A Budget with a message for Conservative MPs. Nice little seat you have there. Pity if anything happened to it.

In sum, Hammond said: vote for May’s Deal – or the economy gets it. But there’s more than one way of dicing the next election result.

Rosalind Beck: Why the CPS and Onward plans for housing sales to private tenants are wrong

If anti-private landlord agendas are allowed to shape Government policy, things will only get worse for them and for their tenants alike.

Tom Smith: The private rented sector is in need of reform. Conservatives should lead the way.

The Government should legislate to make it illegal for estate agents to refuse to offer their services to people purely on the basis that they are in receipt of benefits.

Robert Colvile: The boost to home ownership that would come from Help to Own – and the work we’ve been doing on it

Alex Morton and the rest of our research team have spent weeks crunching the numbers to ensure that they stack up

Nick Hargrave: Cameron’s modernisation was necessary then. And an updated version is necessary now.

When you’re worried about your child’s school, politicians look remote when they sound more interested in acronym bingo on whether we should look more like Canada or Norway.

Neil O’Brien: New homes. It’s time to make developers pay their fair share for infrastructure.

New research out today calculates that granting a piece of land planning permission for new houses makes it dramatically more valuable.

The Treasury donkey

The irony is that Hammond is appallingly placed to persuade voters that No Deal really does carry risks.

James Kanagasooriam: The Conservatives have no secure future as a governing party unless they win many more ethnic minority votes

The good news is that there is an enormous opportunity for the Party – because it is much worse at converting people considering voting Blue into actual voters.

Rosalind Beck: The Government’s attack on private landlords is misguided

Unfair tax increases and restrictions will reduce the housing supply and make homelessness worse.

What Brokenshire is up to as Communities Secretary, sorry, Housing Secretary, sorry, Communities Secretary

He wants to take people with him in his quest to hit the Government’s target. But will radical policy ideas fit with his emollient political approach?

Will Tanner: Our three-point plan to build more houses and boost home ownership

Onward proposes helping half a million young people by lending them a deposit in the same way that government underwrites some of their mortgage costs.

Bob Seely: My housing challenge to think tanks. Devise a strategy that will prize social justice above economic liberalism.

In my constituency, we have a target of just over 640 homes a year. Our housing waiting list is 3,000.

Peter Franklin: Physician, heal thyself; think tanks, re-think thyselves

Onward seems set to propound the liberal and Freer the libertarian versions of the globalist agenda. Where does that leave the anti-globalist voters who now back the Tories?

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.

Nicky Morgan: As Onward launches today, Number Ten needs to give us all something to hope for

The Government should consider setting up a domestic policy Cabinet sub-committee to help alleviate the Brexit bandwidth problem.
