Let’s not squander everything we have worked so hard for by mindlessly outsourcing our tobacco harm reduction policy to the World Health Organisation.

Even a cursory glance at the science on this ought to make it clear just how unwise the path of exponential state interference is.

America: Learn from Britain’s mistakes. Obesity is the next pandemic, but new punitive regulations are not the way to confront it.

We are consistently showing our willingness to eschew proven, effective, harm-reduction policies in favour of wildly overdone and entirely unprecedented infringements on our civil liberties.

This intervention would put a strain on a hospitality industry that is already suffering.

In the absence of any evidence, the public health lobby weaponises children's voices to push through unnecessary new punitive taxes and regulations which make life more difficult for consumers and fortify the nanny state.

There is no good reason why the environment should be widely perceived as a socialist issue – that ideological ground is ripe for the taking.

While Public Health England is cracking down on Marmite ads and Instagram pictures of cupcakes, the group of people arguably doing more than anyone else to make Britain healthier are private corporate investors.

Taiwan has suffered just 12 coronavirus deaths but because of the influence of the Chinese Communist Party, it is barred from the World Health Assembly.

It’s time to stand up to this faceless bureaucratic super-state. The reign of the interventionism enthusiasts and the red tape fetishists must come to an end.

It’s time to abandon the nanny state mindset and allow our world-class universities and research institutes to take up their rightful place on the front line of any and all public health battles.

Like Greta Thunberg, the WHO seems to enjoy virtue signalling. But unlike Greta, it cannot be dismissed with a photo opportunity or two. It makes demands.

We can only hope that the Government will keep the consumer front and centre in their minds when crafting their technology policy.

The World Health Organisation was wildly unprepared for the pandemic because it spent so much of its time playing politics with sugar taxes, junk food ad bans and vaping restrictions, rather than serving its purpose.

Sugar taxes and advertising bans don’t work – we need a smarter approach.

A new quango will seek to rein in Silicon Valley and the Chancellor has set his sights on punitive taxes for the uber-successful technology sector.

The government is running out of patience with the technology market and seems poised to intervene.

Sporadic, ill-thought-out Government interventions like banning Marmite adverts are not the answer to obesity.

Obesity is shaping up to be the next global health disaster and if we’re not careful, we might find ourselves as unprepared for the next pandemic as we were for the present one.

Oliver Dowden has been tasked with regulating the internet. If he gets it wrong, social media could become expensive and unusable.

The health benefits are tiny, but the economic damage will be huge.

If Britain is going to embark on a nationwide weight-loss programme, the government should not be in charge of it.

Britain owes a great debt to the victims of China's atrocities. It's time to start paying it back.

British colonial-era laws are being used by the Chinese Communist Party to prosecute pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong.

Perhaps some new big tech regulation might be worthwhile – but its function can't be cash handouts to Rupert Murdoch.

The clock is ticking. With every day that passes without government action, more and more Uighurs are being detained.

The government's latest drive to protect free speech in universities is a terrible idea and its constant attempts to provoke a culture war are embarrassing.

To empower American manufacturers, have a larger influence on the world's stage, and escape China's grasp, Biden must join the next giant global trade agreement.

So long as governments stay out of the way, the rate of innovation in health will only continue to accelerate as time goes on. There is no ceiling on innovation – and that’s as true for obesity as it is for anything else.

Under President Biden, the U.S. can lead the world on climate change. Rejoining the Paris Agreement sends positive signals, but it isn’t enough. It's time to reach across the pond.

Under a thin veil of teaching, Confucius Institutes have allowed Beijing to quietly infiltrate British academia. Why are universities opening themselves up to the direct influence of the Chinese Communist Party?

A whopping 90% of Republicans would view President Trump more favorably if he embraced a conservative approach to tackling climate change.

There are countless inventive, unintrusive, cost-free ways of reducing obesity. So why does the Government insist on damaging nanny statism?

Expectations for next week's Finance Bill are very high. Backbench Tory rebels are expecting a rewrite of entire chunks of last year's Withdrawal Agreement.

A whopping 90% of Republicans would view President Trump more favorably if he embraced a conservative approach to tackling climate change.

China is trying to greenwash its crimes – and we're letting them get away with it. When it comes to the environment, there are no second chances.

A wind-powered nation is a nice idea. But the inconvenient truth is that a few wind turbines can't replace our reliance on fossil fuels. Nuclear power is the only way to quit coal without plunging Britain into darkness.

In Hong Kong, they sent in the riot police. In Taiwan, they will send the military. It's time for the West to stand up to China.

Private companies are doing more than the state ever has to combat climate change. The state is the problem and private enterprise is the solution — not the other way around. More government is never the answer.

The UN refuses to acknowledge Taiwan’s existence. It is beholden to China’s will. What is the point of an international peace project if it reliably does the bidding of a communist dictatorship?

As China reneges on its climate change commitments, now is the perfect time for Britain to step up and lead the way on both renewable energy and de-Sinoficiation by investing in promising clean energy projects around the world.

Strap in for a bumpy ride as the PM has put everything back on the table by reopening the Withdrawal Agreement debate.

Corbynites have walled themselves into a corner. They must oppose both the government and the Opposition. They must be the Opposition’s opposition. And that often means adopting unjustifiable positions, like defending China.

Young voters care about the planet, and the GOP is flat-out refusing to engage on environmental issues. The Republican party must address its climate problem.

Trump's Republicans are climate-denying racists and Biden's Democrats are socialist, statist and authoritarian. Pro-liberty voters are out of options. When did America stop believing in freedom?

Uyghur Muslims are being systematically incarcerated, torn from their loved ones, sterilised and murdered. The CCP does not show a flicker of remorse as it denies what is plain to see. History will judge us for how we respond.

Plenty of groups face institutional barriers to their progress in British academia. Tories are not one of them.

The Home Office is - and always has been - racist. And now we have the data to prove it.

Overhauling our reliance on fossil fuels will represent the world's biggest realignment since the Industrial Revolution. A wind turbine here and a solar panel there simply won’t cut it. We need nuclear power.

There is no reason why you can’t be both pro-capitalism and pro-environment. In fact, being pro-capitalism makes you a much better environmentalist.
