In the 2024 election, Labour were absolutely unequivocal: “Would you ever rejoin the EU or the single market?” “No.” Less than two years into Government, and they are taking us back into large parts of the Single Market, this time entirely as a rule-taker.

The regrettable truth about the crustacean die offs is that many of those pushing the dredging theory were never going to accept the findings of the independent scientists unless they ruled in their favour, as this BBC footage makes clear.

It’s a £10 billion scandal. Onward has investigated the extra payments that welfare claimants can receive because of their eligibility for their regular benefits, known as passported benefits. For the first time, we reveal the shocking cost - and how it disincentivises work.

I believe in personal freedom. Smoking is really bad for you. But it’s already illegal for children to smoke. And I believe grown adults should be trusted to make their own choices. If we ban smoking for the next generation, what is to stop us banning alcohol? Red meat? 1/2

Delighted to announce Onward are partnering officially with the Conservatives on the housing questions of the Party’s policy review. We’ll be supporting Kevin Hollinrake MP to come up with the best answers. Let's make the centre-right the home of the builders again!

While Darren Jones for Labour pretended most illegal immigrants are women and children, and Zia for Reform rambled about having cross phone calls with the French government, I set out on BBC Question Time why we need to fix the perverse incentives driving Channel crossings… This is why Kemi Badenoch is right to set up a commission to explore the future of our ECHR membership in detail, reporting in September👇

Danny Kruger is a thoughtful, decent MP. But I fear his journey with Reform’s big-state outlook will be a tough one for him to swallow.

#Teesworks is the best thing to happen for my area in 50 years, unlocking thousands of new jobs and a fresh start. The Opposition’s campaign isn’t about the public interest - it’s about the Labour Party’s interest, as I set out here. 👀 Full speech:

Welcome to The Great British Breakdown. Where trust is crumbling, especially among Reform voters – and everyone still wants cake. But if you want to restore trust, you need the right ingredients.
