Brandon To: Mel Stride is right about growth but now we have to build the networks and ecosystems to deliver it

Kemi begins her purge of the wets

Every functioning party has red lines. Positions which are so central to its identity that abandoning them means abandoning what the party is for. For Kemi Badenoch and the Conservatives, net zero and the ECHR are exactly that kind of question. They are not technical policy disputes to be settled by internal debate.

Peter Franklin: Yes, there is a moral case against taxing wealth

In a global economy, capital doesn't sit still. It moves to where it attracts the highest returns and/or is subject to the lowest taxes.

Anna Ridgway: The Burnham coronation has two problems nobody in Westminster wants to discuss

The country is about to make a man Prime Minister when his own people cannot say what he believes. That is not the profile of a leader. It is the profile of a brand.

Emma Schubart: The IRGC’s proscription is welcome – but words must now become consequences

The IRGC's proscription is a victory, for the dissidents it has hunted, the journalists it has stabbed, and the British Jews it has stalked. But the law is only as strong as its enforcement. Having finally found the courage to name the IRGC as what it is, ministers must now find the courage to act on every consequence that follows, on our streets, and on our campuses.

But it does it really work? The post Calum Davies: Is Burnham really ready to govern and are we ready for what he wants to do? appeared first on Conservative Home.
