Nicky Morgan: Threats, intimidation, violence, and trolling. Something is rotten in the state of our democracy.

Those who turn a blind eye to MPs being labelled mutineers are playing with a fire which will eventually consume them too.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 18 December 2017 | 547 comments

Rebecca Lowe Coulson: Why Brexit, politics – and everything else – can’t just be about economics

A weakness in this book is that its support for nation states is predicated on disappointed economic necessity.

By Rebecca Lowe | 22 November 2017 | 109 comments

Nicky Morgan: If voters don’t trust Conservative values, they won’t vote for Conservative candidates

I believe that a discussion about values could be key to addressing much of the unhappiness which triggered the referendum result.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 11 September 2017 | 167 comments

Tina Stowell: The question that voters are asking in this election is – who’s with us, and who’s against us?

Last June’s Brexit vote had less to do with EU membership than a wider discontent with how Britain is governed.

By Baroness Stowell | 14 May 2017 | 108 comments

Macron’s win will enthuse Britain’s social democrats – who currently need all the cheering up they can get

Perhaps the reason why the Conservatives are marginalising them is that the former are shaping an electoral coalition big enough to include Leavers and Remainers.

By Paul Goodman | 8 May 2017 | 212 comments

Carswell. Energetic, honest – and with no idea of how the world actually works

Taking out the middle man is what the Protestant reformers promised to do, and Carswell is in his way a very Protestant figure.

By Andrew Gimson | 29 April 2017 | 42 comments

Alistair Burt: It’s time for Remainers to accept the referendum result – and I say that as a pro-European

The correct response to its aftermath and to Blair’s speech is not to refight old battles, but to build a positive relationship with the Union from the outside.

By Alistair Burt MP | 20 February 2017 | 165 comments

James Frayne: First, they encourage us to switch to diesel. And now they want to charge us for it. What planet are these politicians on?

You can’t encourage people to take what are described as virtuous acts, only to punish them later financially.

By James Frayne | 2 February 2017 | 34 comments

James Frayne: There’s a quiet counter-revolution underway in England

Some voters are angry, but anger doesn’t define most people most of the time.

By James Frayne | 8 December 2016

Now that Italy has voted No, the emboldened opposition parties fight to take over

Traditionally, a technocratic government would now steer the country through choppy waters. But this time that could lead to more instability.

By Mark Wallace | 5 December 2016

How Sunday’s vote in Italy could plunge the Euro into crisis

The referendum was meant to be about constitutional reform. Instead, it’s become an anti-politics storm which could have wide-reaching consequences.

By Mark Wallace | 1 December 2016 | 27 comments

Ryan Shorthouse: Don’t bend to this anti-establishment rage. Challenge and confront it.

Indiscriminate attacks on Parliament, the judiciary, the civil service, the media and business are anti-meritocratic and nihilistic, which should trouble those on the Right.

By Ryan Shorthouse | 11 November 2016 | 120 comments

Cameron and Osborne defeated the Labour moderates before Corbyn did

The cranky Labour leader only got his chance because the Conservatives first beat Miliband and Balls.

By Andrew Gimson | 24 August 2016 | 45 comments

Nic Conner: I’m a Brexiteer. I doubted May. I was wrong. It’s time to admit that our new Prime Minister is now one of us.

Her actions demonstrate that she truly understands the concerns of ordinary people and the reasons why they voted to leave the EU.

By Nic Conner | 20 July 2016 | 84 comments

You’ve heard of post-truth politicians. Now meet Corbyn’s Labour – the post-political party.

Many of the party’s new members seem to support him simply as a fashion statement.
