Neil O’Brien: Here are three urgent responses to China’s growing power – which we will soon have an opportunity to make

The Integrated Review of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy gives us the chance to act coherently and effectively.

Neil O’Brien: Introducing the new Levelling Up Taskforce – and its first report on how we can measure progress

So how do we get more good, high-paying jobs into poorer areas? One specific opportunity relevant in a lot of Red Wall seats is advanced manufacturing.

Morgan Schondelmeier: State-directed research is no substitute for the marketplace of ideas

The Government is proposing to plough £800 million into copying an idea the US abandoned decades ago. It won’t work.

Tris Dyson: Challenge prizes can incentivise British breakthroughs and new British industries

The Government has huge ambitions for UK science and innovation. Rethinking how to motivate inventors will take the country far.

Neil O’Brien: No, more economic prosperity doesn’t depend on more social liberalism

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

Alan Mak: Reform capital allowances and R&D tax credits to fire up investment and create jobs

This is the second in a three-part series on how to boost our economy after Coronavirus.

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.

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.
