Profile: Singapore, the city state mistakenly held out by Eurosceptics as an example for Britain to follow

Conservatives ought to know without being told that one cannot just take a glance round the world, see which culture one likes the look of, and graft it onto one’s own.

By Andrew Gimson | 9 January 2019 | 17 comments

Andrew Green: The new Immigration White Paper. Not just damaging, but a disaster – both for control and the Conservatives

Others would say that the appointment of a profoundly business-friendly Home Secretary was bound to lead to a weakening of immigration policy.

By Lord Green | 4 January 2019 | 202 comments

Peter Lilley: The Government’s Chequers plan is the Single Market by another name

We should not be tied to rules that often apply extreme versions of the precautionary principle that throttle new developments.

By Lord Lilley | 22 October 2018 | 50 comments

Hunt looks east to Japan…and west to Canada

Charlotte Salomon: Is it time to let the high street die?

Big retail hasn’t adapted to the new world of e-commerce after 20 years – and it’s doubtful whether it ever will.

By Charlotte Salomon | 9 September 2018 | 68 comments

Lockwood Smith: Britain has a golden chance to join the biggest free trade agreement in history. But Chequers is likely to wreck it.

The “Common Rulebook” approach is an ostacle to signing up to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership.

By Sir Lockwood Smith | 17 August 2018 | 120 comments

Tom Bennett: A new, liberalised immigration system should free young people to travel the world

It is absurd that every year we send home thousands of young Australians who would prefer to stay here, and Australia does the same with thousands of young Brits.

By Tom Bennett | 31 July 2018 | 88 comments

Ed Hall: Yes, a No Deal Armageddon will deliver chaos – to French farmers, German car makers, Italian designers and Spanish property owners

Alex Morton: Scrapping coins and squeezing cash would be an assault on our own voters

By Alex Morton | 21 March 2018 | 71 comments

David Campbell Bannerman: Why EFTA wouldn’t work for Britain

We don’t need a European solution; we need a global solution. We must think independent Anglosphere, not dependent Eurosphere.

By David Campbell Bannerman MEP | 17 February 2018 | 155 comments

David Davies: Now that we’re leaving the EU, we must also quit the European Arrest Warrant

The EAW is based on the flawed presumption of judicial parity between European nations. The UK should forge a new partnership where this is actually the case.

By David Davies MP | 21 January 2018 | 93 comments

Owen Paterson: Why are we so insular, unimaginative and inward-looking about healthcare? Europe’s systems are better than the NHS.

In a whole host of countries – Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, the Netherlands, Portugal, Switzerland – A&E waiting times are typically under an hour.

By Owen Paterson MP | 6 January 2018 | 161 comments

Owen Paterson: To make Brexit a success, we must break free from the over-taxed, over-regulated European model

By Owen Paterson MP | 19 December 2017 | 224 comments

Stephen Hammond: How to solve the Brexit access-versus-control dilemma

By Stephen Hammond MP | 17 December 2017 | 54 comments

Sanjoy Sen: Nudged out of a gas-guzzler, I’m an environmentalist’s dream. But how much difference does switching to hybrids make?

Whatever else unfolds in the coming years, we need to look near and far for learnings and solutions to our emissions challenges.

By Sanjoy Sen | 31 October 2017 | 34 comments
