Timeline

2022

On 6 July 2022, O'Brien resigned from the government, citing a lack of confidence in the leadership of Boris Johnson. He resigned in a joint statement with Kemi Badenoch, Alex Burghart, Lee Rowley, and Julia Lopez.

On 7 September 2022, O'Brien was appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department of Health and Social Care, as Minister for Social Care.

On 28 October 2022, O'Brien was re-appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department of Health and Social Care, as Minister for Primary Care and Public Health.

2021

A co-founder of the hawkish China Research Group, on 26 March 2021, it was announced that O'Brien was one of five MPs to be sanctioned by China for spreading what it called "lies and disinformation" about the country. He was subsequently banned from entering China, Hong Kong and Macau, and Chinese citizens and institutions are prohibited from doing business with him.

During 2021, O'Brien and a number of other lockdown proponents authored a website they described as attempting to fight misinformation put out into the public debate by lockdown sceptics styling themselves as 'information warriors'.

In May 2021, O'Brien was appointed as Prime Minister Boris Johnson's adviser on levelling up the UK. In September 2020 he had produced a detailed report setting out the case for levelling up.

On 17 September 2021, O'Brien was appointed Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, during the second cabinet reshuffle of the second Johnson ministry. The role, working under Secretary of State Michael Gove, focussed on the government's Levelling Up policy.

2019

In January 2019, together with Will Tanner and Guy Miscampbell, he published a report on reform of higher education, "A Question Of Degree". It proposed that graduate repayments should be halved, with the cost of this funded by reducing the number of students on what the report called "low value" courses - courses from which graduates do not earn enough of a premium to repay the cost of their study. The BBC reported that "The Onward report urges the government to halve repayments on students loans, by introducing a tax cut for graduates worth 50p in every pound owed" and quoted O'Brien saying: "We should steer people away from courses that don't lead to good outcomes."

In May 2019, O'Brien published "Firing On All Cylinders", a wide-ranging report on economic policy which argued for a new fiscal rule, and a somewhat looser fiscal policy, to enable more investment in public services, particularly in schools and the criminal justice system. The report argued for tax reductions and radically more generous capital allowances to boost investment and tackle Britain's productivity problem. It argued for "bottom up growth" and more generous work allowances in Universal Credit to boost the incomes of low earners and increase employment. The report was praised by several of the contenders in the Conservative Party leadership race which was underway at the time the report was published.

"Small schools and village schools" were the subject of a research note published by O'Brien in July 2019. O’Brien also led a debate in Westminster Hall on the same issue in that month. In Parliament, O'Brien stated that "In 1980 there were 11,464 small primary schools with fewer than 200 pupils, but in 2018 there were just 5,406." He called for increases to the "lump sum" element within the National Funding Formula for Schools in order to support smaller schools, particularly those in rural areas.

2018

In May 2018, he founded the new think tank Onward, together with Will Tanner and Nick Faith. It is chaired by Daniel Finkelstein, the Conservative peer and columnist for The Times.

Between August 2018 and July 2019, O'Brien was Parliamentary Private Secretary (PPS) to ministers at the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. In August 2019, he was appointed as PPS to Justice Minister Robert Buckland.

In June 2018, O'Brien published a report on reforming housing and planning policy, "Green, Pleasant and Affordable". The report argued that reforms to planning law are needed to change where new homes are built, avoid piecemeal development, and ensure that developers pay more towards the costs of the infrastructure that is needed to support new development. It also proposed a new form of affordable rented housing for young people in work.

2017

O'Brien was elected as MP for the safe Conservative-held seat of Harborough in 2017, with a majority of 12,429.

2010

In March 2010, O'Brien co-authored with Ross Clark a wide-ranging book called The Renewal of Government. It was praised by Michael Gove, then Shadow Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, and later Secretary of State for Education, who said that it "lays down with admirable clarity and form a set of radical policies ... which in the field of education I think are peerless".

2000

Between 2000 and 2003, O'Brien worked for the 'No' campaign against Britain joining the Euro. He led the "Vote 2004" group which campaigned for a referendum on the EU's proposed constitution.
