Who might replace Green?

Any new First Secretary of State should not have further ambitions of their own. And it would be pointless in any event to make any such appointment honorary.

Which was stronger? Cameron’s first Cabinet? Or the current one? Views, please.

Cameron or May? Clegg or Green? Osborne or Hammond? Hague or Johnson? May or Rudd? Fox or Williamson? Cable or Clark…

Sir Edward Leigh: The Government’s refusal to respond to the Opposition’s welfare motion undermines Parliament

We backed Brexit to make those in power more accountable. The House of Commons must not be ignored as if it were a mere debating society.

Alex Morton: A modest proposal. Quotas to help another disadvantaged minority – Conservatives.

We have allowed our enemies to infiltrate almost every power centre that matters and delegitimise our very existence.

WATCH: May on her reshuffle – “I’ve brought in talent from across the Conservative Party”

The Prime Minister says that she intends to serve a full term and is “getting on with the immediate job”.

Adapt to survive. How May must share power with her Cabinet, Tory MPs, Party members and the Commons.

Davidson should have a standing invite to attend Political Cabinet, and be encouraged to speak her mind – on Brexit, the DUP and anything else.

Alex Morton: May’s reform agenda will fail if it is driven from Downing Street alone

Placing every single decision in the hands of a tiny group is not a viable long-term strategy, but a recipe for total (nervous) breakdown.

Alex Morton: May must keep the Conservative coalition of liberals, Tories and others together

If she tries to work through populist edicts and diktats, she will fail. And if the Right argues that a few tax cuts for the richest will solve our problems, this will be no better.

James Frayne: Can one tell in advance if a Minister will be culled in a reshuffle?

There is a handful of Ministers who unfortunately display two or three of these signs. They know who they are – and so does Theresa May.

James Frayne: Did Cameron and Osborne push the case for Uber? Let’s hope so.

Ultimately, happiness derives from things outside the state’s control. To the extent they can, politicians should encourage businesses that deliver them.

“What do Cabinet Ministers do all day?”

Theresa May’s austere approach to news management is a plus for government – at least, so far. But it’s turning out to be a minus for her ministers.

Kieron O’Hara: Why does the Left hate Trump? After all, in some ways he’s one of them.

See his support for protectionism, big government, big debts – and more.

Alex Morton: Effective government comes first, delivering Brexit second – not the other way round. Here’s proof of why.

The tale of the Troubled Families programme helps to prove that if the state doesn’t work properly, we won’t gain from leaving the EU.

May needs fixers

The combination of a small majority, radical intent, a flow of power one way to Cabinet Ministers and another to key aides requires adjustment.

Alex Morton: The Left builds third party support. If May can’t do so too, her government will fail.

Officials, advisers and Ministers will always need external expertise: what we need are conservative-minded experts.
