David Lidington: We have left the EU and there is no turning back. Here’s what our new relationship with Europe should look like.

Above all, we need to focus on the strategic picture. Throughout the world democracy, human rights and the rule of law are under pressure.

By David Lidington | 29 December 2020 | 18 comments

Gary Powell: How the Met went after Grimes – but turned a blind eye to incitement to murder the Prime Minister

The Government is turning a blind eye to self-evident politicisation – a miserable milestone in the Conservative Party’s masochistic colonisation by woke ideology.

By Gary Powell | 12 November 2020 | 41 comments

Where is the Conservatives’ Constitution, Democracy and Rights Commission?

Hugo de Burgh: We owe it to future generations of Brits to work with China

It is our third largest market – we must work with it if we are to help resolve global problems from the environment to nuclear proliferation.

By Hugo de Burgh | 6 July 2020 | 91 comments

Richard Ekins: How the Supreme Court has empowered Gerry Adams to sue the Government – and seek damages

Worse, its judgement has knock-on implications for the effectiveness of government. Urgent corrective legislation is needed.

By Professor Richard Ekins | 31 May 2020 | 39 comments

Owen Paterson: Cameron’s Coalition was formed ten years ago today. It left us a message of hope that we should honour.

As a member of his first Cabinet, I was tested in Northern Ireland – as elsewhere the new government reduced the defict and reformed public services.

By Owen Paterson MP | 11 May 2020 | 18 comments

Keelan Carr: That sinking feeling. The ups, stresses and downs of writing speeches for a Prime Minister.

When the brief is, for example, a speech to commemorate Armistice Day or World AIDS Day, the challenge is even more intense.

By Keelan Carr | 13 April 2020 | 29 comments

By Sir Julian Brazier | 15 January 2020 | 20 comments

Johnson, Macron and Merkel don’t agree on everything, but they share a common concern about ISIS now being allowed the space to revive.

By Paul Goodman | 6 January 2020 | 106 comments

John Jenkins: Too many excuses are made for Iran – especially by the EU. We must get real, stand with America, and take decisive action.

I’m glad to see we’ve now had the guts to stop a tanker we believe is smuggling Iranian oil in defiance of sanctions on Syria.
