Ben Southwood: The Government’s housing plans need to be refined – not scrapped. They will work if the detail is got right.

These figures will change substantially in the final version of the algorithm, especially because it will take into account green belt restrictions.

Neil O’Brien: The next algorithm disaster – coming to a Conservative constituency near you. This time, it’s housing growth.

Most Tory MPs will be seeing large increases in the housing targets for their seats, while many Labour MPs see their local targets reduced.

Robert Goodwill: Why grouse shooting matters for moorland communities

Maintaining the moors is not just about sport. It has wider environmental, economic, and social benefits – even for those who have never picked up a gun.

Profile: York – and its potential role as Parliament’s new home, a Johnson joke which could become serious

Hoyle and Fowler are deeply opposed to the move, but Labour voters in the North of England like the sound of it.

Andrew Mitchell: I used to be adamantly opposed to all forms of assisted dying. Here’s why I’ve changed my mind.

By the end of these meetings, I was invariably left with the overwhelming feelings that we would not let an animal we loved be treated in such a way.

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.

Alexander Stafford: PPE – and how our throwaway culture is endangering our national security

The production of reusable PPE in such places as Rother Valley would tie in with the North’s vital role in the UK’s green recovery.

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.

John Fareham: The Humberside mindset must go

It was a failed county. An abomination of the 1972 Local Government Act. Yet bureaucrats keep trying to revive it by stealth.

Neil O’Brien: So you want to level up. In what way? And how will you do it?

Measuring people’s incomes needs to be part of measuring progress – but we need to be careful, because different measures give different results.

Carol Matthews: We need fairer investment and supply to level up housing in the North

In the second piece in our mini-series, the Chair of Homes for the North argues that driving public investment in housing towards the South East is not sustainable.

Rachel Wolf: Where education reform has succeeded – and where it has failed

The parents we have most consistently let down are those we have not empowered to demand more for their children. That must change.

Sunder Katwala: The Conservatives, ethnic minority voters, and the election. Next to no progress.

Not being white remains the number one demographic predictor of not voting Tory.

Andrew Smith: The next Conservative Government can deliver for the North by investing in regeneration.

I hope that we will see more of the Chancellor during the campaign explaining how his plans can help support investment to boost productivity.

Jason Aldiss: Conservatives can only win from the centre ground. Which means Hunt as leader – not a lurch to the right under Johnson.

If Brexit really must happen, then better to be frank about the impossibility of renegotiating the deal, or exiting without one.
