Bernard Jenkin: If necessary, we must pass legislation that will nullify the direct effect and direct applicability of EU laws

It may be good tough talk to speak of breaking international law, but it does not engender respect.  His exact words were not even factually correct. 

By Sir Bernard Jenkin MP | 11 September 2020 | 111 comments

Roderick Crawford: The EU must drop its maximalist approach to the Northern Ireland Protocol

From the start, the trade bloc has not fully understood the Belfast Agreement and has been slow to see that it undermined many of its positions.

By Roderick Crawford | 29 June 2020 | 37 comments

Stephen Booth: On the Northern Ireland Protocol, the UK’s negotiating hand is stronger than people think

The formal deadline for agreeing an extension to the transition period is close, but Britain is unlikely to ask for one.

By Stephen Booth | 14 May 2020 | 60 comments

Maximum flexibility – the Government’s starting assumption in post-Brexit negotiations

There is a good reason why they have rejected all limiting amendments to the Withdrawal Agreement, and are making legislative provision for swift divergence.

By Mark Wallace | 17 January 2020 | 128 comments

Ruparel’s potential ‘landing zone’

Amid heated speculation, we reproduce the possible outcome presented by the former EU adviser to Theresa May.

By Raoul Ruparel | 11 October 2019 | 15 comments

Why the ’22 Executive must tell May to go this week

The unrebuttable fact is that the Prime Minister is in breach of her word, and that the collapse of trust in the Party threatens to be terminal.

Bim Afolami: Why I am joining the Commission seeking Alternative Arrangements for the Northern Ireland border

If you are sceptical, I understand. I was too. But this is the only viable way forward.

By Bim Afolami MP | 7 May 2019 | 71 comments

Our survey. Party member opinion swings back against May’s deal.

Our last four surveys found rising support for it. Now there is a shift the other way. That bodes badly for any concessions to Corbyn on customs.

Daniel Hannan: We are shuffling towards a deal that is worse either than remaining or leaving

The EU asks: what do you want? But the Commons has said what it wants. Namely, the so-called Brady Amendment.

By Daniel Hannan MEP | 3 April 2019 | 106 comments

Anthony Speaight: Six reasons why we are now less likely to be trapped in the backstop

Whilst it remains the case that the Protocol could conceivably remain in force indefinitely, that scenario has become more theoretical than it was previously.

By Anthony Speaight QC | 20 March 2019 | 56 comments

Robert Halfon: If you don’t like the backstop and you want a Brexit deal done quickly, there’s only one answer: Common Market 2.0

I voted for the Prime Minister’s deal today. But the Commons didn’t – and we now all need a positive alternative.

By Robert Halfon MP | 13 March 2019 | 121 comments

Michael Josem: Company regulation. Westminster has no right to legislate for the Isle of Man.

It is neo-colonialist for MPs to attempt to do otherwise in relation to Crown Dependencies – and the attempt should be resisted.

By Michael Josem | 5 March 2019 | 43 comments

Howard Flight: The Brexit deal. I suspect we will end up being presented with a last-minute fudge.

Whichever way the Prime Minister eventually goes, she will also continue to run the risk of splitting the Conservative Party.

By Lord Flight | 4 March 2019 | 56 comments

Shanker Singham: A UK-EU free trade agreement is perfectly feasible – I’ve written one

Such deals can seem intangible and conceptual, so I and a team of experts are today launching a proposed agreement which both sides could accept.

By Shanker A.Singham | 6 February 2019 | 111 comments

Nicky Morgan: I won’t support a second referendum – even if the Government does. Here’s why.

At the heart of the disagreement between “People’s Vote” campaigners and the Norway Plus supporters is whether the 2016 result is accepted or not.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 17 December 2018 | 119 comments
