Alexander Temerko: The relationship between business and government has never been as meaningless as under May

The key to a good Brexit is empowering UK entrepreneurs to talk to their European counterparts and become ambassadors for Downing Street’s plan.

George Freeman: There was much to cheer in the Budget. But now we need an inspiring programme for growth.

At the moment, we are treading water and appear to be relying on popular support for Brexit, and the threat of Corbyn, to keep us in office.

Peter Lilley: The Government’s Chequers plan is the Single Market by another name

We should not be tied to rules that often apply extreme versions of the precautionary principle that throttle new developments.

Stephen Booth: Why No Deal will only shave a small slice off growth – if we act wisely over the medium-term

Brexit won’t be the most important factor shaping our growth over the next decade or so, whether we leave with an agreement or without one.

Henry Newman: Now the Government must promote Chequers – which, though not perfect, is at least practicable

For far, far too long Downing Street dithered and delayed crucial decisions. Ministers need to commit to selling the agreed policy before its too late.

Alex Morton: Britain can most effectively gain global influence by governing herself well

Forget delusions of grandeur, memories of empire, or fantasies of running an EU superstate – let’s focus on setting a good example.

Andrew Lilico: Forget the Irish Sea border. If we must have a backstop, how about a Celtic Sea border instead?

If there must be checks on goods leaving the island of Ireland, is it not more natural that they take place crossing the border where checks on persons already occur?

Leigh Higgins: Post-Chequers, we need to explain more clearly what leaving the EU will now look like

We must ensure that, just as the UK voted Leave to take back control, local people take back control themselves.

Nick Boles and Robert Syms: One of us was a Remainer, the other a Leaver. We join now with other Tory MPs to back Theresa May.

Any Cabinet member who throws their toys out of the pram at Chequers will receive a cold shoulder in the tearoom.

Jonathan Glanz: All buildings should be clearly identified – with the street number displayed

With the surge in the delivery economy this rule would boost growth. It would also help the emergency services – and those canvassing during election campaigns.

Stephen Booth: Our Brexit proposal. Integrate for goods, diverge for services.

This type of relationship would reflect the existing pattern of UK-EU trade. It is a compromise that should win support amongst pragmatists.

Stephen Booth: A possible Cabinet Brexit compromise is brewing. It would mean mirroring parts of the Customs Union.

When ministers meet at Chequers this week, they must find a solution to the seemingly intractable question of whether to align or diverge from the EU.

‘Partial’ customs union means paying a high price to be stuck in EU limbo

But a vote on some form of customs union is coming. Might it become a confidence issue?

Graham Evans: The Government needs a strong hospitality champion

This sector is a hugely important source of growth, tax revenues, and skilled jobs, but needs a supportive policy framework to really thrive.

James Arnell: Ready on Day One for Brexit. 1) Money. If there’s no deal, and the EU fails to play fair, we shouldn’t pay it a penny.

I would propose that we pay a total of €12 billion as our “divorce bill” – even if there’s no FTA. But subject to three conditions.
