changes, the Right may win elections – but to limited effect.

By Iain Mansfield | 4 November 2018 at 6:30 am | 32 comments

Our survey. More than four in ten Conservative members want May to step down immediately.

Four fifths of our panel remain opposed to her leadership, but within that group there has been a significant hardening of attitudes.

By Henry Hill | 3 November 2018 at 7:00 am | 262 comments

Adrian Crossley: Crouch was right about Fixed Odd Betting Terminals – and the Government should follow her lead

The Government has been bold on this so far and now it must be bolder still. For some, this pause may have tragic consequences.

By Adrian Crossley | 3 November 2018 at 6:30 am | 42 comments
