Sir Craig Oliver might be forgiven a certain sense of satisfaction today

Whichever adviser wrote May’s joke about his knighthood is likely now in his shoes after the publication of her resignation honours list.

Iain Dale: The tragi-comedy of the collapse of Change UK

Plus: Sympathy for the Downing Street SpAds. The case for chemical castration. And: my interviews with the Tory leadership candidates.

Daniel Hannan: That Brexit film works as drama. But it doesn’t as history. I should know. I was there.

The real flaw in Graham’s film was the implication that Vote Leave won by turning the European question into something else.

Brexit: The Uncivil War. Graham gives us Cummings Agonistes – and a Tory work of art.

The noise that he picks up, with an almost clairvoyant sense, is not that of a queue waiting to vote but of a mob pitching the mighty from their seats.

Daniel Hannan: Leave.EU and Arron Banks – the Brexiteers that the Remain campaign loved

And here’s the thing: Banks knew it. Farage knew it. But they didn’t care. Their primary objective was to be seen to lead the campaign, not to win it.

Christopher Howarth: Osborne, Umunna and the CBI are offering a bridge to nowhere, not a bridging agreement

Having attacked EEA membership as a bad deal during the referendum, they now pretend it is a good idea in the hope of preventing Brexit.

Iain Dale: John Howard, Australia’s great centre-right election winner, backs Leave

Plus: John Rees-Evans’s bizarrre views. May’s flourishing line in jokes. Trump’s chances of winning. And: let Article 50 be put to a vote in Parliament and let’s get on with it.

Iain Dale: In defence of Craig Oliver

Plus: I upset Plaid. I recommend Matt Forde’s TV series. And: will a ticket to Norwich cost me £27.10 or £103.10?

Iain Dale: Yes, it’s partisan, but Oliver’s referendum memoir is one of the best political books of the year

If you hate Michael Gove, you’ll love this book. If you think Theresa May is a bit of a calculating minx, you’ll have your suspicions confirmed.

Cameron is attempting to blame his colleagues for his failed EU renegotiation

No-one expects the former Prime Minister to be happy about what has happened. But trying to dodge responsibility is deeply unattractive.

Iain Dale: Someone should have asked Owen Smith if he was really ready for leadership

Plus: Lessons I have learned from Craig Oliver. The Brexit apocalypse hasn’t happened. And the latest evidence Trump is unfit to be President.

To deliver 517 manifesto pledges, Cameron needs to share power. Here are three ways of doing so.

Pledges on this scale cannot be delivered in this Commons without Conservative consensus. They can only be charmed – not bullied – onto the statute book.

Iain Dale: Justice for Jeremy!

Plus: Loud sounds from Tom Watson. Pig noises from Craig Oliver. And: Come and hear me make a fool of myself in Manchester on Sunday.

Securing the Majority 6) Build on CCHQ’s ethnic minority campaigning

Priti Patel, Alok Sharma, Shailesh Vara – all have played a part in the big push among Indian-origin voters. It needs more money and support.

Securing the Majority 5) Welcome, new Downing Street team. Now get a grip on appointments.

Number 10, Matthew Hancock, the Whips, Ministers themselves: all must ensure that Sir Humphrey’s grip is loosened.
