Robert Halfon: Britain is now a moderate social democratic state

Whether moderate right Conservative, or moderate left, austerity is dead, and this new age will be with us for a long time to come.

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

We can’t continue to favour projects such as Crossrail over developing infrastructure in other parts of the country which generate much greater relative returns.

Ryan Bourne: The core challenge that Johnson’s Government won’t face up to. Boosting growth.

Ministers have been asked to push the Government’s priorities – tackling crime, funding the NHS, “levelling up”. How can these be effected without faster growth?

Neil O’Brien: R & D. We invest disproportionately in the first at the expense of the second. Here’s how to improve.

This imbalance is driven by the core science budget: the Research Councils (which fund projects) and Quality Related “QR” funding, which universities allocate.

Ben Brittain: Get Brexit Done and innovate like Israel

Its success in innovative industries is based on an R&D-intensive, novel-product-based, export-oriented business model. One that the UK should adopt.

Dean Godson: What Johnson should do now in this Government’s first hundred days

In his foreword to our new Policy Exchange paper, John Howard urges the Prime Minister to “seize the moment”.

Rachel Wolf: I co-wrote this Conservative manifesto. And so can say that its focus was on neither the rich nor the poor.

To view Britain in such a way is to see a useless picture of the nation. Most people are Just About Managing. And they are our new voters.

Tom Clougherty: Unless Labour resorts to printing money, higher income tax, NI or VAT are coming – for the many, not the few

That’s a legitimate political agenda, and people are quite welcome to vote for it. But they deserve to know what’s coming.

Ted Christie-Miller and Richard Howard: How to deliver net zero emissions by 2050 without damaging the economy

Party leaders face uncomfortable truths as they prepare for the Leaders’ Climate Debate later today.

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.

George Freeman: Our new book. In which forty Tory MPs band together to help revive conservatism.

Britain Beyond Brexit, a New Conservative Vision for a New Generation, is published today by the CPS.

Iain Mansfield: We have nothing to fear from No Deal

It would bring with it many compensations, including regulatory freedom, tariff income and £39 billion of cold, hard cash.

Nick Hargrave: The capitalism of the future demands a bigger role for the state

Its muscular power is needed to boost share ownership, build houses and tax wealth rather than income. And let’s rule out a No Deal Brexit.

Joel Charles: After May’s conference speech and Hammond’s Budget, opportunity must be our core objective

We have a habit of looking back at policy platforms pursued by previous Conservative Governments, and attempting to bring back popular policies like a poor Hollywood remake.

Dan Lambeth: Why research and development tax credits work

The debate has come to symbolise much of what differentiates us from the Left: robust policy based on evidence that supports free markets, versus dogma based on statism.
