What we're talking about

Labour Conference: The grassroots are in control

Lee Whitehill

21 Sep 2018 - 13:51

This time last year Labour went into its annual conference buoyed by a better than expected general election result and Jeremy Corbyn’s rapturous reception at Glastonbury. 12 months later, after a contentious summer of internal wrangling, a failure to deal effectively with anti-Semitism allegations and a continued onslaught from Fleet Street, conference will be a […]

As the Liberal Democrats gather in Brighton for their annual conference this week, people are asking: what’s the point? The third force in British politics appears to have been reduced to a group of angry bystanders. After losing 49 of their 57 MPs at the 2015 General Election, Brexit should have been a turning point […]

Could next week, 12th June to be precise, signal the beginning of the end for Theresa May’s leadership of the Conservative Party?

Just how complex is the university tuition review going to be?

Holly Ramsey

22 Feb 2018 - 15:39

The UK has one of the most expensive systems of university tuition in the world; a topic ardently debated amongst students, parents, academics and politicians. A wide ranging review was announced on Monday by the Prime Minister into university tuition fees. This review is to be welcomed and is certainly apt, but why is there […]

UK decision time on Brexit fast approaching

Earlier today, Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson used a widely trailed keynote speech at Policy Exchange to set out his vision of a “liberal Brexit”. This was the first in a series of choreographed Cabinet interventions that will take place over the next few days, aimed at breaking the deadlock over the terms of the post-Brexit […]

Over the weekend we heard more about the Labour Party’s plans to bring key services back into the public sector, including the railways and utilities such as the water and energy markets.
