Chris Whiteside: I’ve worked for BT for over 30 years. Here’s my take on why Labour’s broadband plan would destroy the industy.

It is capitalising on voters who weren’t born in the era of state monopolies having no idea how much worse these companies were under Corbyn’s dinosaur model.

Ryan Bourne: Why billionaries are a sign of a fair society

It stretches credulity to just assume that rent-seeking or uncompetitive markets account for all British top wealth.

By Ryan Bourne | 13 November 2019 | 21 comments

Johnson the negotiator has been more robust than May – but less instransigent

By being so scornful, his critics have set a low bar for him. We are about to see whether he can astonish them by bounding over it.

Neil O’Brien: Corbynomics – and why it means that your house, business and savings don’t really belong to you

In his eyes, you have them only as long as the Government suffers you to have them, and they can be retrospectively taken away if he sees fit.

By Neil O Brien MP | 9 September 2019 | 72 comments

Conservatism is better than liberalism – and Putin much, much worse than either

What he detests is less liberalism than democracy, and the obstacle it poses to Russian foreign policy objectives.

In praise of Conservative Party members

“Spot on” policy questions to Johnson and Hunt in Birmingham yesterday showed Tory activists as they really are.

Robert Halfon: Mythbusting Common Market 2.0

It would increase our power to control freedom of movement, plus our laws and finances – and deliver on the referendum result.

By Robert Halfon MP | 27 March 2019 | 71 comments

The British economy has survived so many crises that it can surely survive Brexit

William Keegan’s memoir describes with ebullient good humour how he covered half a century of bad news.

Merkel will rescue the Prime Minister. Where have we heard that before?

The German Chancellor was stronger then than she is now. And there’s no guarantee that any compromise she might push would work.

Lord Ashcroft: The Tory MPs who say “they have sent in letters they haven’t”. Or “withdrawn letters they never sent”.

Brady reports no confidence moves against May that might not be no confidence moves at all.

By Lord Ashcroft | 3 October 2018 | 22 comments

Like Hague, I voted Remain. But he is wrong to condemn Johnson, Davis and Rees-Mogg. Here is why.

His attack on the Brexiteers as Romantics runs the risk of dismissing the EU referendum as a fraud.

By Andrew Gimson | 11 July 2018 | 385 comments

The Brexit negotiation and the Government’s position. There is a glimmer of light.

Davis may not have got all he wanted on the backstop. But for the second time in a few months, he has nudged May forwards. It is high time she made the most of him.

James Frayne: Cummings is right about voter backlash against a Brexit betrayal

Votes would come flooding back into UKIP and, perhaps more importantly, to independent candidates that campaign on the “You Lied” platform.

By James Frayne | 29 May 2018 | 329 comments

Interview. The Brexit negotiation – Dodds warns against the “annexation” of Northern Ireland

The DUP’s Westminster Leader says the Irish border issue is being exploited by people who want “to thwart leaving the EU if they can”.

By Andrew Gimson | 25 April 2018 | 175 comments

James Frayne: To contest big state ideas, small state conservatives need to get to grips with the detail

They must also rediscover the interests of the consumer – and be better at engaging working class voters on social issues.
