Shanker Singham: How British farming can flourish after we leave the EU

At the moment, there are many areas where farmers cannot use new technologies. These will increasingly feed not only our consumers but also the world’s poorest ones.

By Shanker A.Singham | 11 February 2019 | 94 comments

Antoinette Sandbach: Lower bills, less waste and better health. Time to insulate UK homes.

Other countries manage to do this far better than we do; it is not right that Britain should fall behind on such a simple act.

By Antoinette Sandbach | 14 January 2019 | 39 comments

George Freeman: There was much to cheer in the Budget. But now we need an inspiring programme for growth.

At the moment, we are treading water and appear to be relying on popular support for Brexit, and the threat of Corbyn, to keep us in office.

By George Freeman MP | 2 November 2018 | 16 comments

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 | 25 comments

John Penrose: Rebooting Capitalism 2) How to help give younger people a fair deal

In the second of three articles, the Weston-super-Mare MP sets out plans on tax, housing deficits and debt to help achieve inter-generational justice.

By John Penrose MP | 17 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 | 12 comments

Nicky Morgan: Let Hammond and the Treasury lead our Conservative programme for national renewal

Levels of trust between Numbers 10 and 11 Downing Street may be low, but the latter holds the key to helping create an economy and society that works for everyone.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 8 October 2018 | 41 comments

James Frayne: Is a Nappy Tax coming soon? How Hammond may raise more revenue when his Budget comes.

Public health and environmental health look the likeliest sources. Shifting everyone to the equivalent of PAYE and taxing the biggest businesses must also be targets.

By James Frayne | 18 September 2018 | 93 comments

Bob Seely: Yes, Brexit and leadership are important. But so’s everything else. Here are some ideas for the future.

Scrap HS2. Integrate social care. Abolish NI. Reverse police cuts. Consider a new Bill of Rights. And much, much more.

By Bob Seely MP | 18 September 2018 | 52 comments

Ben Rayment: A plan to use ethical consumption to cut workplace injustices worldwide

We need a Fair Trade-style rating or branding system for products based on the quality of working conditions undergone to create them.

By Ben Rayment | 17 September 2018 | 21 comments

Stephen Bates: How to reduce our scandalous waste of food

Let’s have each local store publish its waste levels to help consumers choose where to shop. And let’s have food manufacturers publish their waste levels too.

By Dr Stephen Bates | 14 September 2018 | 16 comments

Charlotte Salomon: Is it time to let the high street die?

Big retail hasn’t adapted to the new world of e-commerce after 20 years – and it’s doubtful whether it ever will.

By Charlotte Salomon | 9 September 2018 | 68 comments

Megan Trethewey: The power of the Great Green British Consumer

A third of consumers internationally are now choosing to ‘buy from brands they believe are doing social or environmental good’.

By Megan Trethewey | 13 August 2018 | 32 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 | 115 comments

Robert Halfon: We need a workers’ party that’s like a modern trade union – not a trivial Nando’s scheme.

We must change our organisation, making it more democratic, accessible for the lower paid and a place in which the most disadvantaged can feel at home.

By Robert Halfon MP | 23 May 2018 | 23 comments
