Lord Ashcroft: For many voters, America’s election was not about Biden – but a referendum on Trump

The new President’s problems will begin right at the start with whatever he decides to do next.

By Lord Ashcroft | 20 January 2021 | 36 comments

Interview: Goodhart says Johnson understands better than Starmer that a graduate meritocracy alienates manual workers

Lord Ashcroft: Trump stands a better chance of re-election in November than you may think

In political terms, there is still time for the Coronavirus crisis to turn the tables on the President. But it hasn’t yet.

By Lord Ashcroft | 15 April 2020 | 45 comments

Coronavirus 2) Ryan Bourne: Beware it being used as a cover for promoting socialism and protectionism

A home-focused industrial policy hardly saved China from this epidemic. And openness and markets ensure diversity of supply – particularly in medicine and food.

By Ryan Bourne | 4 March 2020 | 76 comments

“If you go ‘transgender rights are our big thing’, you are going to lose that culture war”

How the Conservatives are winning and Labour losing the working class – a pattern that the latter’s leadership candidates are set to repeat.

WATCH: “It’s not the end for Corbyn” – Burgon

“He has a long political career ahead of him should he wish. He is ten years younger than Bernie Sanders.”

16 February 2020 | 28 comments

Ben Roback: Introducing the real winner from the Democrat primaries to date. Trump.

His campaign team are likely to be rubbing their hands with glee at the prospect of facing off against Sanders.

By Ben Roback | 12 February 2020 | 19 comments

Ben Roback: 2020. Mayor Pete surges in Iowa.

Still a long shot for the candidacy, this development means that Buttigieg is a name you will be hearing much more about in the weeks and months to come.

Ben Roback: Impeachment and scandals – the backdrop to the 2020 election is set

By Ben Roback | 7 November 2019 | 18 comments

Lord Ashcroft: With a year to go, my latest research looks at Trump’s chances of getting a second term

A portion of his 2016 voters are unimpressed and wavering – but the President’s fate is not settled. Particularly as the Democrats are yet to agree a candidate.

By Lord Ashcroft | 5 November 2019 | 9 comments

Ben Roback: The Democrats, gender, diversity, youth – and why Biden (76) may take on Trump (72)

By nominating him, they would be wagering a similar bet to the one they placed in 2016 when Clinton was selected as the safe candidate.

By Ben Roback | 22 May 2019 | 12 comments

Ben Roback: Can a true progressive win the presidency in 2020?

Hopefuls should remember that what plays well in the primaries may be un-deliverable from the White House.

By Ben Roback | 30 January 2019 | 27 comments

Sanders is a refreshing change from the careerists who infest American as well as British politics.

So though he presents himself as anti-Trump, he has something in common with him. And there could, astonishingly, be a future for socialism in America.

By Andrew Gimson | 26 January 2019 | 17 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 | 44 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.
