Ze’ev Portner: The Conservatives could win over lifelong Labour voters, like me, by championing those trapped on low wages

Middle class Corbynistas are more concerned with the rights of Palestinians than they are with working conditions to be found in an Amazon warehouse in Staffordshire.

By Ze'ev Portner | 13 June 2018 | 50 comments

Patrick Spencer and Gerard Lyons: Yes, the British jobs story is a good one – but we can’t count on it carrying on forever

A report published by the Centre for Social Justice today outlines four major traps that could jeopardise Britain’s employment miracle.

By Patrick Spencer and Gerard Lyons | 3 June 2018 | 16 comments

James Frayne: Onward, the new think-tank, is rightly focused on what matters to provincial Britain

It would be easy, but mistaken, to take the path of least resistance and simply re-enact the dated Cameron ‘modernising’ agenda.

By James Frayne | 22 May 2018 | 70 comments

Philip Booth: Why the Universal Basic Income is a very bad idea

Money would go from one person through a bureaucracy to another person in the same household – who probably holds a joint bank account with the first person.

By Philip Booth | 20 May 2018 | 19 comments

Charlotte Salomon: Young people are a long-term investment – but a good one

They need time and resources spent on preparing them for employment and for life – and for their Government to adapt as quickly as they are doing.

By Charlotte Salomon | 11 May 2018 | 48 comments

Neil O’Brien: We Conservatives need to refresh ourselves to stop Corbyn. That’s why Onward is being launched.

Even in lefty France, socialist policies are now being dumped by Emmanuel Macron in favour of free markets. Now is the time to develop our next round of big ideas.

By Neil O Brien MP | 23 April 2018 | 66 comments

Robert Halfon: Ministers should value the Open University no less than Oxbridge. And the latter should open up to apprenticeships.

What is the objective of higher education if it does not play a major role in addressing our country’s skills deficit?

By Robert Halfon MP | 11 April 2018 | 40 comments

James Frayne: The local elections – and why London modernisation won’t work for provincial Britain

They want to know that their political leaders aren’t racist or judgemental or stuck in a 1950s parody – but they aren’t interested in hearing about these ideas primarily.

By James Frayne | 10 April 2018 | 58 comments

Simon Clarke: Teesside is experiencing an industrial renaissance – with Conservative optimism driving out Labour gloom

The first in a three-part ConHome mini-series on the Tory revival in the area since the Mayoral election of last May.

By Simon Clarke MP | 10 April 2018 | 31 comments

Nicky Morgan: A stark truth. We’re not doing well enough among women. Here’s how we can do better.

Unless we find a way to win over those in their forties, thirties and younger, we will have an even bigger problem at the next election.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 9 April 2018 | 273 comments

Nicky Morgan: There’s good news to tell on jobs and growth. Let’s make more of it.

There is a suspicion that the Government wants to talk about other things – and a significant amount of attention is of course already being consumed by Brexit.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 26 March 2018 | 74 comments

Ryan Henson: How to improve opportunities for white working-class boys – and get more on the Tory benches too

Research shows that investment in the early years of a child’s life is the most effective way to improve his or her long-term life chances.

By Cllr Ryan Henson | 19 March 2018 | 55 comments

What should Tories tax? 2) Robert Halfon: We must focus on the lower-paid and the cost of living

Unless we change how we think, speak and apply lower taxes, the Labour cry of ‘tax cuts for the rich’ will remain a powerful slogan.

By Robert Halfon MP | 28 February 2018 | 74 comments

Patrick Minford: More compliance. Lower productivity. Reduced growth. Why we must free ourselves from EU regulation.

If we do, we could reverse at least some of the six per cent hit to GDP it has caused so far. If we don’t, we could continue to lose productivity growth of 0.2 per cent a year.

By Patrick Minford | 5 February 2018 | 320 comments

Thomas Hogg: Let’s get a sense of perspective. May must stay – and here’s why.

I finish by imploring you to consider the effect on our Brexit negotiations if we change negotiators half way through.

By Thomas Hogg | 5 February 2018 | 140 comments
