Graham Jones: In West Berkshire, we will not shirk hard decisions for the sake of mushy populism

Despite our budget being cut, we have achieved bold reforms with libraries, children’s services, broadband roll out and business rates retention. We are open for business.

By Graham Jones | 13 August 2018 | 12 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 | 105 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.

Sponsored Post: Mike Moser: The EFRA committee’s fur inquiry recommends a pragmatic way forward

Those who wish to wear fur and those who do not will both benefit from clearer labelling of fur products, backed up with stronger enforcement.

By Mike Moser | 25 July 2018 | 9 comments

Sam Dumitriu: Reform business rates to increase entrepreneurship

They are rated as the taxes which are most harmful to rates of enterprise, above all others. We would all gain from improving how they work.

By Sam Dumitriu | 17 July 2018 | 36 comments

Tony Williams: In Blackpool, the greatest challenge is anti-social behaviour

Aggressive begging has discouraged people from visiting the town centre. The Labour Council has failed to deal with the problem.

By Tony Williams | 17 July 2018 | 22 comments

Nicky Morgan: Once again, we split over Europe. Once again, we undermine our leader. We Conservatives are set to repeat the same failed cycle. Will we never learn?

We are re-proving that ‘we learn from history that we do not learn from history’.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 16 July 2018 | 239 comments

A customs union 2) Simon Clarke – As a convinced Brexiteer, and an optimist about Britain, I see that joining one would lock us into decline

We shouldn’t be glued as a vassal state to a declining European market.

By Simon Clarke MP | 16 July 2018 | 24 comments

James Frayne: Relations between businesses and politicians are made worse by the fact each misunderstand the other

It’s not just about Brexit – it’s deeper and longer-standing than that. Ironically, relations would improve if they each a bit more combative.

By James Frayne | 3 July 2018 | 18 comments

Nicky Morgan: If Cabinet Ministers aren’t prepared to listen to business, they should consider their position

Saying “f**k business” is the kind of lack of understanding I’d expect from our Marxist-sympathising Shadow Chancellor – not from a Conservative Foreign Secretary.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 2 July 2018 | 222 comments

WATCH: Clark says his job is to ensure businesses don’t need their contingency plans

“I think there will be a good deal, but I can’t pretend that there is a deal now that’s in our back pocket and we’re just going through the motions.”

1 July 2018 | 65 comments

Nick Campsie: When a dam bursts, blame the engineer – not the water. So it should be with government and capitalism.

What is wrong with our version of the systen is not that capitalists are ignoring the rules, it’s that the rules they are following are misspecified.

By Nick Campsie | 1 July 2018 | 35 comments

Sean Malkeson: Why the Year of Engineering should matter to Conservatives – and are we making the most of it?

As the son of a plumber who ran his own local business for several decades, I know that such technical professions can be extremely rewarding.

By Sean Malkeson | 28 June 2018 | 17 comments

Lord Ashcroft: Special Report – Malta makes a strong case to host the EU outposts of British companies after Brexit

As well as its historic links to this country, the island offers a solution-solving attitude and solid work ethic.

By Lord Ashcroft | 28 June 2018 | 68 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
