Trudy Harrison and Mark Jenkinson: It’s time for another ‘epoch making moment’ for nuclear power

A proper commitment to British technological advancement would create jobs and boost skills – but above all, saves our communities.

Will Holloway: The Government can show it’s serious about levelling up by launching a National Plan for Manufacturing

It could take action to reduce industrial electricity costs, among other important steps.

Houchen. He’s patriotic. Even more importantly – he delivers.

Labour isn’t focused on the second, preferring to blame others for problems, and too many of its activists aren’t the first, either.

Gavin Rice: The Conservative campaign in Hartlepool kicks off today. But will Johnson deliver for his new working class voters?

The calling-in of a planning application to open a coalmine at Whitehaven suggests prioritising green optics over Northern livelihoods.

Neil O’Brien: Five lessons from the pandemic

It’s striking that the countries that did best during Covid are those, like Taiwan and South Korea, which live under threat of annihilation by their neighbours.

Ted Christie-Miller: Everything must change if Britain is to hit its Net Zero target. How are we going to manage it?

If politicians are going to take voters with them, we need to be honest about the trade offs and develop policies to help those who stand to lose out.

Most Tory MPs will be seeing large increases in the housing targets for their seats, while many Labour MPs see their local targets reduced.

I hesitate to disagree with Daniel Finkelstein, but city growth has been powered more by smalltown commuters than flat-cap wearing uber-boheminans.

Neil O’Brien: Like fax machines, pagers and your old macarena CD, it’s time to bin the 1990s

The ideas of that decade are still with us, staggering around like a zombie in a garish “Global Hypercolor” t-shirt.

Liam Fox: League tables, death rates, bed numbers – and other mistaken media measurements. Let’s stick to the facts.

Often, these are not only hugely inaccurate, but paint a damagingly distorted picture which can influence public opinion and, through doing so, public policy.

James Blagden: How to level up – and get growth going across the whole of the country
