Macron and others played politics with AstraZeneca. The consequences for many EU citizens are fatal.

Some leaders realise the seriousness of the problem. Merkel’s spokesman has pleaded with Germans to take the “safe and highly effective” jab.

By Charlotte Gill | 24 February 2021

Why was there no reference to Islamist extremism in Johnson’s terror speech?

Perhaps the answer is bound up with China – and our inability to focus on more than a single problem at once.

By Paul Goodman | 21 February 2021

Garvan Walshe: We can be sure that those who have been vaccinated won’t die of Covid. So the case for lockdowns is vanishing fast.

It’s one thing to endure them to prevent people dying, and for a relatively short period of time; quite another because we might return to this situation.

John Penrose: We can cut costs while maintaining standards to deliver better regulation

The good news is that if we can break out of our recent rut, the opportunities for post-Brexit Britain to cut red tape should be huge.

By John Penrose MP | 16 February 2021 | 14 comments

Mattie Heaven: Iran’s government is a terrorist regime. British Ministers must face this truth – and act on it.

Maintaining the current diplomatic relations would be a devastating mistake – potentially with fatal consequences.

Anthony Browne: Why the UK’s fall in GDP is not the worst of the G7, but in the middle

Opposition politicians are wrong in their assessment of the country’s economic response to Covid.

By Anthony Browne MP | 13 February 2021 | 17 comments

David Gauke: Ten years for lying on a form. Disproportionate – and characteristic of our cavalier approach to sentencing.

If we impose yet more draconian prison sentences to win a political arms race, the burdens on the taxpayer will become unsustainable.

By David Gauke | 13 February 2021 | 63 comments

Julian Gallant: Politics can support the arts without disturbing the artist

It has a constructive role to play, supporting artistic creativity without interfering with content.

By Julian Gallant | 12 February 2021 | 14 comments

Kristian Niemietz: What difference does the size of the state make to how is deals with Covid? None.

If it were the critical factor, Belgium should have been superbly prepared for the pandemic. Alas, it was not.

By Kristian Niemietz | 9 February 2021 | 22 comments

Ryan Bourne: How many lives will we save by choosing our own vaccination programme, not the EU’s? Let’s start at nine thousand.

It’s safe to say the UK will have saved tens of thousands of additional lives relative to going at the EU-4’s pace over the coming months.

By Ryan Bourne | 3 February 2021 | 19 comments

Instead of EU vaccine nationalism, let’s have UK vaccine internationalism

As Johnson put it yesterday: “we can’t think of this just as a project for us and us alone”.

By Paul Goodman | 1 February 2021 | 96 comments

Neil O’Brien: Trumpism in Britain. It’s time to call out those in the media who cynically feed the cranks, rioters and conspiracists.

One of our best selling papers recently ran a piece promoting the views of an “NHS worker” who claimed hospitals were “empty” and Covid was a “hoax”.

By Neil O Brien MP | 11 January 2021 | 121 comments

John Jenkins: The UK still has much to learn from our European allies on dealing with Islamism

France and Austria in particular show that a much more vigorous and coherent defence of the liberal democratic model is both possible and necessary.

By Sir John Jenkins | 8 January 2021 | 33 comments

Vaccine strategies in Europe. France battles anti-vaxxers, while Merkel is blamed for procurement failures.

Both countries have had difficulties accelerating the speed at which they vaccinate. So what factors have been to blame?

By Charlotte Gill | 7 January 2021 | 12 comments

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 | 16 comments
