Iain Dale: “Winston Churchill gave voice to the nation’s courage and Vera Lynn gave voice to its heart”

Plus: If only the Remainers had behaved like Rashford. And: the lesson I draw from Twitter – “Immer mit der Ruhe”

Iain Dale: The Prime Minister. He gets knocked down. But he gets up again.

Plus: Will the 21 rebels get the whip back? And: The Tories need younger members, and so does everyone else.

Adonis encouraged his fans to hate Brexiteers. And now they hate him.

For some reason he appears to be surprised at the reaction to his switch of position.

Widdecombe to top the Brexit Party’s South-West region list

The news was apparently lined up by the party to be announced later today.  But she appears to have jumped the gun.

Iain Dale: The Prime Minister put in a superb Parliamentary performance yesterday

Plus: But her deal’s so bad I’d rather Remain. Robbins is the real Rasputin, not Timothy. Would I really vote Tory tomorrow? And: Carry on Cocks and Dicks.

Norfolk County Council has shown how boarding school can transform the prospects for vulnerable children

Yet the efforts of other local authorities to provide such opportunities have been derisory. Ministers give speeches but the Government has failed to act.

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.

Daniel Hannan: Brexit will be a success, but swivel-eyed Remainers make the process more costly than it needs to be

The message that some send to Brussels – that if the Eurocrats make it all painful enough then we can be bullied into changing our minds – is mistaken but harmful.

By Daniel Hannan MEP | 15 March 2018 | 422 comments

The Brexit negotiation. Raindrops keep falling on May’s head. But that doesn’t mean her eyes will soon be turning red.

Rebecca Lowe: If May’s review is to be meaningful, it must shatter the illusion that all universities are equal

She will, today, talk of “identify[ing] ways to help young people make more effective choices when they leave school”. This could be promising.

By Rebecca Lowe | 19 February 2018 | 85 comments

A bit of romantic rhetoric from Brussels cannot change the fact that their only offers – before and after we voted Leave – have been provocatively unacceptable.
