Malcolm Rifkind: We need a global response to Beijing’s belligerence, inhumanity and mendacity

Tonight, a major new report will be launched by the Conservative Party Human Rights Commission, which sheds a light on Xi Jinping’s brutal regime.

By Sir Malcolm Rifkind | 13 January 2021 | 40 comments

Imran Ahmad Khan: Now is the right time for the UK to evolve a sharper and tighter foreign policy

Now more than ever, a coherent, holistic strategy is required that will unite and enhance our capabilities to advance Britain’s position in the world.

By Imran Ahmad Khan MP | 22 December 2020 | 14 comments

Benedict Rogers: Amendments to the Government’s Trade Bill can help Britain stand up to genocidal regimes

Under new proposals, bilateral trade deals with genocidal states would be revoked or prohibited.

By Benedict Rogers | 7 December 2020 | 2 comments

Stephen Booth: Brexit-related concerns about a Biden presidency are overblown. The reality is more nuanced.

From wanting to tackle climate change, to striving for greater security cooperation, the PM and US president share many of the same goals.

By Stephen Booth | 12 November 2020 | 59 comments

Damian Green: We have a chance to show the world what Conservative environmental leadership looks like

For too long, combating climate change has been characterised as a left-wing cause. But it is a battle that cannot be won without the Right.

By Damian Green MP | 5 November 2020 | 85 comments

Tobias Ellwood: The Government has helped to let Iran, a rogue state, off the leash. It’s time to rein it back in.

We should have supported an extension to the conventional arms embargo at the United Nations in August – and must back sanctions.

By Tobias Ellwood MP | 28 October 2020 | 25 comments

Rehman Chishti and Knox Thames: Freedom of religion is under threat. Trans-Atlantic efforts can combat that.

The US and UK, along with other countries in Europe, are fighting to ensure that no one is persecuted for their religious beliefs.

By Rehman Chishti and Knox Thames | 12 October 2020 | 36 comments

Robert Halfon: Delivering social justice means feeding children properly. We’re not doing so – and we must.

The Government’s own calculations of welfare payments do not cost in the provision of a healthy diet.

By Robert Halfon MP | 7 October 2020 | 14 comments

Julian Brazier: The future of the Army – and why Haldane’s approach remains the best.

His instinct to bring together various reserves to create a ‘Second Line’ was crucial in the First World War; leaders today should take inspiration.

By Julian Brazier | 30 September 2020 | 15 comments

Bernard Jenkin: If necessary, we must pass legislation that will nullify the direct effect and direct applicability of EU laws

It may be good tough talk to speak of breaking international law, but it does not engender respect.  His exact words were not even factually correct. 

By Sir Bernard Jenkin MP | 11 September 2020 | 110 comments

Tom Tugendhat: It’s time for the Government to stand with its allies – and stand up to Iran

To do so would mean more than staying in step with Trump. For no US administration could accept being bound into a UN system without a veto.

By Tom Tugendhat MP | 26 August 2020 | 32 comments

Allowing illegal migrant boats to cross the Channel is false compassion

The greater the incentives for people traffickers, the more lives will be lost. The Australian approach is morally right.

By Harry Phibbs | 12 August 2020 | 252 comments

Rob Sutton: Dame Barbara Woodward ­– An appointee who can test the limits of British influence at the UN

She has the skill, experience and support to be a key voice as we seek a renewed national identity amidst a decaying rules-based international order.

By Dr Rob Sutton | 7 August 2020 | 14 comments

Hugo de Burgh: We owe it to future generations of Brits to work with China

It is our third largest market – we must work with it if we are to help resolve global problems from the environment to nuclear proliferation.

By Hugo de Burgh | 6 July 2020 | 91 comments

Charlotte Leslie: A defining test looms abroad for post-Brexit Britain. Will we act if Netanyahu annexes part of the West Bank?

Or will Britain trade in its global reputation for lawfulness in exchange for keeping Trump sweet for trade?

By Charlotte Leslie | 22 June 2020 | 138 comments
