Eight per cent of Party members would join a new Metropolitan Party

And 84 per cent would not.

The Conservative Party becomes a broad coalition again – or it dies

The text of my speech from yesterday evening’s debate on the future of the centre-right with Matthew Parris.

Who should lead the Metropolitan Party?

It has plenty of supporters among Conservative journalists. But why not among Conservative politicians?

Heresy of the week: “Tattoo-parlour Britain” isn’t the alternative to liberal Britain, but its by-product
