May at the ’22. She adapts to survive.

She threw herself on the mercy of Tory MPs, and the gambit appears to have paid off – for the moment.

Nadhim Zahawi: Our policies were right. But we didn’t sell them.

Despite the outcome, our manifesto was a step in the right direction, from which we must not retreat backwards.

By Nadhim Zahawi MP | 12 June 2017 | 168 comments

CABINET RESHUFFLE: LIVE BLOG. Green is First Secretary of State – in effect, Deputy Prime Minister. And Gove is back at the top.

Gauke is uncorked as Work and Pensions Secretary. Truss replaces him as Treasury Chief Secretary. Leadsom is the new Leader of the House.

Why the Prime Minister now has no alternative but to broaden her Cabinet. Today, she should bring back Gove, Morgan and Grieve.

She is now dependent on her critics if the new goverment is to work. This is a time for humility, reconciliation – and all hands on deck.

Iain Dale: Why aren’t the Liberal Democrats doing better in these election polls?

WATCH: Davis to Conservative rebels – “Please don’t tie the Prime Minister’s hands”

May needs Hammond – so she must not abandon him as he retreats on NICs

Near the heart of a decision that both approved was a distrust of the style of politics pursued by the Chancellor’s predecessor.

Conservative MPs are not up for the challenge of reducing public spending growth

Hammond was right to postpone the date by which he aims to achieve a balanced budget. But whether or not Tory MPs really have the appetite for one is doubtful.

By Paul Goodman | 28 February 2017 | 140 comments

Nothing is more permanent than the temporary. The pluses, minuses and paradox of an interim deal.

The Chancellor suggested that thoughtful politicians incline to one. But the more thoughtful one is about it, the more problematic it looks.

Between them, May and Johnson risk endangering an orderly Brexit

Their falling-out is an open wound that risks infection.

By Paul Goodman | 9 December 2016

By Paul Goodman | 6 November 2016 | 222 comments
