The Conservatives haven't actually said very much about 'Freedom' since David Davis' misfiring stunt last month. Yes, Davis has still got his 'David Davis For Freedom' website up and running, but David's concern for our civil liberties, so much championed by liberals, seems to have run out of steam. Strangely, his enthusiasm for individual liberty seems to have e...

When David Davis resigned as an MP last year to force the by-election, many thought this would be last we would see of him on the Conservative front bench. Perhaps not, or at least that's what Hickey thinks in the Sunday Express. Perhaps Chris Grayling's gaffe during the conference will make David Cameron think again. Could this be the return of David Davis?

It's got a mouthful of a name but despite none of the conventional parties standing, there are still 25 other people out there who fancy getting their bums on the green benches in the name of Haltermprice and Howden who aren't David Davis. The Greens are there but they are on the same side as Davis

At the moment, David Davis would probably rather be arrested than return to the shadow cabinet. But the prospect of Davis being asked to come back to the top table looks more likely now than at any point since his spectacular resignation in June. Davis could well be back in his old job after a reshuffle in the New Year. The Damian Green affair has reminded the Tory leadership how much they miss so...

UPDATE: There is an update to this story, published the following day on Lib Dem Voice, in which The Guardian makes clear that the quote on which this posting was based was not uttered by David Davis. David Davis has had many warm words written about him by Lib Dems - myself included - since

Conservative MP David Davis looks back on the moment he quit the Tory frontbench and talks about his relationship with David Cameron. Plus read the full interview transcript David Davis has lifted the lid on the moment he made David Cameron panic by announcing his resignation as shadow home secretary to fight a crusading by-election on civil liberties. Cameron was so worried that the move would un...

To no-one's surprise, David Davis was swept back to the House of Commons as Conservative MP for Haltemprice & Howden winning nearly 72% of the vote. A ringing endorsement - Well, up to a point.Of course, Davis took no risks. Once Nick Clegg had agreed not to contest the seat, Davis was more or less assured of being returned. Labour didn't fall into the trap and also bowed out leaving Davis alone w...

There has been some - but not much - praise for the 'courage' of David Davis in deciding to stand down as an MP and fight a by-election in his Haltemprice constituency. "Who Dares Wins" may well be the motto of the SAS, of whose TA regiment Mr Davis was a member, but I wonder if the now former shadow Home Secretary really realises what he's let himself in for. He says he wants the contest to be a...

After David Davis’ now confirmed sideswipe at old Etonians, I was this evening informed that as I inadvertantly overheard Davis’ conversation, Cameron was hosting his Christmas drinks party. So did David Davis snub the dear leader or was he simply not invited? On an unrelated matter, southend MP David Amess has again refused to let me set

Last night, ex-senior Tory David Davis spoke on Radio 5 about Cameron’s inner circle as totally out of touch with the concerns of the vast majority of people in Britain. There is as yet no transcript of what David Davis said on Radio 5, but Conservative Home puts the ”bombshell” like this...
