During his decade and a half in charge of The Spectator, Fraser established the magazine as a forthright, leading voice in right-leaning politics in an age of digitalisation, division and disruption (as well as making the title a commercial success in a struggling market).

Biography
Fraser Nelson is a columnist for The Times, having returned to the newspaper after 15 years as editor of The Spectator where he oversaw a doubling of its subscriptions in a market that fell by two-thirds. He has been named Political Columnist of the Year and was voted Editor of the Year by his fellow magazine editors, as well as being cited as one of the most influential journalists working today. His last award was for filmmaking: he has presented four Channel 4 documentaries, most recently on the rise of Reform UK.
Fraser describes himself as an "old-fashioned Adam Smith liberal" and is often seen as a modern, progressive, thoughtful voice on the right of British politics. A frequent commentator on TV (including on Question Time where he has become a regular), radio and in the press, he often gives a sharp, informed, objective insight into policy, ideas and attitudes. Alongside his journalistic duties Fraser has been on the board member of the think tank the Centre for Policy Studies, the Centre for Social Justice, and the Social Mobility Foundation.
