Summary

Nick Timothy is the Conservative Member of Parliament for West Suffolk, a political strategist, writer, and former chief adviser to Prime Minister Theresa May. With deep experience inside Westminster and a sharp critique of Britain’s political class, Nick has become one of the country’s most compelling voices for conservative reform.

In this interview, Nick explains why Britain's political and economic systems are no longer fit for purpose—and why both Labour is failing the nation. We explore the root causes of Britain’s decline: broken economic thinking, a bloated and overreaching state, uncontrolled immigration, and the collapse of cultural confidence. Nick breaks down the dangers of Labour’s tax-and-spend agenda, the betrayal of conservative values, and the urgent need for radical change. He argues that only by restoring true conservative principles, economic resilience, and national self-belief can Britain avoid irreversible decline and rebuild a freer, stronger society.
