Lee Rowley: Brexit is big. But our politics is bigger – and I say that as a committed Leaver. Here are some ideas to boost it.

Remainers and Brexiteers alike must recognise the politicians are stuck in an ever-decreasing circle of fervour, hyperbole and hysteria.

By Lee Rowley MP | 11 January 2019 at 6:20 am | 46 comments

Chris White: The day the Speaker set fire to Erskine May

Even opposition parties and Bercow’s traditional supporters were taken aback by his “ridiculous” ruling. It will have serious repercussions.

By Chris White | 10 January 2019 at 6:30 am | 155 comments

Nadine Dorries: Thuggery. Abuse. Threats. Unacceptable everywhere. But no-one came to Brexiteers’ defence when we were victims.

The abuse became so bad that I felt the need to stop giving media interviews, writing articles and to remove myself from the public arena.

By Nadine Dorries MP | 9 January 2019 at 6:50 am | 95 comments

Rob Wilson: Unless we ask the hard questions, this new plan for the NHS will suffer the same fate as all the others

Big initiatives are easier to announce than they are to see through and properly scrutinise. The health service’s leaders are accomplished at getting their way.

By Rob Wilson | 8 January 2019 at 11:00 am | 23 comments

Greg Hands: “The power is with us.” The two EU officials who want to punish Britain, crafted the deal – and claim they are winning.

Selmayr and Weyand have got much of their way so far. And there’s every chance they will continue to dominate the process.

By Greg Hands MP | 8 January 2019 at 6:20 am | 165 comments

Tim Bale: Johnson and Rees-Mogg are still in with a shout in the race to succeed May

New polling also reveals that neither is so far ahead as to be unstoppable, however.

By Tim Bale | 7 January 2019 at 2:00 pm | 51 comments

Bernard Jenkin: Could the Commons stop Brexit? It’s harder to do than some are suggesting.

The Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Select Committee has today issued a report which casts light on the question.

By Bernard Jenkin MP | 7 January 2019 at 9:30 am | 276 comments

Will Tanner and Guy Miscampbell: A graduate tax cut would put money back in the pockets of young people

The costs could be offset by encouraging a tenth of students away from low-value university and towards higher-value technical education.

By Will Tanner and Guy Miscampbell | 7 January 2019 at 6:20 am | 27 comments

Richard Ritchie: Brexit. Four great Commons debates that show how we got here – and what’s at stake.

That’s to say, those of 1950, 1961, 1967 and 1971. Sovereignty was always the key concern, despite arguments over its meaning.

By Richard Ritchie | 6 January 2019 at 4:30 am | 113 comments

Hiten Ganatra: Why Help to Buy should be extended – not curbed

Applying it to second properties would see more stimulation in the market and see a quick and notable rise in established properties selling.

By Hiten Ganatra | 5 January 2019 at 6:30 am | 65 comments

Andrew Green: The new Immigration White Paper. Not just damaging, but a disaster – both for control and the Conservatives

Others would say that the appointment of a profoundly business-friendly Home Secretary was bound to lead to a weakening of immigration policy.

By Lord Green | 4 January 2019 at 6:30 am | 199 comments

John Downer: Scrapping HS2 wouldn’t help the North, it would cut a vital lifeline to the regional economies

Crucial investment in local rail infrastructure isn’t an alternative to the new line, it depends on it.

By John Downer | 3 January 2019 at 12:00 pm | 101 comments

Alex King: The Remainers’ notion that Brexit is founded on dreams of empire is a tired fantasy

Ironically, a major reason the UK joined the EEC – a club of former colonial powers – was the hope of preserving imperial clout.

By Alex King | 3 January 2019 at 6:30 am | 269 comments

Craig Hoy: Stop demanding the law-abiding simply learn to live with anti-social behaviour

Too many lives are marred by the unrestrained destructive behaviour of a minority. The poorest and most vulnerable suffer the most.

By Craig Hoy | 2 January 2019 at 12:00 pm | 22 comments

Philip Booth: It’s time to remember that there’s more to politics than Brexit

It is essential that voters do not come to believe that those politicians who support a free economy have become obsessed by leaving the EU.

By Philip Booth | 2 January 2019 at 7:00 am | 142 comments
