J Meirion Thomas: If we are to stop losing our best doctors, we must keep training and retraining them

Some specialist hospitals have made stellar consultant appointments from abroad. However, many doctors relocating here are economic migrants.

Terry Barnes: How Australia’s answer to Johnson may have just sunk the centre-right

A colourful, entertaining, and apparently Teflon-coated Deputy Prime Minister falls foul of a change in political culture.

David Campbell Bannerman: Why EFTA wouldn’t work for Britain

We don’t need a European solution; we need a global solution. We must think independent Anglosphere, not dependent Eurosphere.

Iain Dale: Yes, we’re British. We’re also European.

Plus: Johnson’s EU speech. Turnbull’s sex ban. Horror in America. Change in South Africa. And: order your popcorn for this weekend’s UKIP conference.

David Davies: Now that we’re leaving the EU, we must also quit the European Arrest Warrant

The EAW is based on the flawed presumption of judicial parity between European nations. The UK should forge a new partnership where this is actually the case.

Charlie Elphicke: Keeping order at the border – to prepare for a smooth Brexit

Too often it seems as though our perimeters are seen as a problem to be patched-up rather than an asset to be fully modernised.

In a whole host of countries – Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, the Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland – A&E waiting times are typically under an hour.

Owen Paterson: To make Brexit a success, we must break free from the over-taxed, over-regulated European model

Giving terminally ill, mentally competent adults more choice and control at the end of their lives is a Conservative goal. We should support it.

John Stevens: I am passionately pro-EU. But here’s why I believe Johnson was right about patriotism.

The referendum was at least as much a vote against London as against Brussels – and those whose expert arrogance made them seem to many to be foreigners here.

WATCH: Ici Londres – If statue-smashers don’t like English-speaking civilisation, what would they prefer? asks Daniel Hannan

This competitive virtue-signalling allows mediocre people today to look back on past heroes.

Rebecca Lowe Coulson: Unfashionable and derided it may be, but the concept of citizenship still matters

It’s notable that criticism of it, and of nationhood, typically comes from the privileged, within the most economically and politically secure nations.

Sanjoy Sen: Could hydrogen ease Gove’s diesel ban plan?

The gaps it potentially addresses and the interest shown abroad suggests it at least merits consideration here ias a complement to renewable power generation and electric vehicles.

Daniel Hannan: Uganda shows the power of the free market in action
