  • Rough Transcript, Check Against Delivery
    1 MICHAEL GOVE MP THE ANDREW MARR SHOW 12TH JULY 2020 MICHAEL GOVE MP Minister for the Cabinet Office (Rough transcript, check against delivery) AM: Mr Gove, welcome. Should face masks be mandatory in shops in England? MG: I don’t think mandatory, no. But I would encourage people to wear face masks when they’re inside in an environment where they’re likely to be mixing with others and where the ventilation may not be as good as it might. So I think that it is basic good manners, courtesy, consideration to wear a face mask if you are, for example, in a shop. AM: But we don’t need the law to do that? MG: Well, I trust people’s good sense. Of course the government at all times does look at the emerging evidence about what the best way to control the disease is. If necessary and if tough measures are required, as we’ve seen in Leicester – obviously a very different situation – then tough measures will be taken. But on the whole my view is that it’s always better to trust to people’s common sense to give them their sense of what is wise, and I think that individuals and businesses are responding well to that lead. AM: You’re talking about borders today. Are Britain’s borders going to be ready and secure by the end of this year? MG: Yes, I think they will be. AM: Because your colleague, Liz Truss, as we know, as expressed some real worries about this. She said in her letter that she wanted assurances ‘that we’ll be able to deliver full control at ports by July 2021 and that plans are in place from January to 2 MICHAEL GOVE MP mitigate the risk of goods being circumvented from ports intercepting port controls.’ In other words, the whole thing is tight by then.

  • 6 Things We Learned from the Tory Leadership Debate
    6 things we learned from the Tory Leadership Debate By Bethan Tolley, Communications Officer at the Centre for Brexit Studies Five men, one job. Last night BBC One played host to their very first Tory Leadership Debate. ‘Our Next Prime Minister’ saw all five remaining contenders – Boris Johnson, Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove, Sajid Javid and Rory Stewart – battle it out on live TV with a series of questions on various topics from the great British public. Here’s the six things we learned from the debate… Where do they really stand on Brexit? Of course, a huge amount of the debate was all about Brexit and if we really will be leaving on the 31st October. Boris Johnson stated on several occasions that the UK will absolutely leave the EU by the 31st October, because otherwise the Conservative party face a “catastrophic loss of confidence in politics.” On the other hand, Jeremy Hunt stated that he would have the UK leave the EU on that date if there was no option of another deal, however, if there was a prospect that we were nearly there, then I would take a bit longer.”. Michael Gove stated that as he started this (leave campaign) “I will finish it – I will make sure that we leave the European Union in good order”. However, he also agreed with Jeremy Hunt that he would extend if he needed to – but only by a couple of days. Sajid Javid stated that it is fundamental that we leave the EU by the 31st October: “We’ve got to learn from our mistakes.

  • National Interests and the Paradox of Foreign Aid Under Austerity: Conservative Governments and the Domestic Politics of International Development Since 2010
    National interests and the paradox of foreign aid under austerity: Conservative governments and the domestic politics of international development since 2010 Keywords: foreign aid: DfID; Conservatives; austerity; Brexit; national interest Acknowledgments: the ideas underpinning this paper have been informally discussed with a wide variety of colleagues, and I am grateful for their insights, although none are implicated in the final product. I would particularly like to thank the organisers (Nadia Molenaers, Joerg Faust and Jeroen Joly) and participants at ‘The Domestic Dimensions of Development Cooperation’, a conference at the Institute of Development Policy and Management University of Antwerp, Belgium October 24–25, 2016 Abstract Since 2010, successive Conservative-led Coalition and Conservative governments in the UK have imposed domestic austerity while maintaining foreign aid commitments. They have done so in the teeth of considerable hostility from influential sections of the media, many Conservative MPs and party members, and large sections of the voting public. This paper explains this apparently paradoxical position by analysing these governments’ increasingly explicit stance that aid serves ‘the national interest’ in a variety of ways. While not a new message from donors, post-2010 Conservative governments have significantly strengthened this narrative, with the (uncertain) intent of legitimising foreign aid expenditure. Introduction In 2010 a Conservative-led coalition with the Liberal Democrats displaced ‘New Labour’ from government in the United Kingdom after 13 years in power. In 2014, the Conservative Party achieved a narrow electoral majority to become the sole party of government. In 2016, following the Brexit referendum, a new Conservative government was formed under Prime Minister Theresa May.
