Carswell. Energetic, honest – and with no idea of how the world actually works

Send Stuart to the Lords, and Carswell to…Downing Street

This election follows a referendum that strained, and in some cases shattered, party loyalties. The Prime Minister ought now to be building her own big tent.

Arise, Sir Nigel of ConservativeHome

Lewis Baston: By-elections – and what has happened in those in which the MP has resigned his seat

The story of who won (like David Davis). And who lost (like Zac Goldsmith).

By Lewis Baston | 9 December 2016

Banks moves to launch a competitor to UKIP – threatening to do serious damage to the People’s Army

Chris Stevens: Working alongside Conservatives in the referendum campaign convinced me I should join them
