The Prime Minister is being urged to employ more women, but here is one who already makes it difficult for him to get away with sloppy thinking.

Anwari Ali: The Government must dissuade vulnerable Muslims from fasting this Ramadan

Those with Chronic Kidney Disease, diabetes and high blood pressure must be protected.

Trevor Phillips: What’s driving Labour’s unjust suspension of my membership? Could it be a cynical ploy to put pressure on the Tories?

This would be the very definition of political corruption – using the party’s influence to intimidate a legally independent institution would be reprehensible.

Daniel Hannan: Identity politics threatens modern civilisation

It is a reversion to the old tribal idea: this people good, that people bad. It challenges the notion that we are all individuals, responsible for our own behaviour.

Sunder Katwala: The Conservatives, ethnic minority voters, and the election. Next to no progress.

Not being white remains the number one demographic predictor of not voting Tory.

Andrew Wood: Understanding why we lost in East London

We must do more to dispel the fears held by Muslims and EU citizens. Also important is boosting the right to buy.

Mohammed Amin: I don’t like the term “Islamophobia”. But since we’re stuck with it, here’s my own definition.

I have intentionally used the structure of the IHRA definition of anti-semitism, since it has become an industry standard.

Rachel Wolf: The Birmingham schools gay relationships row. Religious conservatives won’t like it, but government must take a stand.

You can’t ignore the existence of couples and families that you’ve actively supported in legislation.

Daniel Hannan: The Johnson tape, the Field incident. So much was said about both. But why the silence about the Kirklees arrests?

The investigation, after all, concerns the systematic rape of underage girls. The non-reaction to it says much about our culture and times.

Dean Godson: There are plenty of ideas on the centre-right. Here’s how it can create a new, decent, patriotric consensus.

Despite polarisation on Brexit, there is more agreement among voters than often appears – and therefore more cause for optimism.

Mohammed Amin: How the Conservative Party should fix its Muslim problem

The first in a mini-series of three pieces on this site about anti-Muslim prejudice – and what the Government and Party should do about it.
