Ben Jeffreys: Scrap tuition fees. Fairer school funding. Votes at 16. How the Tories can win young people’s support.

Increasingly, the Conservatives are seen as protecting the interests of those who have acquired wealth by their old age.

By Ben Jeffreys | 23 June 2017 | 196 comments

May’s Calendar Girl Queen’s Speech

A lot on Brexit; not much elsewhere. The lack of a majority leaves the Prime Minister exposed – whatever may happen with the DUP.

By Paul Goodman | 21 June 2017 | 168 comments

Margot James: We need to make the case for wealth creation to a new generation of young people

Labour’s handouts must be exposed as a self-defeating deception – as must the danger of what happens when “there is no money left”.

By Margot James | 11 June 2017 | 222 comments

Daniel Hannan: Don’t let Labour muck it up

Deep down, Corbyn regrets the outcome of the Cold War. Even now, when the full horror of its legacy is clear, he can’t bring himself to renounce Marxism.

By Daniel Hannan MEP | 8 June 2017 | 42 comments

Nicky Morgan: This is Labour’s Momentum Election – nasty, intimidating, abusive and troll-ridden

Corbyn isn’t some misguided but well-meaning old man, but a deeply committed socialist intent on crashing our economy.

By Nicky Morgan MP | 5 June 2017 | 73 comments

James Frayne: How free marketeers should respond to May’s interventionism

Other than saying, “the state should stay out of things”, they haven’t had much to say. This must change. They need to set out how they’d do things better.

By James Frayne | 30 May 2017 | 61 comments

Nadhim Zahawi: This is not a manifesto that plays it safe. But it’s the right one for Britain.

There is a radical, ambitious zeal evident throughout the document, and it is shown again in the desire to end iniquitous disparities between the generations.

By Nadhim Zahawi MP | 29 May 2017 | 42 comments

Alice Barnard: You want better vocational education? Then drop the fixation with the EBacc.

The first part of a ConHome mini-series on the future of technical education after this general election.

By Alice Barnard | 29 May 2017 | 17 comments

Ryan Bourne: May has chosen to occupy the centre, rather than try to shift it. This bodes badly for Britain, Brexit – and the economy.

The basic principles of limited government, economic and civil liberties, freedom and equality under the law are almost entirely absent from her programme.

By Ryan Bourne | 20 May 2017 | 223 comments

We asked for Grown-Up Government. Now we’ve got it.

May’s manifesto is real politics – that’s to say, a serious attempt to prepare Britain for the post-Brexit challenges of the future.

By Paul Goodman | 19 May 2017 | 144 comments

It’s time for Conservatives to get over Thatcher, get on with May – and look forward, not back

The Prime Minister’s manifesto will have its flaws, but she has grasped the implications of Brexit more surely than any other senior politician.

By Paul Goodman | 18 May 2017 | 118 comments

The Liberal Democrat parrot. Not quick, not dead, but moulting feathers.

A key problem for Farron’s party is that Labour is competitive among young people – many of whom have not forgiven it for tuition fees.

By Paul Goodman | 17 May 2017 | 153 comments

Binita Mehta-Parmar: Five ways of gaining more ethnic minority votes for the Conservatives

There has been progress – and there are signs that many BME Labour voters are beginning to feel that their votes are being taken for granted.

By Binita Mehta-Parmar | 8 May 2017 | 26 comments

James Frayne: What are main vulnerabilities in this election for the Conservatives?

Why spend money on grammars, rather than dealing with school overcrowding? And why back Trident rather than the Navy’s conventional fleet?

By James Frayne | 2 May 2017 | 108 comments

In this election, Christians should deploy the power of the cross

That the pursuit of Farron was legitimate doesn’t mean that they, or anyone else, should feel happy about it – or the bigger trends of which it was part.
