Unblocking the loans scheme traffic jam

The Chancellor is set to build a relief road to get round the present pile-up of Government, banks and business.

By Paul Goodman | 25 April 2020 | 90 comments

John Longworth: Introducing the Foundation for Independence, a new voice for pro-Brexit business

By John Longworth | 13 March 2020 | 12 comments

James Frayne: Ten errors that Conservatives must avoid making about the new working class voters who backed them last month

Listening to conversations in Westminster in recent days, I fear a number of misconceptions will drive bad decision-making.

Richard Patient: At last, the Conservatives have realised that the CBI is the voice of big business, not all business

The confederation has wielded considerable influence over the last 30 years. But other, more entrepreneurial voices, must be heard, too.

By Richard Patient | 19 November 2019 | 45 comments

WATCH: Labour has businesses thinking ‘we’re next’, says CBI’s Fairbairn

“This programme, which is appearing to value none of the contribution that business makes, will simply shut investment out of our country.”

Immigration policy must be made for everyone – not just for bigger business

Javid is right to bury the “tens of thousands” target – but he needs to set out a clear pathway to lower migration.

By Paul Goodman | 31 January 2019 | 67 comments

Andrew Jones: We are the party of business – and actions always speak louder than words

The Government has enacted a broad range of measures to help companies large and small grow, create jobs, and boost their local economies.

By Andrew Jones MP | 7 November 2018 | 17 comments

A Budget with a message for Conservative MPs. Nice little seat you have there. Pity if anything happened to it.

In sum, Hammond said: vote for May’s Deal – or the economy gets it. But there’s more than one way of dicing the next election result.

Andy Street: A message to the Chancellor. Tax Amazon more and small businesses less.

Nevertheless, tax alone won’t solve our challenge. Instead we must reshape the high street experience – as we’re starting to do in the West Midlands.

By Andy Street | 23 October 2018 | 23 comments

John Penrose: Rebooting Capitalism 1) A market designed for the many, not the few

In the first of three articles, the Weston-super-Mare MP looks at how to ensure that the customer, not the corporation, is king.

By John Penrose MP | 16 October 2018 | 11 comments

There’s a case for an ‘Amazon tax’, but it isn’t saving the high street

The online retail revolution has brought more convenience and lower prices to millions. Fighting it is an unworthy mission for a pro-consumer party.

By Henry Hill | 11 August 2018 | 103 comments

James Arnell: No Deal 4) An outward-looking, global UK

We re-run the author’s series on what might be done for the UK to be Ready on Day One.

By James Arnell | 2 August 2018 | 35 comments

The Conservatives: not the Party of “f*ck business”, but not the Party of blind obedience to big business, either

Prioritising large over small, or current businesses over future businesses, would hurt workers, consumers, taxpayers, investors and the nation.

By Mark Wallace | 27 June 2018 | 114 comments

Patrick Minford: More compliance. Lower productivity. Reduced growth. Why we must free ourselves from EU regulation.

If we do, we could reverse at least some of the six per cent hit to GDP it has caused so far. If we don’t, we could continue to lose productivity growth of 0.2 per cent a year.

By Patrick Minford | 5 February 2018 | 320 comments

Festus Akinbusoye: We should be the party of small businesses – not big multinationals

We must turbo-charge the vehicle of British entrepreneurship as we drive across the Brexit bridge which should connect us with the rest of the world.
