I am pleased the Prime Minister has commented on the surge in food prices, and the impact this is having in the poorest parts of the world.

The Prime Minister today can reflect on the first anniversary of his victory in the Labour leadership election. It would be a good time for him to dwell on what has gone wrong. It is an even better time for him to be positive about how his second year as Leader could be so much better for t...

Instead of saying stories about his running for the Leadership are works of fiction, he should categorically rule out seeking the Prime Ministership or allowing his name to go forward.

I am glad the Prime Minister has reaffirmed his support for free enterprise and markets, whilst calling for proper regulation. This echoes our calls in the Economic Policy Review for better regulation of banks and the credit they extend by the Bank of England, when we warned of the dangers stemming...
